Description
Eurobase is an international software and service provider to financial institutions in over 25 countries. We provide enterprise wide solutions for (re)insurance companies, banks and other financial institutions as well as IT recruitment services.
Our aim is to be recognised as thought leaders in the sectors we operate, and to deliver innovative solutions that provide real business value to our customers.
We pride ourselves on our personal approach, ensuring we deliver the support and flexibility our customers need and the service they expect.
Our customers have a long and lasting relationship with Eurobase and all will verify our approach to doing business and commitment to product investment - delivering ongoing value above and beyond our initial engagements.
Position:
We are seeking a Senior Systems Business Analyst to take end-to-end ownership of analysis and change delivery for a highly bespoke, business-critical legacy system supporting a long-standing Reinsurance client within the London Market.
This is a senior, hands-on role suited to an experienced professional who is comfortable operating in legacy environments and can bridge business needs with system capability—shaping requirements, supporting prioritisation, and ensuring changes are specified, tested, and delivered with minimal disruption.
The role requires strong, hands-on capability across Ingres (including Ingres-specific SQL) and Unix/AIX, with confidence working with batch processing, month-end readiness and London Market message flows, and supporting analysis of C with embedded SQL and Ingres 4GL where required.
A key part of the role is to proactively review current business and operational processes, identify improvement opportunities, and iteratively maintain clear, up-to-date documentation as the system and client needs evolve.
The successful candidate will operate in an embedded capacity as a primary point of contact for the client, taking accountability for outcomes across incidents, enhancements, and ongoing system stability.
