The Role

This role sits within the UK Retail technology team, and it is aligned to the Core platform application IDIT/Merlin, with a future transition to a new document management system planned. In this role, you will be working closely with product owners, change, and engineering teams as part of a delivery squad or project.

As a member of the Document Configuration team, the Associate Application Consultant is responsible for delivering business document configuration changes in the Merlin (Sapiens IDIT) policy administration system under robust governance and quality controls. By taking on configuration changes previously handled by external Sapiens Implementation Engineers (IEs), this role helps to embed an internal document configuration capability in the business, reducing reliance on vendor teams and improving agility.

The focus is on safely and efficiently implementing changes to policy schedules, customer letters, and other system-generated documents, ensuring each change is fully tested and auditable.

Initially, the Associate Application Consultant will concentrate on Merlin document updates while also supporting the planned migration to a new centralised document management system, ensuring knowledge transfer and minimal disruption under the guidance of the Senior Application Consultant. This is an individual contributor role (no line management), dedicated to quality delivery of configuration changes within established standards and report into the Senior Application Consultant.
