The Digital Operations Business Partner (DOBP)
The Digital Operations Business Partner (DOBP) is a senior, business-facing role within Aon’s Global Broking Centre (GBC), accountable for shaping, enabling, and embedding digital change across broking operations.
This is not a traditional project or programme role. The DOBP operates as the bridge between operational reality and digital delivery—deeply embedded in BAU, trusted by business leaders, and able to translate insight into practical, implementable design that supports the GBC Target Operating Model.
The role sits at the heart of Aon’s broking transformation, supporting platforms such as Aon Broker CoPilot (ABCoP), GRIDS, DPX (Digital Placement Exchange), PACT, and London Market digital trading platforms including Whitespace and PPL.
Aon is in the business of better decisions
At Aon, we shape decisions for the better to protect and enrich the lives of people around the world.
As an organisation, we are united through trust as one inclusive team and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.
What The Day Will Look Like
Business-led digital change & requirements ownership
- Act as the primary business owner for requirements across assigned digital platforms.
- Translate operational pain points and opportunities into clear, pragmatic digital design inputs.
- Balance structured requirements with insight-led shaping, prioritisation, and simplification.
- Ensure technology solutions reflect how work actually happens in broking and operations.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
