The posting

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.

  • Assess profitability by business line.
  • Evaluate investment opportunities, business cases and strategic initiatives.
  • Support revenue optimisation and operational efficiency initiatives.
  • Partner with broking leadership teams to understand business priorities and challenges.
  • Facilitate collaboration across finance, operations, compliance, HR and commercial teams.
  • Present findings and recommendations to senior management in a clear and actionable manner.
  • Support transformation and change initiatives.
  • Identify opportunities to improve processes, reporting and management information.

About You:

  • Minimum 5 years' experience in a business partnering, commercial finance, strategy or operational performance role.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities.
  • Proven experience influencing senior stakeholders.
