As a global industry leader, we must attract, develop, and retain top talent to create continuous value in a complex marketplace. By building a robust talent pipeline, rewarding exceptional performance, and fostering an environment that promotes open dialogue and engagement, our employees can thrive, manifest their talents, and grow their careers.
As one global team, RGA is committed to attracting, developing, and retaining diverse, world-class talent who are proud to work for our organization. Our robust people and culture strategies are deeply rooted in our enterprise business strategy, inspiring exceptional performance and driving our success as a company. Our people are our greatest asset, which is why we intentionally and thoughtfully invest in the development, growth, and wellbeing of our employees.
In 2024, we launched a multi-year, enterprise-wide initiative to modernize our global talent acquisition and management capabilities, processes, and technologies, allowing us to better connect talent with opportunity. By ensuring we attract top-tier talent, promote their development and mobility across the organization, and improve stakeholder experiences throughout the talent life cycle, RGA is strengthening our market position in a competitive global talent environment and building an engaged, growth-oriented workforce to support our future.
RGA recruiters are now empowered to connect with candidates through the right channel, at the right time, increasing our success in attracting the best and brightest to RGA. Cutting-edge tools, including a new candidate relationship management platform, a new applicant tracking system, and an enhanced RGA Careers site have modernized the candidate experience. Candidates describe the new application process as “intuitive,” “simple,” and “streamlined.”
Throughout the year, we prioritized individual development as well as career planning and equipped our people leaders to engage in regular coaching and feedback conversations with their teams. Transparency and dialogue are central to our efforts as we believe frequent, actionable feedback is the best way for employees to achieve peak performance. Continuous learning, feedback, and growth not only power individual development, but also advance RGA’s performance as an enterprise.
Grounded in our philosophy that development fuels performance and performance drives rewards, RGA launched the Future of Performance and Rewards in 2024. This reimagined approach to employee development and performance management is simple, effective, and meaningful for our employees, strengthening the connection between performance and rewards. The program also empowers managers to use their discretion to differentiate, recognize, and reward exceptional performance.
RGA employees power our performance as a company. In return, we reward them for their performance, contribution, and dedication to RGA. Each employee is unique, so we offer a comprehensive benefits program to support our diverse and growing workforce, while keeping employee wellbeing at the heart of RGA’s Total Rewards.
We recently enhanced our compelling rewards packages with several new offerings:
