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.\nPeople 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.\nRole Overview\nRole Overview\nThe 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.\nFor 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.\nThe 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.\nIn summary:\nFocus: dedicated to Aviation team data, reporting and analytics.\nWorking pattern: approximately 25% of each week embedded with the Data & Analytics team.\nDevelopment model: technical training, tooling and back-end (data lake / SQL) access provided by the Data & Analytics team and applied directly to Aviation work.\nWhat You’ll Do\nWork with brokers and business stakeholders to understand real-world problems and translate them into data and AI questions.\nExplore and prototype data ideas, helping to shape user stories and analytical approaches.\nClean, analyse and validate data from multiple sources - including premium and placement data, claims experience and underwriter / portfolio performance - to ensure accuracy and reliability.\nSpot patterns, trends and anomalies, and help explain what they mean in practice.\nUse modern data and analytics tools to turn raw data into clear, actionable outputs - reports, dashboards and analytics that support broker lineslips / facilities and senior management, both regular and ad-hoc.\nSupport the use of AI-enabled tools to automate repetitive data entry, cleansing and reconciliation, and to accelerate the production of reports and analytics.\nCollaborate with data, technology and analytics teams across the wider group.\nApply appropriate human review, document your work and follow best-practice data and AI standards. Break problems into steps an agent can execute, and use good judgement about when to lean on AI and when to do the work yourself.\nWhat You’ll Grow Into\nAs you build aviation domain knowledge and technical depth, the role broadens to include:\nActing as a data and analytics point of contact for the team’s lineslip portfolio - building and maintaining reporting suites covering bordereaux, income, claims and utilisation.\nProducing consolidated, portfolio-level analytics to support renewal strategy and market presentations.\nIdentifying data-quality issues in lineslip records and working with brokers to resolve them at source.\nActing as a business-analyst liaison between the broking team and IT / AI development resources - defining requirements, mapping workflows and setting data-capture standards.\nParticipating in testing (UAT) and supporting brokers using AI-enabled tools: troubleshooting, onboarding users and maintaining guides and training materials.\nWhat We’re Looking For\nEssential\nA degree (or equivalent) in a numerate or analytical subject - e.g. maths, statistics, data science, economics, engineering or sciences.\nStrong attention to detail and logical thinking.\nA genuine interest in how data can influence business decisions.\nConfidence explaining ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences.\nAn inquisitive, problem-solving mindset - comfortable with modern AI tooling and keen to keep pace with a fast-moving landscape.\nTechnical skills (you don’t need all of these on day one)\nExperience using Excel for analysis.\nExposure to Python, SQL and/or R through study, projects or internships.\nFamiliarity with data-visualisation tools such as Power BI (or similar).\nInterest in learning modern data platforms (e.g. Databricks).\nExperience using GenAI / LLMs to support operational workflows and analytics.\nAny exposure to automation tools (e.g. Power Automate) and to producing presentation materials is an advantage.\nNice to have (but not required)\nUniversity or personal projects involving real datasets.\nA basic understanding of data modelling or data pipelines.\nAn interest in - or willingness to learn - insurance and aviation. Domain knowledge can be developed on the job.\nKey Stakeholders\nEmma Roberts and the wider Aviation team.\nAviation brokers and client executives.\nMarkets / insurers (indirectly, through placement data and reporting).\nCentral Data & Analytics team; IT / AI development teams.\nOperations teams.\nHow Success Will Be Measured\nAccuracy and timeliness of reporting.\nQuality and usefulness of data insights.\nData quality and completeness across the aviation portfolio.\nGrowing confidence and independence with the data platform and analytical tooling.\nAdoption and effectiveness of AI-enabled tools in day-to-day work.\nProgress against agreed learning and development goals.\nTools & Systems (Typical)\nMicrosoft Excel.\nPower BI.\nSQL / data lake (e.g. Databricks).\nPower Automate / Power Platform.\nSharePoint / Dataverse\nGenAI tools (e.g. Copilot / Claude) for reporting and process support.\nWhat You’ll Get\nA structured early-career role with on-the-job learning and mentoring.\nExposure to client and operations work across a specialist line of business.\nTraining and professional qualifications (e.g. Chartered Insurance Institute).\nCompetitive salary, generous pension and private medical cover.\nWhat do we offer in return?\nA career that you define.
