Meet Our Leaders
Admiral - an MBA success story
Our founders, Henry Engelhardt and David Stevens, met at INSEAD in 1988 and were at the helm of Admiral until 2020, building a company based on innovation and long-term growth.
Their aim was to provide an enriching, challenging, and fulfilling work environment, while making a positive impact on the world and our customers.
We're now a highly successful and profitable FTSE 100 company with a market cap of over £8bn and operations in the UK, France, Italy, Spain and the USA.
We've also been voted a Great Place to Work in every single one of our operations and, with Milena Mondini as Group CEO, we're one of just two companies in the FTSE 100 with both a female CEO and a female chair - something we’re very proud of.
The importance of MBAs to Admiral's success
Many of our most senior managers came to Admiral following their MBA. Our Spanish CEO Sarah Harris joined on the Future Leaders Programme. Alberto Schiavon, our US CEO and Cosmin Sarbu, Head of Travel in the UK, joined on the SPARK Leadership Programme.
Whatever your experience, we’re looking for people who can take nothing and make something; who make teams better; who can inspire and motivate those around them; who can grow into being great leaders.
Why not you?
MBA Opportunities
Future Leaders Programme
This role works closely with our Group CEO, Milena Mondini, and focuses on three areas – strategy, new ventures, and product – both in the UK operations and internationally. It’s a high impact role designed to kickstart your career and prepare you for a senior management position.
We are currently accepting applications for this programme.
SPARK Leadership Programme
This role is aimed at strategically minded MBAs who possess both analytical and managerial qualities.
The goal of the SPARK programme is to prepare you for future senior leadership roles, either within the Pricing and Analytics functions, or in the wider business.
We are currently accepting applications for this programme.
Admiral is a place where we trust each other, and people are trusted to get the job done. That was an important part of my decision-making process in joining Admiral.
Simon Flynn CEO, Small Business
People are at the heart of what we do - at Admiral our culture is based around four pillars: communication, reward, fun and equality.
David Stevens Co-founder & CEO emeritus
I remember thinking, I just have to be a part of this company!
Marisja Kocznur Head of International Business Development & Investor Relations
Ask yourself: what are YOU doing to make the most of your talent?
Henry Engelhardt Founder & CEO emeritus
When we originally set up Admiral, one of our aims was to create a company that offered its staff a good work-life balance. Twenty-five years later and this wish still remains as strong as ever.
David Stevens Co-founder & CEO emeritus
I never would have thought going into insurance could be so interesting, but my career to date with Admiral has given me great exposure to a variety of strategic projects and it's great having the autonomy to make decisions and drive your own career path.
Sheli Miller International Pricing Manager
The fact that Admiral was founded by two MBA graduates and several MBA recruits have progressed to business division CEOs convinced me that it was the company for me.
David Campelo International Pricing Manager
Equality is one of the 4 pillars of the Admiral culture, which has underpinned all our success over the past 25 years. We are proud of our diverse culture across the Group.
David Stevens Co-founder & CEO emeritus
The power of the team is invariably greater than the power of any single individual.
Henry Engelhardt Founder & CEO emeritus
I was immediately passionate about the people that work here, the way we work and the strong commercial sprit that the company has.
Alberto Schiavon CEO Elephant Auto Insurance
