Lead Business Analyst/Project Lead

Lead Business Analyst / Project Lead

EU Co-Insurance Programme

We are looking for a strong senior BA who can take ownership of a short, high impact project.

This is not just analysis.
You will scope the work. Build the plan. Then deliver it end to end.

The role

You will come in as the lead.
First job is to get your arms around the problem.

Then you will:

• Scope the project properly


• Build a clear and deliverable project plan


• Take ownership of delivery

From there, you will lead the analysis work yourself, supported by a small team.

What you will be doing

• Define scope, approach, and delivery plan from day one


• Lead end to end process mapping across a complex insurance operation


• Document current and target state processes


• Run detailed gap analysis and identify failure points


• Re-baseline requirements and prioritise improvements


• Provide clear, evidence-based recommendations


• Work across multiple teams including underwriting, finance, claims and technology


• Use AI tools where appropriate to accelerate mapping and documentation

The initial focus is one European market.
This will then expand across a wider EU footprint.

What we are looking for

• Strong Business Analyst with experience leading small programme or a Project Manager who is still hands on with analysis


• Proven track record scoping projects and building delivery plans


• Confident owning delivery rather than just supporting it


• Strong process mapping and documentation skills


• Experience running gap analysis and shaping improvement recommendations


• Insurance experience is essential


• Good understanding of co-insurance or complex multi-party models


• Comfortable working across multiple stakeholders and functions


• Experience using AI to support analysis is a bonus

Key details

• Hybrid working. London based. 2 days per week on site


• Contract engagement. Inside IR35
