#ShapeSpaces - our culture
Entering new spaces, shaping and designing them, grasping and changing the unknown. That’s our thing. We love to discover new things, try them out and develop them further—and we love to infect others with our enthusiasm for doing so. We call it #ShapeSpaces. Find an overview of the values that are important to us here.
Our core values
#ShapeSpaces
“Shape Spaces” expresses the key element of the zeb culture: shaping things. With expertise, courage and creativity, we drive the transformation of the financial sector forward. We love to discover new things, try them out and develop them further. We are looking for people who overcome boundaries, shape the future and infect others with their enthusiasm.
#Bemultiversal
We work multiversally – always, without exception and fortunately. In complex situations, we show our strengths. We explore, we experiment, and we expand horizons. Why? Because we like to break new ground, because we have the courage to make mistakes in order to learn from them for the future.
#Divedeep
Even in the greatest transformation, one thing remains the same: we dive deep into topics – always and everywhere. We want to know a lot, get to the bottom of things, view them from all angles. Everything we do has our full attention. We look at people with interest and delight and pay close attention to details.
Creating a "Home for talents"
zeb sees itself as a home for talents – a place where the focus is on developing and promoting talent. We create an environment in which you can flourish and fully develop your abilities. A selection of further training opportunities will help you deepen your knowledge and learn new skills. In addition, zeb has clear career paths that allow you to grow within the company. Our retention programs are also designed to promote your talent. The zeb.talents program, for example, offers former interns the opportunity to stay in close contact with zeb even after their internship, to deepen their specialist knowledge in workshops and to expand their personal network. Through events, networking and a shortened application process, zeb supports talents in shaping their individual careers. zeb is more than a workplace – it’s a home for talents who want to actively shape their careers.

Reasoning beats hierarchy
Flat hierarchies are important to us – we leave no room for competitive thinking. Instead, the way we work together is characterized by team spirit and mutual support. As our employees have different areas of expertise in a wide range of topics from the banking and insurance industry, helping each other is essential. In our project work, too, we don’t focus on positions, but on knowledge and opinions. This means that every opinion is heard. And regardless of whether you are an intern, apprentice, Consultant or Partner – at zeb, we’re on first-name terms throughout the company.
University roots
As we were founded by two professors from the University of Münster, Prof. Dr. Bernd Rolfes and Prof. Dr. Henner Schierenbeck, we keep that university spirit alive. Every year, we organize the zeb.Uni, an innovation conference for all employees, where we network, present current projects and discuss hypotheses.
