Join a forward-thinking team at the heart of our data transformation journey. As a Senior Business Analyst in our Data Delivery team, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping how data is managed, governed, and leveraged across the firm—driving smarter decisions, operational efficiency, and innovation.
About the Role
You’ll work across business and technology teams to analyse processes, gather and define requirements, and support the delivery of high-quality data products. This role goes beyond traditional business analysis: you’ll be instrumental in designing and optimising data flows, supporting data mapping requirements, ensuring robust data governance, and supporting the full data management lifecycle. From strategic discovery work to hands-on delivery support, you’ll help ensure our data initiatives are aligned with business needs and deliver real value.
What You’ll Do
- Analyse and optimise business processes, with a focus on how data is captured, transformed, and consumed across the firm.
- Facilitate workshops and stakeholder interviews to elicit both business and technical data requirements.
- Define and document functional and non-functional requirements for data products, including data quality, security, and compliance needs.
- Support delivery teams with clear acceptance criteria and robust documentation to ensure traceability and quality assurance throughout the data lifecycle.
- Collaborate with data specialists, engineers, and product owners to shape data product roadmaps and deliver solutions that enable better decision-making.
- Enable change and user adoption through collaboration, creating user journeys and supporting business change initiatives.
- Build strong relationships across IT, business functions, and legal practice groups to ensure alignment and shared outcomes.
