About the Role

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Business Analyst to join our organisation and play a pivotal role in a SOX controls remediation programme. This role is critical in driving the rationalisation, standardisation, and centralisation of business processes across the enterprise.

The successful candidate will bring deep expertise in business process transformation, combined with a strong understanding of controls environments, to ensure that processes are not only efficient and scalable, but also compliant with SOX and other regulatory standards.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with stakeholders across Finance, Risk, Compliance, and Operations to analyse existing business processes and identify inefficiencies, redundancies, and risks.
• Lead the design and implementation of streamlined, standardised, and centralised business processes that enhance control effectiveness and operational efficiency.
• Support the SOX remediation programme by identifying gaps in control design, recommending improvements, and ensuring alignment with regulatory requirements.
• Document and map "as-is" and "to-be" processes, ensuring clarity for stakeholders and audit purposes.
• Facilitate workshops with senior stakeholders to drive consensus on future-state processes and operating models.
• Work closely with technology teams to translate business requirements into functional specifications for system enhancements or automation.
• Establish and manage governance frameworks for process ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement.
• Act as a trusted advisor to senior leadership, providing insights and recommendations on process optimisation, risk reduction, and organisational change.

Skills & Experience Required

• 10+ years of experience in business analysis, process transformation, or related roles, with at least 5 years in senior or lead BA positions.
• Experienced in rationalising, standardising, and centralising business processes in complex, multi-entity organisations.
• Strong knowledge of SOX compliance and internal controls frameworks, ideally gained through remediation or implementation programmes.
• Demonstrated ability to manage stakeholder relationships at senior levels, with strong influencing and facilitation skills.
• Excellent process mapping, requirements gathering, and documentation skills (e.g., BPMN, Visio, or equivalent tools).
• Experience working within regulated environments (financial services, banking, or large corporates preferred).
• Strong understanding of governance, risk, and compliance principles.
• Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.
• Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to translate complex issues into clear recommendations.
