As a Business Analyst, you will work with stakeholders across the University to understand their existing and future business requirements, to review services and processes, to identify where Digital & Technology can continue to add value. You will place the user at the centre of our design process and propose solutions that can adapt and scale as user and University needs evolve. You will present findings to and advocate your recommendations for senior management teams across our business services, supported by your Head of Product and/or Director.
Working across the full product lifecycle, you will be involved in discovery, requirements gathering, process mapping, testing, transition activities and support. You will play a pivotal role in the successful embedding of change within the organisation whilst encouraging and promoting best practice across the portfolio and analysis team.
