Job description

Role Overview

The Business Analyst (BA) will be a critical bridge between the front office (business needs) and the technology development team, managing the detailed, day‑to‑day requirements for the next wave of the Digital Marketplace program. This role involves translating high‑level business requirements into technical specifications and ensuring clear communication and expectation management across teams. The ideal candidate will have experience in business analysis on large‑scale, tech‑based transformation programs.

Key Responsibilities

• Detailed Requirements Management: Get into the nitty‑gritty of writing detailed user stories.
• Technical Liaison: Work directly with the technical teams, including onshore developers who interact with the offshore team, on feasibility and estimation of requirements.
• Technical Translation: Translate business needs and functional elements into clear, technical requirements for the development teams.
• Process Adherence: Be comfortable working within a structured and sometimes prescriptive environment, adopting existing processes rather than having complete autonomy.

Required Skills & Experience

• Proven experience in Business Analysis on large‑scale, tech‑based transformation programs.
• A profile that demonstrates the ability to bridge the gap between technical processes and functional elements.
• Comfortable working in a structured environment and adopting existing program processes.
• Experience in the recruitment, HR, or staffing industry is ideal, though similar program experience in other industries is acceptable.

Exclusions

• This role does not include testing or User Acceptance Testing (UAT) responsibilities.
• A background in AI is not a critical element or a necessary factor for a stronger candidacy.

This role can be worked mostly remotely with occasional workshops and meetings in the North‑West. So proximity to this location is preferred.

The role is scheduled to extend and is an excellent opportunity to work on a new cutting edge application in the HR sector for a major international organisation.

My client is looking for a candidate to start ASAP and I have interview slots ready to be filled. So if you are interested and have the required skills then get in touch to find out more.
