About The Role

As a Business Analyst, you will play a vital role in enabling change across the organisation by providing clarity, structure, and actionable insights to solve complex business problems. By collaborating with stakeholders, analysing business needs, and designing efficient processes, you will help bridge the gap between customer aspirations and operational realities. Your work will directly influence decision-making, ensuring solutions deliver meaningful value for both customers and the organisation.

The key purpose of this role is to understand the business problem and the solution options that will enable the objectives of a change programme to be achieved. The role holder will be responsible for facilitating all elements of business design including discovery, scoping, options analysis, requirements definition, business process design, and capability maturity analysis and operating model design. The role holder will be accountable for assuring delivery against requirements to the quality and level required that will drive the right business outcomes and ensure realisation of the Business Strategy.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Leads discovery, scoping and options analysis to clearly define business problems, customer needs and value opportunities for change.
  • Translates insights into clear, structured requirements (business, functional, non-functional, data), epics, features and user stories that enable effective delivery across squads.
  • Designs end-to-end business processes, journeys and capabilities that align with customer objectives, BT standards and operational feasibility, including unhappy path and edge-case analysis.
  • Works across business, product, engineering and service design teams to assess solution feasibility, align priorities, and support evidence-based decision-making.
  • Produces high-quality analysis artefacts including process maps, capability maturity assessments, data requirements and options papers, maintaining traceability to business outcomes.
  • Supports the definition of MVPs/MMPs, phasing and road mapping to enable incremental delivery and maximise customer and business value.
  • Ensures requirements and designs meet standards and contributes to quality assurance of BA outputs within the function.
  • Acts as an expert practitioner and mentor for Business Analyst Professionals, providing coaching, quality assurance and thought leadership to strengthen capability across the function.
  • Influences stakeholders at all levels, including senior leaders, to align priorities, resolve competing needs and enable informed decision-making.
  • Contributes to the continuous improvement of ways of working, reusable patterns, tools and frameworks to drive consistency and efficiency.

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.
