Powering the World from Hameln: REINTJES develops and manufactures customised Gearboxes for all Types of Ships

Small and large marine gearboxes from Hameln. Primarily for yachts, ferries and workboats. That is the core competence of REINTJES GmbH.

But we have much more to offer than maritime propulsion technology. One of our greatest strengths? We are problem solvers and concept developers for shipping companies, yacht owners, ferry companies and states around the world.

And because we always want to be close to our customers in order to shape the future of the maritime industry together, we have subsidiaries around the globe. More than 500 people work for us worldwide. And gradually, the number is set to increase. REINTJES wants to continue to grow and develop steadily – and for that we need active support.

We have put together exactly what we offer our (new) employees in our careers section. You can also find vacancies there and apply directly. Just click your way in.

Modern with a Wealth of Experience

What else distinguishes us, besides products made in Germany with a great deal of future potential and a large portion of internationality? A balanced mix of tradition and modernity.

REINTJES has been around since 1879. Over this long period, we have built up a great deal of expertise in marine gearboxes.

We refine this knowledge every day and incorporate it into our range. We are also modern and combine social features as a responsible employer with sustainable accents. As a foundation company, we stand for security and are committed to our team at various levels at our company headquarters in Hameln. A company daycare center and comprehensive health management are just two examples.

What’s more, we not only enjoy working together, but also strengthen our team spirit outside of the office or factory with regular events such as a summer party, Christmas party and dragon boat races on the Weser.

And to show that sustainability is not just a hackneyed phrase for us, we are adding hybrid and fully electric marine gearboxes, a corporate carbon footprint, a photovoltaic system and much more to our product range.

If you would like to learn more about us and our team spirit or would like to join Team #REINTYES, please feel free to contact us.

REINTJES CEO sees global presence as a prerequisite for customer proximity – and wants to continue on the path of internationalisation

Eleven subsidiaries and over 500 employees in all relevant markets around the world. In addition, numerous global service partners. Over the past decades, REINTJES has developed into a true global player in the gear sector.

But how was it possible to make the leap from the small mechanical workshop founded by Theodor Reintjes in 1879 to a company with a global reputation? Primarily through this dense network of company headquarters and sales and service partners.

„With only locations in Germany and no ability to be on site with customers quickly, we would not play an international role,“ says REINTJES Managing Director Klaus Deleroi. At the same time, however, this orientation is also challenging: despite the physical distance, a framework is needed to create unity. „We have been very successful in this regard in recent years. There is a good exchange between the headquarters in Hamelin and our companies, and also between the companies themselves,“ says Deleroi.
