The Role

The Product Development team plays a pivotal role in delivering the overall digital experience for customers, consumers and colleagues underpinning the Rightmove business. We recognise that to deliver the best products and features for our consumers, customers and colleagues we need to work effectively as a healthy, high performing team. We work collaboratively across a mix of product and centralised teams, together working towards Rightmove’s strategy.

The Application Analyst role sits within one of our Internal Product Teams providing digital solutions to Rightmove’s internal teams. The role is an important part of one of our SCRUM product teams working with the Product Owner, Software and QA Engineers within the team to analyse business problems, design and deliver technical solutions. The Application Analyst will deliver technical solutions through configuration of business applications (either third party or developed by Rightmove) and low-code solutions to meet Rightmove’s users’ and business needs.

The Application Analyst role reports to the Business Systems Manager and works closely with other application and platform engineers, Product Owners, Architects and Operations team members.

A typical week as an Application Analyst might involve

• Spending time with Rightmove’s teams to identify and understand where your technology delivery capabilities can help them solve challenges and leverage opportunities
• Attending meetings with the Product Owner, Software Engineers and Quality Assurance Engineers in your product team to discuss a business challenge and how you will work together to solve it.
• Regularly sharing your progress with the rest of your product team and the eventual end users to get constant feedback on the solution that you are delivering
• Assisting the team with testing work developed by the Software Engineers in your team to meet a sprint deadline
• Using scripts to extract some data from Rightmove’s databases to make an evidenced-based decision on pro’s and con’s of different solution designs
• Building low-code workflows and customisations within our CRM system to improve sales enablement
• Writing SQL to modify data within Rightmove’s business applications
• Develop and maintain efficient slide deck automation templates to streamline the operational efficiency of our Account Managers
