Job description

Who are we?

Howden is a global insurance group with employee ownership at its heart. Together, we have pushed the boundaries of insurance. We are united by a shared passion and no-limits mindset, and our strength lies in our ability to collaborate as a powerful international team comprised of 24,000 employees spanning over 56 countries.

People join Howden for many different reasons, but they stay for the same one: our culture. It’s what sets us apart, and the reason our employees have been turning down headhunters for years. Whatever your priorities – work / life balance, career progression, sustainability, volunteering – you’ll find like-minded people driving change at Howden.

This is a handson role where youll learn how data is used in business decisions, working closely with brokers, data specialists, and technology teams. Youll help turn complex datasets into clear insights that support clients and business across sport, media, and entertainment. You don’t need to know everything on day one. We’re looking for strong foundations, curiosity, and the motivation to learn fast. 

 

With support and mentoring from experienced analysts, you’ll: 

  • Work with brokers and business stakeholders to understand realworld problems and translate them into data questions.

  • Clean, analyse and validate data from multiple sources to ensure accuracy and reliability. 

  • Build insights, visuals and case studies that are used in client discussions and proposals. 

  • Spot patterns and trends in data and help explain what they mean in practice. 

  • Use modern data and analytics tools to turn raw data into clear, actionable outputs. 

  • Collaborate with data, technology and analytics teams across the wider group. 

  • Document your work and follow bestpractice data standards. 

 

What we are looking for: 

 

Essential 

  • A degree (or equivalent) in a numerate or analytical subject (e.g. maths, statistics, data science, economics, engineering, sciences) 

  • Strong attention to detail and logical thinking 

  • A genuine interest in how data can influence business decisions 

  • Confidence explaining ideas to both technical and nontechnical audiences 

  • An inquisitive, problemsolving mindset 

 

Technical skills (you don’t need all of these on day one): 

  • Experience using Excel for analysis 

  • Exposure to Python, SQL and/or R through study, projects or internships 

  • Familiarity with data visualisation tools such as Power BI (or similar) 

  • Interest in learning modern data platforms (Databricks) 

 

Nice to have (but not required) 

  • University or personal projects involving real datasets 

  • Basic understanding of data modelling or data pipelines 

  • Curiosity about GenAI / LLMs and how they can support analytics 

  • An interest in insurance, sport, entertainment, or commercial analytics 

 

What you’ll get 

 

  • A structured earlycareer role with onthejob learning and mentoring 

  • Exposure to client and operations work  

  • Training and professional qualifications (e.g. Chartered Insurance Institute) 

  • Competitive salary, generous pension and private medical cover 

 

What do we offer in return?

A career that you define. At Howden, we value diversity – there is no one Howden type. Instead, we’re looking for individuals who share the same values as us:

  • Our successes have all come from someone brave enough to try something new

  • We support each other in the small everyday moments and the bigger challenges

  • We are determined to make a positive difference at work and beyond
