описание
This is a senior, high-impact Business Analysis role for someone who combines structured BA capability with strong technical understanding of enterprise data delivery. You will lead complex data requirements from discovery through delivery, produce clear specifications for data integrations and semantic models, and influence senior stakeholders on the right approach.
задачи
- Lead the initiation, discovery, requirements definition and delivery of data-focused initiatives across underwriting, operations and finance.
- Apply a structured Business Analysis approach across the full software development lifecycle, maintaining traceability from business need through to delivered outcome.
- Take ownership of complex workstreams and smaller data projects, providing direction to colleagues and reducing reliance on senior leaders for day-to-day stakeholder management.
- Contribute to the evolution of BA standards, templates, quality controls and ways of working across the data function.
- Produce clear, engineering-ready specifications for data integrations, including source and target structures, mappings, transformation and business rules, validation, data-quality controls, dependencies, exception handling and acceptance criteria.
- Define requirements for semantic models, data warehouse solutions and analytical data platforms, distinguishing between specifying a solution and building it directly.
- Use data flows, lineage, source-to-target mappings, reporting specifications and conceptual or logical data models to remove ambiguity and support scalable delivery.
- Work with Data Architecture and Engineering teams to clarify requirements, challenge assumptions and maintain shared understanding throughout delivery.
- Lead workshops and conversations with senior business and technical stakeholders, including where priorities, viewpoints or levels of technical understanding differ.
- Translate complex data concepts into concise, practical recommendations that enable stakeholders to understand and support the proposed approach.
- Build commitment to delivery plans and technical direction, escalating only where appropriate.
- Support adoption and transition into business as usual, ensuring the solution addresses the original business need.
- Embed data ownership, definitions, standards, controls and quality requirements into specifications and delivery.
- Support data-quality assessment, issue definition, remediation requirements and agreement of measurable acceptance criteria.
- Ensure delivery aligns with enterprise data strategy, governance expectations and the organisation’s regulated operating environment.
требования

- Demonstrable experience producing specifications for enterprise data integrations, data warehouses or semantic models for delivery by Engineering teams.
- Strong understanding of the software development lifecycle and how requirements move from discovery through build, testing, acceptance and adoption.
- Practical understanding of data structures, mappings, transformation rules, data quality, lineage and conceptual or logical data modelling.
- Evidence of influencing senior stakeholders and translating technical data concepts for non-technical audiences.
- Ability to lead work independently, structure ambiguous problems and provide direction within a multidisciplinary team.

условия
