    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.

    Our flat structure and entrepreneurial spirit help us attract the best people and empower them to be the best version of themselves.

    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.

    Permanent In November 1994, David Howden founded a business that was literally the smallest insurance broker in the world.

    A minority external investor with a long-term outlook
    3 friends (and a dog)
    A commitment to building a business with independence enshrined in its fabric

    Today, the business has a global footprint of more than 14,500 employees in 50 countries spanning Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Asia Pacific and the Americas.
