Job Title: Business Analyst/Quality Assurance (BA/QA) Specialist

UK Top 100 Professional Services Organisation
A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Business & Testing Analyst to join a highly respected UK Top 100 professional services client. This role sits within a mature, collaborative Application Development function and plays a pivotal part in ensuring high-quality delivery across business analysis, functional testing, and UAT readiness.
You'll work closely with the Lead Business Analyst, Application Development Manager, developers, business stakeholders, and QA resources to ensure requirements are clearly defined, testable, and delivered to production with confidence.
What You'll Be Doing
- Test Design: Create test cases aligned to acceptance criteria, covering functional, edge-case and data-driven scenarios.
- Quality Assurance: Execute functional testing, support regression cycles, manage defects end-to-end, and validate Definition of Done.
- Business Analysis: Gather and document requirements, write clear user stories, define acceptance criteria (including Given/When/Then), and support backlog refinement.
- UAT Readiness: Prepare UAT environments, validate test data, confirm integrations, and act as a quality gate before business testing.
- Change & Release Governance: Ensure traceability from requirement to release, validate deployment readiness, and support post-release smoke testing.
- Continuous Improvement: Champion shift-left quality, improve testing practices, and enhance delivery processes.
- Collaboration: Work closely with stakeholders, developers, training teams, offshore testers, and the Product Owner to ensure clarity and alignment.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
