Senior Business Analyst (Guidewire)

Our client is currently in an exciting phase, implementing Guidewire in Sweden and expanding into Finland. A brand-new Claims team is being established, and this Business Analyst will be one of the first key members to join the team.

In this role, you will work closely with both business stakeholders and development teams to ensure that requirements, processes, and functionalities within the claims area meet business needs. You will play a central role in shaping ways of working, defining processes, and establishing quality standards within a growing Guidewire landscape.

As the teams do not have dedicated QA resources, you are expected to have a strong quality mindset and solid experience in testing and validation as part of your BA responsibilities.

Responsibilities:

– Gather, analyze, and document business requirements and process flows within the claims domain

– Translate requirements into clear specifications and user stories for development teams

– Collaborate with Product Owners, architects, and developers to ensure mutual understanding of business needs

– Support the team in test planning and execution activities

– Validate system deliverables against requirements and business processes

– Contribute to establishing and continuously improving processes, tools, and working methods

Requirements:

– Guidewire certification (e.g., ClaimCenter, PolicyCenter, BillingCenter, or Digital)

– Several years of experience as a Business Analyst within insurance

– Strong QA background – ideally from roles where testing was integrated into BA work

– Experience working in agile environments (Scrum/Kanban)

– Solid understanding of insurance processes, particularly in claims

– Excellent communication skills in English

Nice to Have:

– Experience from Guidewire implementations or upgrades

– Expertise within the claims domain (Guidewire ClaimCenter)

– Experience with integration projects between Guidewire and external systems

– Understanding of test automation or QA strategy development

– Familiarity with tools such as JIRA, Confluence, and Postman

– Previous consulting experience or work in distributed teams

– Nordic experience (Swedish/Finnish) is highly valuable, as insurance processes differ between countries

Other requirements:

– Analytical and structured

– Quality-focused with strong attention to detail

– Collaborative and communicative

– Self-driven with a strong sense of initiative

– Ability to switch between technical and business perspectives
