We’re hiring a sharp, experienced Business Analyst to join a fast-growing enterprise transformation practice delivering critical change across global financial services.

• Act as a bridge between business teams, technology vendors, and delivery partners
• Influence decision-making through well-evidenced recommendations

Core Responsibilities:

• Run structured workshops and interviews to extract genuine business needs
• Map current-state processes and design optimised future-state workflows
• Conduct data analysis to ensure quality and integrity across systems
• Support configuration and system decisions to maximise value
• Manage data migration planning and execution
• Communicate effectively across technical and non-technical stakeholders

What You Bring:

• 5+ years of hands-on experience as a Business Analyst in enterprise transformation
• Strong track record within Financial Services (banking, fintech, insurance, etc.)
• Familiarity with financial planning or ERP tools like Planful, Workday, Anaplan, or Adaptive
• Excellent stakeholder engagement skills across all levels of an organisation
• Skilled in Agile and Waterfall delivery environments
• Confident using tools like JIRA, Azure DevOps, and BPMN or process mapping software
• Solid understanding of data migration and integration challenges

Why Join Us:

• Work with Tier 1 consultancies on transformation projects for FTSE 100 and Fortune 500 clients
• Competitive salary, performance bonuses, and career progression
• Funded professional development (e.g., CBAP, BCS certifications)
• Flexible hybrid working (typically 2–3 days onsite)
• Real ownership, real exposure, and real impact from day one
