Business Analyst - £700 p/d (inside IR35) - Hybrid (3x days p/w office) - Initial 6 months

My client is a leading global investment management business looking to hire a Business Analyst to join a cross functional team, leading change initiatives and responsible for managing stakeholder relationships for a Fund Accounting Workstream.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with a strong background in business and technical analysis, looking to influence the delivery of a major strategic programme.

The Business Analyst is expected to:

  • Lead requirements gathering using methods such as interviews, workshops, workflow analysis, and documentation reviews.
  • Collaborate with business stakeholders to define project scope and translate business needs into clear requirements.
  • Partner closely with Project Managers, or operate in a hybrid BA/PM capacity, to report progress and maintain stakeholder alignment.
  • Use tools such as SQL and Power Apps to analyse data and translate findings into actionable specifications for data engineers.
  • Contribute to Agile delivery practices within cross-functional teams.
  • Document and model current- and target-state data architecture and data flows, particularly around fund static data, ABOR, and trade data.
  • Identify technical requirements and interface specs, and document them via the SDLC using tools like Azure DevOps.
  • Support development and testing efforts, ensuring alignment with stakeholder expectations and technical feasibility.

The successful Business Analyst will possess:

  • Strong SQL and data modelling skills is a must; experience Excel with Python is a bonus.
  • Solid understanding of asset management is essential, particularly Fund Static, ABOR and trades data.
  • Experience working with data warehouses (ideally Snowflake), and tools such as LucidCharts, MS Teams, Power Apps, and Azure DevOps.
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to influence and engage across all levels.
  • Familiarity with Agile delivery environments.
