The Opportunity
An established and highly regarded professional services organisation is seeking an experienced Business Analyst to join its growing IT function. This is an exciting opportunity to work on a varied portfolio of technology and business change initiatives, partnering with stakeholders across the organisation to deliver meaningful improvements.
