Job description

They say curiosity killed the cat… but in this line of work, curiosity is exactly what keeps you ahead of the game.

My client is searching for a Business Analyst with sharp instincts, a curious mind and the ability to uncover what others overlook. Because when business processes start getting messy, requirements become tangled and systems aren't quite behaving as they should… it takes someone with nine lives' worth of problem-solving ability to get to the bottom of it.

You’ll be the one stalking inefficiencies, pouncing on opportunities for improvement and slipping effortlessly between the worlds of business and technology.

The essentials:

• 4+ years' relevant Business Analysis experience — you've been around the alley a few times.
• A completed Bachelor's Degree in Information Technology, Computer Science or Information Systems.
• Experience analysing and documenting as-is and to-be processes — because every good investigation starts with understanding what really happened.
• Strong understanding of systems, applications, integrations and data flows.
• The ability to gather, analyse and translate business, functional and system requirements.
• A sharp eye for automation, optimisation and digitisation opportunities.
• Confidence working with stakeholders, developers, vendors and technical teams — sometimes diplomacy is more useful than claws.
• A valid driver's licence and own reliable transport are essential.

My client needs someone who can prowl through processes, uncover hidden inefficiencies, connect the clues and land on their feet when the business throws them a curveball.

You'll need to be curious enough to ask the difficult questions, clever enough to spot what others miss and confident enough to make your move when the opportunity presents itself.

After all… the best Business Analysts don't wait for problems to come to them. They hunt them down.
