Mission Overview
Join Keystone Solutions as a Functional Analyst consultant for a mission at our client. The client is undergoing a strategic transformation to become a more digitally driven organisation, serving 100 million annual customers. As a Keystone Solutions consultant, you will support the digital transformation of the customer experience across the group. The role is based in Brussels with a hybrid arrangement: 3 days in the office and 2 days remote.
About the Role
We are looking for a Functional Analyst who combines strong analytical and modeling skills with a deep understanding of business processes and modern IT architecture. You will play a key role in designing and evolving systems that support billing, revenue collection, and revenue assurance processes while also enabling front-end teams through robust APIs and modular services. This is not a traditional Business Analyst role. We are looking for someone who can bridge the gap between business needs and technical implementation, ensuring continuity across complex processes and systems. As a Keystone Solutions consultant, you will perform these responsibilities on-site and in close collaboration with the clients teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Analyze and model business processes using UML, BPMN, and API modeling tools.
- Translate business needs into functional specifications that are modular, service-oriented, and technically coherent.
- Collaborate with architects, developers, and business stakeholders to ensure end-to-end process alignment.
- Challenge and refine requirements to ensure they are complete, consistent, and aligned with architectural principles.
- Ensure functional continuity across systems and teams — not just within your own scope.
- Support the transformation from legacy systems to modular, API-driven architecture.
- Document and communicate complex information in a structured and accessible way.
- Contribute to testing strategies and validate functional deliverables.
