The Product Development team plays a pivotal role in delivering the overall digital experience for customers, consumers and colleagues underpinning the Rightmove business.

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 alongside the Product Manager, Software Engineers and QA Engineers to understand business challenges, shape requirements, design solutions and support delivery.
The Application Analyst will deliver solutions through the configuration and improvement of business applications, whether third-party or developed by Rightmove, as well as low-code solutions that meet the needs of Rightmove’s users and the wider business.
The role will also involve working closely with end users and stakeholders to understand how processes work today, where the pain points are, and what needs to change to deliver the right outcome.
The Application Analyst role reports to the Senior Application Analyst and works closely with other Application Analysts, Platform Engineers, Product Manager, Architects and Operations team members.

- Working with end users and stakeholders to understand current processes, pain points, requirements and expected outcomes.
- Mapping processes and identifying opportunities to simplify ways of working, improve data quality or make better use of technology.
- Building practical solutions using low-code platforms, including applications, workflows and automations.
- Customising and improving third-party systems to better support business processes and user needs.

- Collaborating with Product Manager, Software Engineers and QA Engineers to agree the best approach to solving business problems.
- Sharing progress regularly with the product team and end users, using feedback to shape and improve solutions as they develop.
- Supporting testing activity across the team, including validating changes, helping meet sprint commitments and ensuring solutions are fit for purpose.
We’re looking for someone who:
- Is a creative and logical problem-solver, with a genuine interest in using technology to solve business problems.
- Can ask clear, thoughtful questions to get to the heart of what is needed.
- Can communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders and help build a shared understanding of requirements and outcomes.
- Can break down ambiguous problems into practical options, actions and requirements.
- Enjoys working collaboratively with their team to explore, challenge and improve potential solutions.
- Is comfortable constructively questioning direction when something is unclear or does not feel right.
- Takes ownership of their work and cares about the quality of what they and their team deliver.
- Can manage and prioritise their work effectively, balancing urgency with quality.
- Shares knowledge with others and asks for support when needed.
