Overview

Our client, a leading European Life Sciences & Healthcare organisation, is embarking on a large-scale IT, Cloud & Business Transformation Programme aimed at modernising core business applications, streamlining operational processes, and accelerating their cloud journey.

As the programme enters a critical delivery phase, they are looking for a highly hands‑on Senior Business Analyst who can bridge the gap between business stakeholders and technology teams, driving requirements definition, process optimisation, and transformation initiatives across multiple workstreams.

This is not a documentation‑only role. We are looking for someone who enjoys being embedded within the business, challenging existing ways of working, facilitating workshops, and actively shaping future‑state solutions.

Responsibilities

• Engage with business and technical stakeholders to understand current‑state processes and system landscapes.
• Lead requirements gathering workshops across multiple departments.
• Analyse and document complex business processes, identifying inefficiencies and improvement opportunities.
• Develop current‑state and future‑state process maps.
• Define and document business, functional and non‑functional requirements.
• Translate business requirements into actionable functional specifications.
• Work closely with solution architects, developers, project managers and integration teams throughout project delivery.
• Support cloud migration and application transformation initiatives.
• Conduct gap analyses between legacy systems and future‑state solutions.
• Facilitate stakeholder alignment and decision‑making workshops.
• Support testing activities including UAT planning, execution and defect management.
• Track requirements through implementation to ensure business objectives are achieved.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives across business and technology functions.

Ideal Candidate

We are specifically seeking a hands‑on Business Analyst who thrives in workshops, stakeholder engagement, requirements gathering and process improvement. The successful candidate will be comfortable operating at both strategic and operational levels, spending time with end users, challenging existing processes and driving tangible transformation outcomes rather than simply producing documentation.
