Sequel Impact is one of our market-leading products which offers an elegant Exposure Management solution to underwriters and brokers , who operate largely within the Lloyd's and London Insurance Market .

The core focus is to play a senior level business analyst role, supporting a Lead Business Analyst in delivering software projects . You'll work within a specialist team - Sequel and Verisk employees - across London, Malaga and potentially, the USA. Whilst this is a supporting BA role to the Lead Analyst, we're looking for someone who will take initiative and be comfortable engaging with senior management, customers and counterparts, communicating well to develop a strong partnership of process across the London - Malaga teams.

We'd be particularly keen to attract candidates with prior experience in (or a keen desire to work with) Sequel Impact, or who have acuired knowledge of competitor software products in the exposure management, and underwriting markets.

You may be a strong team lead, or a more specialist BA - but you will need to have acquired understanding of the challenges of software delivery alongside LM specialisation.

About the team

It's a diverse group of great individuals, with the commonality of purpose: professional, client-focused, innovation-led, and supportive of each other. We are serious about the quality of our work, and equally serious about creating a culture of inclusiveness and enjoyment in the workplace.

We are accordingly keen to attract like-minded candidates, who understand the pressures and opportunities that come with crafting B2B software.
