Data Analyst - Specialty

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.

The role is dedicated to the Aviation team. Its primary focus is to support our Senior Data Analyst, Aviation and ultimately the wider Aviation team with data analysis, reporting and analytics; all of the role’s deliverables relate to the aviation portfolio.

For the first year, you will spend dedicated time each week embedded with the central Data & Analytics team. That team provides the formal training, tooling and access to the “back end” — the data lake, SQL and detailed data-analytical environment — that sits behind the Aviation team’s reporting, and the role applies that capability directly to Aviation work.

The Aviation team’s data function is currently led by deep domain knowledge — over 20 years of aviation insurance experience across claims, finance, broking and account management — together with a clear understanding of the data and the outputs the team needs. This role complements that domain expertise with formal analytical and technical depth (data-lake access, SQL and structured data analysis), developed and supported through the Data & Analytics team.

- Focus: dedicated to Aviation team data, reporting and analytics.

- Working pattern: approximately 25% of each week embedded with the Data & Analytics team.

- Development model: technical training, tooling and back-end (data lake / SQL) access provided by the Data & Analytics team and applied directly to Aviation work.

As you build aviation domain knowledge and technical depth, the role broadens to include:

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