Job Description Summary

**Job Description**:
Lead Business Design Analyst

Permanent, Full-Time

Our people are our greatest asset, and we want Aegon to be a place where they can bring their authentic self to work and do all they can to deliver on our strategic promises to our customers.

We help people live their best lives. We help them with the big stuff, for the moments that matter: Pensions, Insurance, Savings, Investments.

On our mission to build the UKs leading digital platform as a Lead Business Design Analyst you will lead the creation, elicitation, and documentation of business requirements to support the successful initiation, design and delivery of projects and programs. You will lead business design analysis on projects, supporting the delivery of successful project level outcomes. You will have the responsibility of leading a team of analysts, providing support and guidance.

You will use your market and platform knowledge to help stakeholders shape their thoughts and needs. Help them balance viability, feasibility, and desirability to ensure we deliver great customer outcomes.

The focus of this role is analysis and design. It requires established technical expertise and deep domain knowledge and the ability to lead others in carrying out their analysis. You will act with a considerable degree of autonomy but be accountable for ensuring clear business outcomes across your own work, and your teams. Interactions will be with both internal and external stakeholders and will require you to present overly complex information and sophisticated business solutions to colleagues at senior level.

We’d love to hear from you if you have:

- Experience leading a team of business analysts.
- Deep domain knowledge in wealth management, pensions, investments, and fund management.
- Ability to design, lead and facilitate workshops with a range of stakeholders to develop requirements and business solutions from often vague starting positions.
- Experienced in building business process modelling and journey mapping capability.
- Ability to support business owners in developing their thinking, propositionally, commercially and in a regulatory compliant as a means to enabling the right business design, translated into requirements and user stories.

It’d also be great - but not essential - if you’ve got:

- Experienced and strong knowledge of delivering business change.
- Experience of complex process architectures involving the integration of multiple systems (including third parties).
- Commercial awareness of one or more of the following products Collective Investments, Investment Trusts, Equities, Bonds and Pensions
- Knowledge of Investment Platforms.

What’s in it for you?
- A competitive salary from £49,400 - £74,100, depending on the experience you can bring
- A non-contributory pension between 8%-12%
- A discretionary bonus, depending on personal and company performance
- 34 days leave per year (including bank holidays, pro-rated for part-time)

We know our staff have busy lives and commitments outside work, so we work flexibly where possible and have a hybrid approach to office working (typically 2 days in the office per week, 3 from home).

We also offer private medical cover, life assurance, critical illness cover, enhanced parental leave and a variety of lifestyle benefits to help our staff live their best lives, including retail discount vouchers, cycle2work scheme, subsidised restaurant and online GP appointments.

We ask everyone to be brave, raise their game, deliver first time, help others, and act in everyone’s best interests. If you recognise yourself in this, we’d love to hear from you.

Closing date: 13th of August

The legal bits

We’ll need you to confirm you have the right to work in the UK. If we offer you a job and you accept, there are some checks we need to complete before you can start with us. This will include a credit and criminal record check, as well as providing satisfactory references.
