An exciting opportunity has arisen for the role of Graduate Rating Programmer. We are looking for someone to join the Rating team within the Pricing and Analytics area of our multi-award winning business at its global headquarters in the centre of Cardiff.
We have consistently been recognised as one of the best companies to work for in the UK and we are now looking for talented individuals as we expand into exciting new products and services. While based in Cardiff, the Rating Team practices a hybrid working philosophy where individuals are expected to work from the office a few days a week and from home the rest.
Who are the Rating Team?
The Rating Team are responsible for maintaining the rating engine for our Motor and Household products including Car, Van, Home and Landlord Insurance. We work closely with our Pricing and Analytics areas to understand their requirements and ensure that we carry out changes in a timely fashion. Our role is crucial in ensuring the customer journey is not affected.
What would your role entail?
As a Graduate Rating Programmer you would be responsible for making changes to our rating structure using the software package Ratabase. This process is made up of multiple stages, from liaising with the analyst and investigating potential impacts on the existing rating structure, to the development and coding of the change within Ratabase, to testing, and finally implementation into the live environment.
As your system knowledge grows, the expectation will be for you to take on more responsibility and become more independent when carrying out investigation, building and testing of increasingly complex changes.
