    Howden Group Holdings has recognised that attracting and retaining the right talent is of paramount importance to the continued success of the Group. We therefore need to attract individuals of the highest calibre through a recruitment process that is free from bias and discrimination, yet aligned to our commercial ambitions. Internal mobility plays an important role for the Group in retaining expertise, experience and talent by enabling employees to pursue their individual career goals and achieve their ambitions. We recognise that all people have a fundamental need and desire for on-going development and growth, and we also recognise that the best candidate for a role may already work inside the organisation so we encourage you to look internally for the next step in your career.

    Our Culture: People First

    We've travelled far since opening our first office in 1994. Back then we were local experts – based in London, with direct access to the world's biggest insurance market. We're still locals, and we still deliver the right advice and the right insurance to our clients. But now, we're local all over the world. With 15,000 global colleagues and a partner network spanning more than 100 territories, we are the largest independent insurance broker in the world. But our values haven't changed since day one, when we set out to create a company grounded in:

    • employee-ownership model
    • external investors
    • trust and integrity born of friendship
    • Expertise
    • Independence

    Our focus on being a people-first business has always been at the very heart of Howden. Our vision was to create an independent business with a unique culture; one that would survive and thrive as a business controlled by the people working for it. Our employee ownership model sets us apart in the market. It's created a culture of collaboration and innovation, where we're driven to think bigger and empowered to challenge convention. Our flat structure and entrepreneurial spirit help us attract the best people and empower them to be the best version of themselves. And when we bring in and nurture great talent, more follows. That makes us better – and that's better for everyone.

    Diversity & Inclusion

    At Howden we consider our people our chief competitive advantage and as such we treat colleagues, candidates, clients, and business partners with equality, fairness and respect, regardless of their age, disability, race, religion or belief, gender, sexual orientation, marital status or family circumstances.
