Solution Analyst (Techcom Insurance)

The Solution Analyst is responsible for translating customer and channel insights, into clear solution recommendations, business requirements, and evidence for commercial decisions. Embedded in one commercial squad, independently manage defined analyses and work packages under the Solution Owner’s direction.

Investigate customer and channel needs.

Analyse customer records, interviews, bank or broker feedback, win/loss information, and service experience. Identify unmet needs, buying considerations, recurring problems, and evidence gaps. Document findings and implications for the Solution Owner, distinguishing verified facts from assumptions.

Support solution and proposition design.

Develop options for customer propositions, standalone products, bundles, and service journeys with commercial and technical colleagues. Map customer needs, eligibility, information requirements, handoffs, and service expectations. Compare options and recommend practical improvements, referring coverage and pricing questions to specialists.

Define business requirements and value cases.

Translate agreed needs into clear requirements, process maps, business rules, and testable acceptance criteria. Estimate expected value and effort with relevant contributors, record assumptions and dependencies, and maintain traceability. Prepare requirements for the Solution Owner’s approval and submission to Corporate Business Transformation.

Analyse economics and commercial performance.

Use Finance-agreed definitions to analyse premium, claims, acquisition, reinsurance, and servicing costs alongside pipeline conversion, retention, and product or bundle performance. Check data quality, explain variances, support forecast assumptions, and recommend actions. Supply accurate squad inputs to the integrated performance-management cycle.

Coordinate business testing and pilots.

Prepare user acceptance testing scenarios against agreed criteria, including normal journeys and exceptions. Organise squad participation, execute assigned tests, document results, and track defects and retests with Transformation and functional teams. Assemble evidence and unresolved issues for the Solution Owner’s business acceptance decision.

Support sales and operational readiness.

Prepare proposition summaries, sales guidance, FAQs, customer information requirements, and training materials using approved content. Track readiness actions and handoff arrangements with sales and service teams. Identify gaps and provide evidence for the Solution Owner’s sales-readiness decision.

Evaluate performance after launch.

Collect user and customer feedback, examine adoption and service results, and compare actual outcomes with the value case. Investigate recurring problems and propose changes. Follow through on assigned analytical actions and verify results with commercial, Finance, and Transformation counterparts.

Manage analytical work and stakeholder coordination.

Plan assigned work, agree milestones, maintain accurate documentation and action records, and communicate progress clearly. Challenge inconsistent inputs, surface risks early, and resolve questions with the relevant owners. Present concise recommendations, including evidence, trade-offs, and decisions required.
