Business Analyst

Job Description:
Our client is seeking a Senior Business Analyst/Project Manager to join their operations team. This person needs to have technical knowledge, but does not need to be an expert as their focus is on leading and building out products. This ideal candidate must have strong communication skills, to clearly communicate with presidents of companies, not just other BAs, to articulate needs, present project plans and drive alignment.

This is a senior-level hybrid role that combines strategic project leadership with hands-on business analysis, specifically within the property and casualty insurance space.

Responsibilities:

• Lead the end-to-end delivery of digital product builds, ensuring alignment with business goals, timelines and compliance standards.

• Gather, document and validate complex business and technical requirements across underwriting, operations and IT.

• Manage project plans, risks and communications, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the project lifecycle.

• Facilitate collaboration among business leaders, developers, QA, and external vendors or carriers.

• Conduct stakeholder interviews, lead workshops, and drive consensus on priorities and scope.

• Translate business needs into actionable user stories, process flows and technical documentation.

• Oversee UAT planning, execution and defect resolution.

Requirements:

• 7+ years of experience in a combined PM/BA role with a strong background in property and casualty insurance (carrier, MGA or broker)

• Proven success leading complex digital initiatives, especially in underwriting, policy administration or self-service platforms

• Strong communication and negotiation skills, including experience engaging with executive stakeholders and external partners

• Technical fluency: understands digital platforms, authentication flows, APIs and system integrations

• Highly organized, detail-oriented and comfortable managing ambiguity in fast-paced environments

• Proficient in tools such as JIRA, Confluence, Visio, and Microsoft Project and Excel
