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

This role focuses on the visual and presentation‑led delivery of high‑value tenders, pitches and proposals, supporting major new business opportunities across large, complex clients.

Working closely with Bid Leads, senior New Business stakeholders and bid writers, you will be responsible for turning written and technical input into clear, compelling and polished visual materials, particularly PowerPoint decks used in pitches and finalist presentations.

This is a design‑led role, where quality, structure and meticulous attention to detail matter as much as pace. It supports strategic, high‑value opportunities rather than high‑volume bidding.

What you’ll do

PowerPoint, Design & Visual Storytelling

  • Design and build high‑quality PowerPoint decks for pitches, finalist meetings and senior client presentations.

  • Translate complex insurance and technical content into clear, persuasive visual narratives.

  • Develop diagrams, infographics and process visuals to explain underwriting, claims and service models.

  • Ensure all materials are visually consistent, on brand and client‑ready.

  • Improve and adapt templates for bespoke, high‑value opportunities.

  • Maintain rigorous standards of formatting, layout, alignment and version control.

Written Content Support

  • Edit and refine written content for clarity, flow and consistency when translating it into presentations.

  • Work closely with bid writers to ensure narrative intent is preserved visually.

  • Support document production in PowerPoint and Word where required (e.g. executive summaries or supporting pitch documents).

  • Help incorporate feedback from tender debriefs to continuously improve quality and impact.

Who we’re looking for

  • Experience producing client‑facing pitch decks or proposal materials in a professional services environment.

  • Advanced PowerPoint skills with a strong eye for structure, layout and presentation quality.

  • Exceptional attention to detail, particularly formatting, accuracy and consistency.

  • Comfortable working under pressure on high‑stakes opportunities.

  • Confident working with senior stakeholders, including partners and directors.

  • Organised, calm and proactive.

Backgrounds that work well include:

  • Pitch / proposals executive (design‑led)

  • Visual bid support specialist

  • Marketing or New Business roles within professional services (law, consulting, insurance)

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*.

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 in helping to get you set up with any reasonable adjustments you may require.

*Not all positions can accommodate changes to working hours or locations. Reach out to your Recruitment Partner if you want to know more.
