Flexible Benefits

Give your people the power to choose what matters most

Rethink what benefits mean to your people

When it comes to employee engagement, one size never fits all. Today, 85% of employers are planning to expand their flexible benefits offering. Why? Because real engagement starts with real choice.

At Howden, we help you turn your benefits package into something personal. Flexible benefits let employees tailor their perks to suit their lifestyle, family and future — whether it’s extra holiday, dental cover, or cycling to work in style.

That’s not just flexibility. That’s freedom.


Why flexible benefits matter

Modern workforces are diverse. So your benefits strategy should be too.

Flexible benefits give your people the option to exchange part of their salary for the things that actually make a difference in their lives — with costs usually spread over the year for easier budgeting. It's practical. It's personal. And when done right, it helps attract, engage and retain the talent you need.

Need a new pair of glasses? A gym membership? More time off? A better pension?
With the right flex scheme, it’s all on the table.

Make it seamless with smart tech

A well-designed platform does more than deliver benefits. It drives engagement. Your people can access everything in one place, anytime, anywhere — perfect for a hybrid workforce. And on the admin side? It makes reporting, approvals and payroll integration refreshingly easy.

Built around your business

Before we talk platforms, we start with people. Your people.
