Job description

We are working with a well-known FTSE 250 financial services business who are looking to hire an experienced Developer/Analyst professional. The business holds assets of just over £4bn by providing competitive and innovative products, services, financial advice and guidance to help their customers achieve security, certainty and provide them with peace of mind for the future.

The right individual will serve as a liaison between the strategic systems development team and the business-as-usual (BAU) teams to ensure effective business operations during transitional phases. Therefore it is essential that the candidate possesses knowledge in both DB Pensions concepts and best practices in system development/coding. The business has a focus on improving and enhancing data insights and this role will be integral to that.

The role will be varied but the main accountabilities for this position will be:

• Responsible for facilitating ongoing improvement of BAU activities in alignment with the long-term strategic vision outlined by the DB Technical Authority.
• Improve DB data and aid the migration from current BAU systems to the strategic solution.
• Identify necessary developments for business continuity during the transition to new systems and processes.
• Deliver scalable, robust solutions and mitigating process risks.
• Ensure all developments support effective business operations and changes required by various business activities relying on DB data.

The ideal person will have strong Python skills (possibly Julia) and will be able to understand and contextualise the data derived from the DB system as well as have a good understanding of operation processes with the Defined Beneift pensions environment.

The role is hybrid and needs a commitment of on average 2-3 days per week in the London office. Those looking for 100% remote cannot be considered due to the important aspect of collaboration. There is a competitive salary on offer, plus 26 days annual leave and a generous performance-related bonus as well as good healthcare and income protection.
