IT Business Analyst - Insurance, Business Change, Process Modelling, Data Analysis
Our client, a leading speciality insurer, is seeking an IT Business Analyst to join their growing Business Change and Technology function. This is a highly varied role offering exposure to both strategic project work and business-as-usual initiatives, making it an excellent opportunity for a Business Analyst looking to broaden their experience across systems, data, processes and operational change.
Working closely with internal Development and QA teams, you will play a key role in delivering IT system enhancements, implementations and application improvements, while also driving process optimisation and supporting data quality initiatives across the business.
Joining a collaborative and highly visible team, you will quickly become a trusted advisor to stakeholders and a go-to resource for understanding business processes and identifying the most effective ways of delivering change.
This opportunity would suit a Business Analyst from a smaller or medium-sized organisation where they have gained broad exposure across multiple disciplines, or someone from a larger enterprise environment looking to move into a more varied role with greater responsibility and visibility.
This is a permanent role paying up to £75,000 per annum plus bonus and benefits and requires 2 days per week in the London office, with additional office attendance likely during the initial onboarding period.
