Jo Browning is Senior Managing Director for People and part of the Executive Committee, having enjoyed a career spanning more than 20 years with Markel.

Jo oversees International HR, and leads the global HR business partnering and diversity and inclusion teams. She also leads the Brand, Communications and Marketing team.

Throughout that time, Jo has been a spearhead for change within the organisation, leading the charge on several significant projects that have transformed how the business communicates, recruits and develops talent, and creates a great experience for employees.

Jo is a passionate advocate for diversity and inclusion, not only within Markel, but the wider insurance industry. This has included launching an employee-led framework called Style in Action, which is committed to bringing the 'Markel Style' to life through action across four pillars – Community, Inclusion, Wellbeing and Recognition – where everyone is encouraged to play a part in Markel’s culture and in local communities.
