Role Summary
The Business Analyst plays a key role in bridging the gap between business needs and technical solutions. Working closely with stakeholders across the organisation, the analyst is responsible for eliciting, analysing, and documenting requirements to support the delivery of effective, data-driven solutions. This role involves defining business problems, validating solutions, and supporting implementation through clear communication, structured documentation, and collaboration with technical teams — particularly the Data Team.
The Business Analyst also contributes to the continuous improvement of processes, systems, and services by facilitating workshops, performing data analysis, and ensuring knowledge transfer to operational teams. Strong analytical skills, a collaborative mindset, and the ability to challenge constructively are essential for success in this dynamic, fast-paced environment.
