Business Analyst – Divestment
Location: UK-based | Fully Remote
Contract: 3 months
Rate: Up to £600 per day | Outside IR35
Start Date: ASAP
We are looking for an experienced Business Analyst to join a high-impact business divestment programme with a global organisation. This is a fantastic opportunity for a BA with experience in divestment, carve-outs, business separation or M&A to play a key role in understanding how a business currently operates and what is required for it to successfully operate as a standalone organisation.
You'll work across the business to identify dependencies, ask the right questions and help define what needs to be separated, established or retained across the organisation. This is a holistic business analysis role, so we're looking for someone who can look beyond individual systems or processes and understand the wider picture.
What You'll Be Doing
- Analyse the current state of the business being divested and understand how it operates within the wider organisation.
- Identify dependencies between the business being divested and the parent organisation.
- Assess what the business needs to operate independently following separation.
- Engage with stakeholders across Finance, HR, Sales, Operations, Legal, IT, Data and other business functions.
- Identify business, operational, process, people, data, application and technology dependencies.
- Ask the right questions to uncover hidden dependencies and separation requirements.
- Support the definition of the future-state/standalone business environment.
- Document current-state and future-state processes, requirements, dependencies and gaps.
- Work collaboratively with business and technical stakeholders across the UK, Europe and the US.
- Support the wider divestment programme with clear analysis, documentation and actionable recommendations.
- Help ensure that critical business capabilities are understood and addressed as part of the separation.
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.
