Data Business Analyst – Claims Transformation | 6-month contract | 1 day per fortnight in office | York or London | I'm looking for 2 experienced Data Business Analyst to join a large-scale, multi-million-pound Claims Transformation programme. This is not a traditional Business Change or Business Process BA role. The programme already has people covering that area. Instead, you'll sit across the transformation from a data perspective, working between the business, technology and data teams. The Role Working directly with the Product Manager, you'll help drive a number of cross-cutting data initiatives across Claims. You'll be involved in areas including: Understanding data sources, flows and dependencies Developing data dictionaries and business glossaries KPI, OKR and performance reporting Fraud reporting and analytics Building out a data product catalogue Understanding data fields and where they originate Supporting Dynamics 365 and data warehouse initiatives Assessing the impact of new data and systems on existing reporting Working alongside Solution Architects, Data and Analytics teams A key part of the role will be bringing together business and technical stakeholders, understanding what they need from the data and turning that into clear requirements and deliverables. About You We're looking for a Data-focused Business Analyst with: Strong experience working with data Understanding of data warehousing Experience with reporting / MI and Power BI Strong requirements gathering and documentation skills Experience running workshops / user story mapping Excellent stakeholder management skills The ability to work comfortably across both business and technology teams You don't need to be a technical data specialist or Power BI developer. We're more interested in someone who understands how data moves through an organisation, where it comes from, how it's used and what impact changes can have. Experience with systems such as Dynamics 365, SAP, Oracle or other enterprise applications would be useful, but the specific technology background isn't essential. The Environment You'll work across a complex, multi-country transformation involving Claims, Data & Analytics, MI, Power BI, Data Science, Engineering, Technology and Architecture teams. It's a role with plenty of stakeholder exposure and the opportunity to have a genuine impact on how data is understood, structured and used across the Claims function.

About the role Our client builds drugs for patient populations that traditional generic development doesn't reach, not more of the same generic drugs. To do it, their pharma, ML and data scientists rely on a mix of LLM-based applications and standard full stack software. They build this software in-house. Engineers work directly alongside the scientists using it, turning their sharpest and most ambiguous questions into shipped features, not into a support ticket for someone else's platform. What you'll do Own applications end to end. Get up to speed across their mix of LLM-based and standard full stack applications, then take ownership of a growing share of them. As you take on more, you'll be designing and building features end to end rather than working one corner of a single product. Turn scientists' questions into shipped software. You'll work day to day with pharma, ML and data scientists, and with a few other engineers on the team. Take a rough idea of what a scientist needs, spec it out into concrete requirements yourself, then build it. There's no separate product function doing that translation for you. Move fast with unclear inputs. This is a high-velocity, low-structure job: expect a constant stream of unstructured feedback and the need to turn it into shipped, working software, not a fully-scoped ticket. Build the agents, not just use them. Build and evaluate agentic and multi-agent systems as a core part of the job. This isn't a side project or an experiment, it's part of the core application set scientists rely on day to day. Grow by taking on more. Our client is a young company without a fixed playbook: the more you build, the more you can own. Progression here is driven by impact rather than tenure. One of the team's current engineers joined as an intern and now owns engineering end to end. Who we're looking for A full stack engineer who has taken a product from an idea to production, and who has built and shipped a real AI agent, not just experimented with one. Core experience 3 to 5 years as a full stack engineer, strong in Python and TypeScript Has taken at least one application from zero to one (full front end and back end) through to completion Has built a real agentic AI application and can talk about how its impact was measured, not just that it was built Comfortable deploying on Google Cloud Preferred background Pharma or biotech experience is the strongest fit A general research background, in any field, is a solid second Open to strong candidates from other backgrounds too Startup experience is strongly preferred over big tech Also required High autonomy: comfortable owning a problem end to end with minimal hand-holding Comfortable with ambiguity and fast-changing priorities Confident coordinating directly with non-engineering stakeholders (scientists), not just other engineers

Forward Deployed Scientist - Pharma Location: Hybrid, regular on-site in Oxford, UK Level: Senior / Principal The role We build AI systems that accelerate complex generics and 505(b)(2) formulation work, plus a causal engine that predicts what happens when you change a formulation, targeting PK and bioequivalence. It's a concierge model: clients never touch the platform, our scientists do. You own the client relationship, run real discovery, judge whether our output is actually useful, and turn field constraints into requirements engineers can build. What you'll do Own the client relationship. Find out what's been tried, what failed, what's frozen, what the process can really do, and what decision they need to make. Half the job is discovery, before any analysis starts. Gatekeep quality. Every deliverable goes through you first. Is it implementable at scale? Does it answer the real question? You can kill work before it ships. Push past the obvious. If the output reads like a literature review, send it back. Force the causal engine and the client's own data to actually earn their keep. Turn constraints into product requirements. "This process can't hit half a percent error" isn't small talk, it's a spec. Write it up so engineering can build against it. Bridge both sides. Technical enough to challenge the engineering team, credible enough that a client's development lead treats you as a peer. Compound every engagement. Log what was asked, what we found, what the data couldn't answer, and what the client valued. That becomes the evidence base. Who you are An industrial formulation / CMC scientist who has shipped real dosage forms and sat through a failed study. Core experience PhD in pharmaceutics, pharma sciences, chemical engineering (or a Master's with more industry time) 5+ years in generics, complex generics, or 505(b)(2) Hands-on with solid oral dosage forms: modified/extended release, coating, dissolution methods, scale-up You've had a BE study fail, diagnosed why, and fixed it. Worth more than any credential You know what a plant can and can't reliably do: batch variability, yield loss, where lab-scale ideas break Fluent in FDA guidance, IID limits, ICH stability, PK endpoints, BE stats You read the data yourself and you'll get fluent in our stack. No need to code AI fluency You already use AI tools daily, literature, data, protocols, reasoning, and have a real opinion on where they help and where they don't You've been burned by a confident wrong answer in your own field, and you can tell the story. That earned scepticism matters more than enthusiasm You interrogate AI output instead of accepting it When a tool falls short, your instinct is to fix it, not just complain Also required You find the constraint everyone else assumed away Generalist range: mechanism, stats, process, regulatory, without handing off to a specialist each time You can tell a development lead their approach is broken and they'll thank you for it Intellectual honesty: "this data can't answer that, here's the experiment that would," beats a confident answer that fits the slide Comfortable with ambiguity, five people, no playbook, real deadlines
