Insurance Business Systems Administrator

Rarely do opportunities like this present themselves - the chance for someone from an insurance background to develop a career within Business Change & IT.

Our client, a fortune 500 company with over 60 offices in 20+ countries, uses its ingenuity to insure risks that others can’t. Finding smart solutions to complex problems, the company’s goal is to ensure that people can live their lives and seize opportunities. This highly prestigious insurer is experiencing phenomenal growth, and winning many insurance awards and plaudits as a result.

Based in Manchester, this is a key role, which will support the continued growth of the company, in line with its plans to double in size over the next 5 years.

We must stress that this is NOT a technical IT role. You will be using an ‘off the shelf’ system that have been tailored to our client’s requirements, and you will have full support from the IT team.

We are looking for someone who has previous insurance experience, and who understands the customer journey throughout a policy lifecycle. It is important that you enjoy dealing with business systems / software and that you have a good analytical mind and strong problem-solving skills. Just as importantly, you will have strong numeracy, organisational and communication skills, and the ability to work to deadlines. We will consider insurance candidates from a range of backgrounds (Brokers, Underwriters, Claims etc).

You will play an integral role in the Operations & Change team, which supports strategic projects within the change roadmap, initiating, implementing change and process simplification and improvements.

Working closely with the Divisional Head, you will assist with reviewing and analysing system specifications, collaborating with various stakeholders to effective strategies and test plans. You will also attend and contribute to product design workshops, report bugs and errors to development teams, and act as the First Line of operational support to solve issues. In addition, you will conduct post-release/ post-implementation testing, support ongoing system enhancements, and work with your peers and IT, from initiation through to testing and implementation.

You will be joining a rapidly-growing team, which offers lots of exciting career development opportunities!

Not only is this an superb time to join the company, this organisation is extremely well-renowned for its culture; many of its staff citing, “this is the best employer I have ever worked for.”

This is a hybrid-working position, which will allow you to work 2 days from home, should you so wish.

You will be rewarded with a generous basic salary, a lucrative annual bonus, and an impressive suite of corporate benefits.
