  • Configuring new Blue Prism processes and objects using core workflow principles that are efficient, well structured, maintainable and easy to understand
  • Following and maintaining solution documentation
  • Supporting existing processes and implementing change requirements as part of a structured change control process
  • Problem solving issues that arise in the daily running of Blue Prism processes and providing timely responses and solutions as required
  • Working within project planning constraints, communicating any identified project risks and issues to the delivery/project manager accordingly and providing inputs to the change control process
  • Creating and documenting test procedures and scenarios for the pre-UAT phases
  • Supporting the Operational Teams during the UAT and roll-out phases.
  • An aptitude for logic and mathematics.
  • Good interpersonal skills with the ability to interview colleagues, gather business process details and identify solution requirements.
  • Good communication skills with the ability to present technical details to a non-technical audience.
  • A working knowledge of current business processes and the ability to understand new business processes.
  • An ability to envisage how an automated solution will work in the wider business environment, to understand its advantages and what its effect will be.
  • The ability to work with a structured and methodical approach, combined with an enquiring mind.
  • An aptitude for problem solving, with the ability to take a logical route to the source of an error.
  • A self-starter who delivers high quality work and can adapt to new challenges, either on their own or as part of a team.
  • Good written skills with the ability to clearly document and explain business processes and automated solution designs.
  • The ability to conceptualise Blue Prism solutions and understand the prescribed Blue Prism design architecture.
  • An understanding of workflow based logic and the ability to both understand a business process from a workflow diagram, and to illustrate a written process description as a workflow diagram.
  • Solid end user computing skills, for example intermediate spreadsheet user or similar. Any deeper technological experience such as coding or databases is advantageous but not essential.
  • An understanding of formal change control procedures and disciplines.
  • An understanding of software delivery methodologies (i.e. AGILE, Waterfall, V&V Model).
