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 23,000 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.

We’re on an exciting journey to elevate our global talent attraction strategy and we’re looking for a creative, curious, and hands‑on Recruitment Marketing & Early Careers Project Specialist to join us. This role offers an excellent platform for someone looking to grow their career in recruitment marketing and early careers, with the opportunity to contribute to global projects, work closely with senior stakeholders, and learn within a supportive, team‑oriented environment.

In this role, you’ll focus on two key areas. First, you’ll explore existing Employee Value Proposition (EVP) projects and help build global recruitment marketing toolkits and frameworks that unite our brand globally while allowing local adaptation. Over time, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping and managing our global EVP strategy. Second, you’ll support the Early Careers Lead on strategic projects that strengthen our early careers offering, contributing to initiatives that attract and inspire graduates, interns, and apprentices across our global footprint.
