Senior Specialist Recruiter at FDM Group
FDM is a global business and technology consultancy seeking a Business Analyst to work for our client within the Insurance sector. This is initially a 12-month contract with the potential to extend and will be a hybrid role based in Macclesfield.
Our client is seeking an experienced Business Process Analyst who will work on the initiative that involves analysing the potential transition from a mixed manual/basic portal process for obtaining GP Reports (GPRs) to a fully outsourced managed service (iGPR Magic). The change involves outsourcing the end-to-end GPR lifecycle (requesting, chasing, redaction, payments) and exploring future API integration for structured data, impacting current operational and finance workflows.
You will have a strong track record in benefits validation analysis (operational savings, revenue uplift), As-Is/To-Be process mapping, requirements definition (portal/future API) and vendor liaising. You will also have extensive experience in Vendor pilot evaluations, facilitating workshops and engaging effectively with stakeholders at all levels.
Responsibilities
* Review and analyse current business processes to identify inefficiencies and areas for automation.
* Conduct meetings with stakeholders to gather detailed requirements
* Write and test automation scripts to ensure they function correctly
* Deploy automated processes and monitor their performance
* Troubleshoot and resolve any issues that arise during and after deployment
* Work closely with IT, operations, and other departments to ensure seamless integration of automated processes
* Communicate progress and updates to stakeholders regularly
* Provide training sessions and support to end-users on new automated processes
* Create user manuals and documentation
* Stay updated with the latest automation technologies and best practices
* Continuously seek opportunities to enhance and optimise existing automated processes
* Ensure that all automated processes comply with industry regulations and company standards
* Conduct regular quality assurance checks to maintain the integrity of automated workflows
* Generate reports on the performance and impact of automated processes
* Present findings and recommendations to management
About You
Requirements
* Must have understanding of protection/life underwriting, including the use of medical evidence like GPRs
* Eliciting, analysing, and documenting requirements, particularly for process outsourcing, vendor system integration, data feeds (structured/unstructured), and AI/automation capabilities
* Mapping current manual underwriting/GPR processes and designing efficient future state processes involving external vendors or AI assistance
* Experience interacting with third-party vendors, supporting evaluation/pilot activities, and assessing capabilities against requirements
* Effectively collaborating with Underwriting, Operations, IT, Finance, Compliance, and vendor teams
* Understanding of data privacy considerations (GDPR) and processes like DPIAs, especially when dealing with sensitive medical data and AI
* Identifying, quantifying (where possible), and validating project benefits (financial and non-financial) and contributing analysis to support business case development
About Us
