Technical Business Analyst - Public Sector

FDM is a global business and technology consultancy seeking a Technical Business Analyst to work for our client within the public sector. This is initially a 3-month contract with the potential to extend and will be a hybrid role that will be based in Manchester.

We are seeking an experienced Technical Business Analyst to support a strategic technology transformation programme. The organisation is currently operating legacy software that is no longer fit for purpose and is looking to define future business requirements, develop a target operating model, and undertake a formal procurement process to identify and implement a replacement solution.

The successful candidate will play a key role in understanding current business processes, eliciting and documenting requirements, defining future-state operating models, supporting procurement activities, and ensuring business needs are translated into clear solution requirements for potential suppliers.

Responsibilities

Requirements Elicitation & Analysis

  • Lead workshops and stakeholder interviews to capture, challenge and document business requirements.
  • Analyse current systems, processes, and ways of working to identify pain points and opportunities for improvement.
  • Produce high-quality business requirements, functional requirements, user stories, use cases and process documentation.
  • Facilitate consensus across stakeholders with varying priorities and requirements.
  • Define and maintain requirements traceability throughout the programme lifecycle.

Business Process & Operating Model Design

  • Conduct current-state ("As-Is") process analysis and mapping.
  • Design future-state ("To-Be") processes aligned to business objectives and technology capabilities.
  • Support the development of Target Operating Models (TOMs) covering people, process, technology and governance considerations.
  • Identify process improvement and transformation opportunities.

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.
