Let’s be honest. Airbus is unlike any other company. Grab a coffee, sit back and let us present you a summary of the onboarding process.

Overview

 

The onboarding process includes several activities, events and tasks. Completing them all can take up to a month. They can be grouped into 5 categories.

  • Company
  • Human Resources
  • Team
  • Tools
  • Practical services

 

Onboarding actors

 

Onboarding Actors (infographic)

Manager
Your manager will introduce Airbus to you at a local level (department, team, projects, tools, processes…).

Managers are also in charge of preparing your work setup (laptop, mobile, equipment, tools…). This can take quite some time so you will likely finalise this activity when joining Airbus.

If you don't know who your manager is, contact the HR person who interviewed you during the recruitment phase or your temporary agency.

Buddy
A buddy is a person who guides you through your onboarding phase. If your manager hasn’t picked one, you can ask a team mate to be your buddy.

Human Resource Business Partner (HRBP)
The Human Resource Business Partner (HRBP) takes care of the contract phase. If you have any questions related to HR (eg. issue with the contract, security clearance, finding out who your manager is…), contact your HRBP.

If you don't have your HRBP details, ask them from the HR person you were in contact with during your recruitment phase.

Local HR and HR representatives
Local HR supports the HRBP. If need be, your HRBP will connect you to your local HR.
HR Representatives organise physical or digital onboarding events & presentations during which Airbus is presented at a high level.

IM representatives
They focus on digital identity, software access, and hardware’s management.

IT helpdesk
If you need support with your security clearance, account, software and hardware contact them:

  • Germany +49 30 31 17 40 44
  • France +33 1 57 32 48 05
  • UK +44 20 35 64 96 90
  • Spain +44 20 35 64 96 90

The Badge offices are Airbus reception desks, you will find one at each Airbus site’s main entrance/s. This is why they're sometimes referred to as Welcome desks.

Their staff are also in charge of delivering and managing badges (permanent, temporary…), hence Badge office.

Some Badge offices are also Security buildings if their staff handles parking passes and accesses.

Any badge related request is handled by the badge office.

First Steps

 

Onboarding Process (infographic)


To make your onboarding & induction more efficient, we have created dedicated intranet pages (tasks to accomplish, useful information & links). You will be able to access them from your 1st day.

First Day event

Each site manages locally, they organise physical or digital events on the 1st day or the first weeks after arrival.


You will be given group presentations on various topics and have the opportunity to network with the speakers as well as other new employees.
 

For all Newcomers we have a dedicated HUB page with all the information stored for you. You can retrieve all presentations and necessary documents. You will receive a link to these pages when you join.
