The team at Howden have been amazing. Sorting out the right insurance at the right price for a hardware technology start up is complicated. I just kept getting quotes that seemed excessive and not appropriate for my type of business. Howden took the time to understand my business, explain to me the types of insurance and what I needed and then went and found me a much more competitive quote. It is a huge relief to have someone like Howden looking out for you and wanting the right cover. So thankful for their support.

As a Commercial Account Executive and team leader at Howden, my role allows me to work closely with customers and insurers to develop bespoke policies that protect businesses. By building strong client relationships and knowing that no single approach is the right one for every company and individual, I take the time to understand our customers’ needs and strive to exceed expectations. I like to get people excited about the things I’m excited about. For me that’s Howden – an employee-owned, people-first business with our customers at the heart.
