Senior Business Operations Analyst – Insurance (Data & Change)

London (City) | 2-3 days per week in the office

£80-90k base

We’re hiring a Senior Business Operations Analyst for a global insurance organisation undergoing a data-led transformation across underwriting, claims, and core operations.

This is a business-facing role, sitting between the insurance teams and technology. You’ll focus on understanding how the business works, translating requirements into a developing data management strategy, and helping drive operational change as new platforms and data capabilities are embedded.

This is not a developer or IT role. It’s for someone who understands insurance operations and can ask the right questions, influence stakeholders, and turn insight into action.

What you’ll be doing

  • Working closely with Underwriting, Claims, Operations, and IT
  • Leading business analysis and requirement gathering for data-related initiatives
  • Translating insurance business needs into practical data and change priorities
  • Supporting the rollout and adoption of new data platforms and processes
  • Identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, data quality, and decision-making
  • Influencing and challenging stakeholders to drive better outcomes

What we’re looking for

  • Experience in insurance or reinsurance (commercial, specialty, or FS)
  • Background as a Business Analyst, Operations Analyst, or Change Analyst
  • Strong understanding of insurance processes and operating models
  • Data-literate (comfortable working with reporting, MI, data issues)
  • Confident engaging senior stakeholders and driving change
  • Consulting or transformation experience is a strong plus

Why apply

  • High-visibility role within a core insurance business
  • Genuine opportunity to shape how data is used across the organisation
  • Clear scope, ownership, and progression
  • Stable environment with meaningful change agenda

London-based candidates only.
