Hiring: Systems Analyst / Technical Business Analyst
York / Colchester (UK) & Lisbon (Portugal)
Permanent & Fixed-Term Contract Opportunities
Hybrid Working
We’re hiring Systems Analysts / Technical Business Analysts to join one of the most exciting technology transformation environments at Hiscox.
This is not a traditional BA role.
We’re looking for technically-minded analysts who enjoy solving complex business and systems challenges, shaping integration solutions, and working closely with engineers, architects, and stakeholders to deliver real business impact.
You’ll sit within cross-functional Agile teams helping design and deliver scalable technical solutions across enterprise applications, APIs, automation, and integrations.
What you’ll be doing:
• Translating business requirements into detailed technical specifications and user stories
• Working across end-to-end solution delivery — from discovery through to deployment
• Supporting API and systems integration initiatives (REST/SOAP)
• Running workshops with technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Collaborating closely with developers, architects, testers, and third-party vendors
• Supporting solution validation, defect analysis, and continuous improvement initiatives
• Helping shape scalable, reusable technical solutions across multiple applications and technologies
We’d love to hear from people with experience in:
✔ Systems Analysis
✔ Technical Business Analysis
✔ Enterprise applications & integrations
✔ API specifications (REST / SOAP)
✔ Functional & technical documentation
✔ Data flows and system workflows
✔ Workshop facilitation and stakeholder engagement
✔ Agile delivery environments
⭐ Nice to have:
• SQL knowledge
• Azure/cloud exposure
• Insurance or regulated industry experience
This role would suit someone who enjoys sitting between business and technology — someone comfortable discussing integrations, workflows, APIs, and technical solutions while still being highly stakeholder-focused.
Why Hiscox?
At Hiscox, technology is central to our strategy. You’ll join collaborative, empowered teams delivering meaningful technical change within a modern engineering environment. We invest heavily in innovation, flexible working, and career progression.
