Overview:
Our Business Analyst plays a vital role as the glue in our project/task team. As our primary in-house client advocate, the Business Analyst works closely with the stakeholders, technical team, and SMEs to lead and facilitate discussions to understand the client's needs, ask clarifying questions, discuss alternative scenarios, and turn them into requirements. Once the requirements are captured, the Business Analyst will work closely with our technical team (product owners, project manager, development manager, and technical lead) to help design and develop a solution to meet the client's requirements. Throughout the project's life, the Business Analyst's primary responsibility is representing the client and ensuring all deliverables align with the project's vision. This involves working with virtually every member of the project team, both internal and client-facing, to facilitate communication, review the quality of deliverables, and ensure project success.
To be successful as a Business Analyst, you should be a self-driven and curious person with great attention to detail. Since the Business Analyst role is the glue for all projects, strong verbal and written communication skills are a priority, as the ability to work with a vast array of project team members. More importantly, one must have an interest in problem-solving, a positive attitude, and a willingness to learn. Ultimately, working as a Business Analyst, you will learn to quickly break down and understand varying business processes, help to identify gaps or areas for improvement in those processes, and then work with our Senior Business Analyst or Application Owner to translate those into requirements via visual and written documentation. Because our clients span a wide range of internal organizational styles, no two projects are the same, and business Analyst bridge the gap between operational and technical resources. Our Business Analysts should be able to follow our standard project processes and adjust those processes on the fly to meet the needs of the client or project.
This Business Analyst role will be focused heavily on NetSuite and Bullhorn applications, and may support other systems such as UKG, ADP, Marketo, Salesforce, ServiceNow, etc.
