## Who are we?

## Howden Re Market Engagement & Strategy Summer Internship

**Location:** London

**Start date:** June 2027

**Salary:** £32,500 pro-rata for 10 weeks

**Duration:** 10-week programme

**Role type:** Intern (Paid), Fixed Term (Trainee)

**Build Connections, Gain Real Business Insight and Shape the Future of Reinsurance**

If you’re curious about how global businesses manage risk, make strategic decisions, and build powerful industry partnerships, this could be the perfect way to spend your summer. Join Howden Re’s Market Engagement & Strategy team and discover how they manage strategic relationships across the reinsurance market.

**This is not a traditional broking role.** It’s a relationship-focused and strategic role that combines communication, organisation, project support, and data analysis.

The 10-week programme is designed to give you meaningful exposure to the world of reinsurance, while helping you develop the knowledge, professional skills, and confidence to kick start your career.

Our programme also offers a direct pathway into our Autumn 2028 graduate roles, subject to business needs and individual performance.

## Please read before submitting

You may only apply to one summer internship programme for our 2027 intake. Submitting duplicate applications will result in additional applications not being considered.

## What you’ll be doing

You will begin with a structured induction before joining the Market Engagement & Strategy team to work alongside experienced specialists on real client projects.

During the programme, you’ll:

  
- Take part in meetings with reinsurance companies and learn how the team manages relationships with them.
  
- Learn how the team gathers financial data and market feedback from internal brokers and translates this into useful market insights for senior stakeholders.
  
- Support with preparing materials for internal and external presentations.
  
- Play a key role in preparing for the Monte Carlo Reinsurance conference, including arranging meetings, capturing key discussions, and producing clear notes to share with the wider business.

## Who are we looking for?

No insurance experience is needed—we’ll teach you everything you need to know.

You’ll be:

  
- In your penultimate year of study from any degree background.
  
- Someone who enjoys building relationships and communicating with a wide range of people.
  
- Willing to contribute your thoughts and ideas during team discussions.
  
- Organised with strong attention to detail.
  
- Able to take ownership of tasks and work independently.
  
- Comfortable working with basic data.
  
- Adaptable and comfortable working in fast-paced environments where priorities can shift.

## Eligibility

To be eligible for our programme, you must have the full and unrestricted right to work in the UK.

## Application process

Our application process is designed to help you show your potential, not to test what you already know.

  
- **Online application form – no CV required:** You won’t be asked to submit a CV. Please upload a blank document on the application form.
  
- **Online gamified assessment:** Games to help us understand your natural strengths and how you approach different situations. There are no right or wrong answers, and you can complete this stage on your phone or laptop.
  
- **Pre-recorded video interview:** Record your answers to a few questions using your phone or laptop, giving you the chance to tell us more about yourself in your own time in a relaxed setting.
  
- **Assessment centre:** An in-person assessment centre at one of our offices. You’ll take part in group activities and meet the team in a relaxed setting. Travel costs for the day will be covered.

## Why should you apply?

At Howden, people are at the heart of everything we do. As an employee-owned business, we believe success is built through collaboration, learning, and supporting one another. You’ll gain exposure to an exciting global industry, receive structured development throughout the summer, and build relationships that could shape your future career.

## What you’ll also benefit from

  
- £32,500 pro-rata over the 10 weeks.
  
- Relocation support may be available for interns who need to relocate to take part in the programme (assessed case-by-case and subject to eligibility criteria).
  
- Opportunity to receive a deferred graduate offer for Autumn 2028.
  
- Excellent training and development schemes and accelerated career progression.
  
- Access to a buddy to support you throughout your internship.
  
- 6 days of leave, fully paid, plus bank holidays.
  
- Access to discounted personal health policies as well as a range of insurance products.

## 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.

## Reasonable adjustments

We’re committed to providing reasonable accommodations at Howden to ensure that our positions align well with your needs. Besides the usual adjustments such as software, IT, and office setups, we can also accommodate other changes such as flexible hours or hybrid working where possible.

If you’re excited by this role but have some doubts about whether it’s the right fit for you, send us your application—if your profile fits the role’s criteria, we will be in touch to assist with setting you up with any reasonable adjustments you may require.
