As a Business Analyst you will look at how a company operates – conducting research and analysing data to develop their knowledge – and suggest methods for the company to improve their practices and processes.


This is usually done with the aim of helping the company to make more money, solve existing business problems and/or better achieve their goals. When a company identifies an issue that they’d like to fix, you will look deeply into the situation.


You will hold discussions with all stakeholders, including anyone in the company who is affected by a business problem, such as an HR team, or business unit manager. You will then ensure an in-depth understanding of the requirements and then suggest the appropriate solutions.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Understanding business needs as they relate to a potential change or transformation.
  • Gathering, identifying and documenting business requirements.
  • Explaining technical jargon to non-technical/commercial teams.
  • Simplifying requirements, so they are easily understood across the whole team.
  • Business process modelling and improving business processes.
  • Identifying costs and business savings.
  • Implementing, testing and deploying solutions to business problems.
  • Supporting business transition and helping to establish change.
  • Creating functional specifications for new systems and processes.

  • Understanding why change is required in the business.
  • Assisting with change management processes and procedures.
  • Delivering and supporting the implementation of projects.
  • Scoping and configuring bespoke solutions to specific problems.
  • Analysing the impact of business decisions, such as the need for a new IT system.
  • Providing support to senior business analysts.

Requirements

  • The capacity to motivate others and lead change
  • The ability to work under pressure on multiple projects within your project timeframes
  • A passion for creating solutions with a positive attitude to change
