Business Analyst
Your key area of focus as a Consultant will be as a Business Analyst. This will put you at the forefront of Deloitte’s approach to process focused projects. You will be required to identify, document, and analyse our clients’ processes and the challenges they face. You will then provide recommendations on how to improve these processes that include the latest techniques for visualising requirements. This will enable the creation of traceable solution requirements and functional designs, to ensure our clients’ business and technology requirements are met. These recommendations will call for you to understand a range of different products, including emerging technologies, which can contribute to the improvement of processes and the realisation of the benefits sought by our clients.
As a Business Analyst you will engage with client stakeholders across multiple grades and disciplines in relation to the processes you are analysing. You should also be keenly aware of cultural and behavioural considerations around any process that you examine and be capable of factoring in process changes to your recommendations that don’t always rely on a technology driven solution. You should be able to communicate how these considerations play a role in aligning an organisation’s IT strategy and operating model with that of its business strategy and goals.
