- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with a proven ability to build relationships across teams.
- Well-developed analytical skills, including business process modelling, requirements gathering and elicitation, technical diagramming, and workshop facilitation.
- A good understanding of how business, data and technology changes fit together to achieve a target outcome.
- Confident use of technical diagramming and whiteboarding tools.
- Good eye for detail, with a strong track record of producing high-quality requirements documentation and analysis outputs. Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Business analysis experience across different capabilities, systems or teams; a breadth of (positive) experiences is valued alongside depth.
- A good understanding of the end-to-end SDLC process (Agile, Waterfall, hybrid etc.).
- Willingness to work with global colleagues and stakeholders and sensitivity to cultural differences, time zones etc.
What you'll be like
