Howden Group Holdings

Howden Group has always been a company with a difference – with employee ownership at its heart and clients at the front of its mind.

Founded in 1994 as a specialist D&O broker, and from the modest beginnings of our first five years reaching into Europe, we are now the largest European insurance intermediary group in the world and the largest outside the US, with approaching £1bn in revenues and managing premiums of more than £10bn.

The Group comprises Howden, the international challenger broker, and DUAL, the largest international MGA. We are a group of international experts with a local touch and a digital backbone.

With operations in 45 countries across Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, the US and Latin America, and over 10,000 employees from Berlin to Brisbane, Howden Group has grown over the last quarter of a century as the group challenging the status quo for clients every day and in every market in which we operate.

More about howden group holdings

Own your destiny

Our people create their own destinies, and it’s no coincidence that they also make up our largest shareholder group.

Our business succeeds by allowing our people to make a mark in the areas they care about most: personal development, volunteering and fundraising for charity, or creating new insurance products that address society’s greatest challenges.

People first

Add a culture of responsibility, respect and results to our insurance experience and expertise worldwide and you create a freedom to perform that allows people to create many different paths to success.

Our culture

We have worked hard to build a culture that is welcoming and supportive. We hire people with the talent to succeed and the potential to grow - and we help them do just that. Howden is a global business with an entrepreneurial mindset and we put our people first in everything we do.

We value independent thinkers, celebrate different perspectives and experiences, and strive to make Howden a great place to work.

Employee Benefits

We know that separate home and work lives don’t really exist. If you’re happy and healthy at home you’re more likely to be happy and fulfilled at work - and vice versa. That’s why we do our best to support our people in every aspect of their lives, and our employee benefits are designed to do just that.

Big on inclusion

There is a lovely, famous quote about diversity being invited to the party, and inclusion being asked to dance. At Howden, we like to take things one step further, and give everyone a chance to play their part in organising the party.

We’ve always been committed to the idea that everyone’s voice should be heard. Every employee should feel valued and respected.

We want everyone to feel that they belong.

Respect at Howden

RESPECT is a large group of employee volunteers who are passionate about nurturing and developing Howden’s inclusive culture. It is an employee-led initiative - this is highly unusual in a large company, so we are told - and it goes far beyond box ticking.

Inclusion is something Howden people genuinely care about and support.

Our mission is to make the employee experience more inclusive for everyone working at Howden. And we do this in several ways: Creating awareness for key issues, educating colleagues, partnering with charities and D&I experts, hosting events and collaborating with HR to ensure our policies are modern, relevant and work for everyone.

Because we are employee-led, we can respond to the issues that our colleagues really care about, move faster and have a bigger impact than HR alone.

There are several sub-groups working on key inclusion topics. Anyone can join, because everyone is welcome.

We tackle the big issues

  • Gender balance
  • Multiculturalism
  • Wellbeing and Mental Health
  • Our behaviours
  • LGBTQ+
  • Disability
  • Women's health
  • Parents at work
