Working at Rabobank means making the world a little bit better: Growing a better world together. So how do we do that? We believe in the power of cooperation and in working together on solutions that are good for you and the world around you. Do you have the cooperative mindset we’re looking for?
Our cooperative mindset
Today’s Rabobank started life in 1898 as a cooperative lending bank for farmers. That means that the bank has members instead of shareholders and that we reinvest some of our profits into our communities. As a cooperative bank, Rabobank is dedicated to creating a future-proof society and to tackling the major societal challenges of our times. We work to find solutions which benefit everyone: our clients, their neighborhoods, and the world. That’s the essence of our cooperative mindset and our culture. It determines how we do things and how we interact with clients, each other, and society.
Values and behaviors
No matter what their job, everyone at Rabobank is guided by a set of shared values and behaviors. They shape our identity, reflect what our company is all about, and serve as the guiding principles for everything we do.

It’s important to us that all employees feel able to convey these values and behaviors in the work they do every day. That’s how each of us in our own way can contribute to Rabobank’s mission.
A cooperative that keeps on learning and getting results
It should be clear by now that we’re proud of our cooperative mindset. It’s what drives us and contributes to our many achievements. At the same time, the world around us is changing and we need to adapt how we interact with our customers, each other, and society. As we become a cooperative that keeps on learning and focuses on results, our culture is changing too. We think this will help us continue to deliver the quality and speed which our customers expect.
