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.

With a no limits approach, we can rise to any challenge. Whatever the question, the concern, or the risk, we can get the right people in a room and find the right answer. Our collective power is also helping us to change the insurance narrative – doing right by our clients while using insurance as a tool to build resilience for individuals, businesses, and communities. From pro bono work to insuring COVID-19 vaccine development to de-risking the carbon market, we are using our skills, knowledge, and networks to make a difference and speed positive change in the world around us.

We are actively looking for Administration Team Members, to join our Howden Consumer & Local Commercial team. This is a great opportunity to join a highly successful organisation, on a three-month contract for June, July & August 2026, in our Redditch office-based Team.

There will be the option to work full 8-hour days for either two or three days a week. This will be negotiable with successful candidates.

About you:

• You are looking to gain experience in an office working environment.
• You will have good people skills and are enthusiastic to learn. We don’t require you any previous experience as we offer on-site training and coaching to support you.
• You will be ambitious. We give you all the tools, all we ask from you is the desire to succeed.
• You will be able to follow instructions in your duties which will include post packaging, light computer duties and receptionist phone duties.

What do we offer in return?

• 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.
