Service is everything to us. Seriously. Whatever you need, we’ll configure it your way.

We have over 24,000 people on our global team, and everyone is a specialist in something. 

We have teams specialising in smaller and larger businesses – we are well resourced and care about all our clients (it’s an employee-owned business thing).

So whatever the size and scope of your insurance needs, we are confident we can partner you with the expertise you need.

That might be a 1-2-1 chat or assembling a project team across 90 countries - whatever great service looks like for you, we can make it happen.

Employees

Employee ownership at our heart

While we are backed by patient, long-term investment capital, employees will always remain our largest shareholder group.

This has a noticeable effect on the culture. At Howden, everyone has a voice. Ideas are embraced, effort gets rewarded and meritocracy is real. All in an environment where people enjoy their work and have fun.

We foster an environment where people feel valued and cared for, and enjoy rising to every new challenge.
