Senior Integration Systems Analyst

Hybrid - 1 day per week onsite in Manchester
Salary - Up to £55,000 per annum

Are you an experienced Business Systems Analyst with a strong understanding of integrations, APIs and complex technology environments?

This is an exciting opportunity to join a collaborative technology team where you’ll play a key role in improving how systems connect, share data and support the wider organisation.

You’ll work across a range of integration projects, partnering with technical teams and senior stakeholders to turn business needs into practical, scalable solutions. It’s a role where you’ll have the opportunity to influence how technology works across the organisation rather than simply gathering requirements and passing them on.

What you'll be doing

  • Lead the analysis and delivery of integrations between enterprise applications, cloud platforms and third-party systems.
  • Work closely with stakeholders to understand their needs and translate them into clear technical and functional requirements.
  • Create and maintain functional specifications, user stories, acceptance criteria, process maps, interface designs and data mappings.
  • Analyse system interactions and data flows, identifying opportunities to improve automation, data quality and business processes.
  • Work collaboratively with developers, testers, architects, Product Owners and external suppliers to deliver effective solutions.
  • Support the development and optimisation of APIs, middleware and integration technologies.
  • Ensure requirements are clear, detailed and testable, helping development and testing teams deliver with confidence.
  • Investigate integration issues and coordinate with technical teams to identify and resolve problems.
  • Carry out impact assessments for system changes, upgrades and new implementations, identifying risks, dependencies and potential challenges.
  • Contribute to Agile ceremonies, backlog refinement and prioritisation.
  • Present recommendations, options and proposed solutions to senior stakeholders and governance groups.
  • Help ensure solutions meet appropriate security, data protection, governance and regulatory requirements.

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.
