In this role, you will help clients build strong business cases for technology solutions, translate ideas into detailed requirements, capture essential functionality in specifications, design test scenarios, and document business procedures. You'll also play a key part in shaping recommendations, identifying opportunities and issues, testing software, modeling data, and developing training material.

If you love digging into details—asking great questions, cutting through the noise, and seeing both the risks and the rewards in every possible solution—you’ll feel right at home here. If you can read a bit of code or write a solid SQL query, all the better. Most importantly, if you enjoy rolling up your sleeves to support your team and clients whenever it’s needed, we’d love to hear from you.

• Liaise with developers, lead priorities for your assigned product areas, and keep communication flowing.

• Document and present findings and recommendations clearly for business and development audiences alike.

• Build and execute unit tests on new software developed by the team.
  Review completed solutions with clients to confirm all business needs are met.

• Lead focus groups and information sessions to support successful rollout and adoption.

• Present your products internally to share knowledge and collect feedback.

• Troubleshoot client-reported issues with the application and propose effective solutions.

Basic Skill Level Requirements

Education:

• University degree in Economics, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

• Solid understanding of the Canadian Wealth Management sector.

• Familiarity with systems integration life cycle and agile methodologies.

Experience:

• At least 3 years as a software Business Analyst, or equivalent experience in brokerage/financial services.

Skills/Tools:

• Proven Business Analyst skills in financial services—especially securities/brokerage: requirements gathering, impact analysis, process mapping, and cost/benefit assessment.

• Experience developing functional business test cases and test plans.

• Design, data modeling, and prototyping skills.

• Proficiency in MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Visio).

• Exposure to programming and ability to read code or write SQL.

• Experience with AI tools or technologies—and the curiosity and drive to keep learning and incorporating AI solutions in your work.

• Familiarity with cryptocurrencies or blockchain technologies is an asset.

• Some project management experience is a bonus.

What You Bring:

• Strong analytical skills—great at structuring messy problems into actionable plans.

• Excellent interpersonal skills (consensus-building, negotiation, facilitation).

• Confident communicator (client interviews, business writing, presentations).

• Inherent curiosity and a drive for self-learning.

• Collaborative, team-centered attitude
