Business Analyst

£51,270.06 per annum
Wythenshawe, Manchester
Hours of work: 35 per week

Permanent, Full Time

We’re looking for a skilled and people-focused Business Analyst to join our ICT, Data and Digital team.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys understanding how organisations work, building strong relationships with stakeholders, and helping turn ideas into practical improvements. You'll work across Wythenshawe Community Housing Group (WCHG) to understand challenges, identify opportunities, and help shape solutions that improve services for both colleagues and customers.

Whilst strong analytical skills are important, this role is equally about people. You'll spend a significant amount of time engaging with stakeholders, facilitating workshops, challenging constructively, and building trusted relationships that help drive meaningful change across the organisation.

About the Role

As a Business Analyst, you'll support a range of transformation, change, and digital improvement initiatives. You'll work closely with colleagues across all areas of the business, gathering requirements, mapping processes, and ensuring solutions are genuinely aligned with business needs.

This is a varied role that combines analytical thinking with communication, facilitation, and relationship-building skills.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Working closely with stakeholders to understand challenges, gather requirements, and identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Facilitating workshops and discussions to help teams shape solutions and achieve shared outcomes.
  • Mapping and analysing current and future business processes, identifying opportunities to improve efficiency and customer experience.
  • Supporting project delivery by defining requirements, shaping acceptance criteria, and contributing to testing and implementation activities.
  • Building strong working relationships across the organisation, acting as a trusted partner throughout change initiatives.
  • Supporting continuous improvement by promoting best practice and helping embed a culture of innovation 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.
