Do You Have Policy / Rating / Billing / Claims Experience?

Working alongside our trusted partners you can help insurers future-proof their business by implementing software that creates a seamless experience for the insurance agent and their customers. The administration and management of insurance policies have historically been very complex and inflexible. Introducing effective processes will save our clients time, money and improve the customer experience.

Our Insurance Technical Analysts work with our client’s internal teams, as well as our software partners, to address their technical and business needs, while in the process becoming trusted advisors.  You will be involved in the analysis and creation of user requirements to design, build and configure technical solutions within agile methodologies. As a Technical Analyst with Insurance experience, you’ll be naturally curious and get to the bottom of issues to support your clients. You will have strong communication skills, with both written and verbal being important to deliver the requirements of the role.

Due to Covid -19 our Technical Analysts have moved to a remote working model however, we do expect that at some point travel will be reintroduced and you will be expected to spend part of your time on site with the client, working alongside the business and technical teams.
