Birmingham / Hybrid
Help us shape the future of how we work.
At GreenSquareAccord, we're continuing to invest in transformation, systems and improving the way we deliver our services. We're looking for an experienced Business Analyst to join our Strategic Delivery and Change team on a 12-month fixed-term contract.
This is an exciting opportunity to work across a varied portfolio of projects, supporting business transformation, new system implementations and operational improvements.
You'll play an important role in understanding how our processes currently operate, identifying opportunities for improvement and ensuring new systems and ways of working are properly mapped, documented and tested.
The Role
Reporting to the Senior Project and Change Manager, you'll work across a combination of business-as-usual activities and project work, supporting initiatives across Finance and the wider organisation.
You'll be responsible for gathering and documenting business requirements, mapping existing and future processes, facilitating workshops and working closely with stakeholders to ensure projects are delivered with a clear understanding of business needs.
A key part of the role will involve supporting new finance system projects, mapping new processes and reviewing existing ones to ensure they are fit for purpose.
You'll also support ongoing transformation activity, including projects such as Voids, system development and wider business improvement initiatives.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead workshops and stakeholder discussions to understand business requirements, processes and opportunities for improvement.
- Map existing (AS-IS) and future (TO-BE) business processes across new and existing projects.
- Gather, analyse and document clear business requirements, including user stories and acceptance criteria.
- Work closely with Project Managers, the Data Migration Lead and wider project teams to support successful project delivery.
- Support new finance system implementations and wider transformation programmes.
- Identify process gaps, inefficiencies and opportunities to improve existing ways of working.
- Contribute to testing frameworks, ensuring requirements are accurately captured and can be translated into effective testing.
- Maintain clear and accurate process maps, documentation and business analysis artefacts.
- Build effective relationships with stakeholders across different departments, ensuring business needs are understood and reflected in project outcomes.
About You
We're looking for an experienced Business Analyst who can confidently engage with stakeholders, lead workshops and translate complex business requirements into clear, practical documentation.
You'll ideally have:
- Previous experience working in a Business Analyst role, supporting projects and business change.
- Strong experience in business process mapping, including AS-IS and TO-BE mapping.
- Proven experience gathering, documenting and managing business requirements.
- Experience writing user stories and acceptance criteria.
- Confidence facilitating workshops and engaging with stakeholders at different levels.
- Experience supporting systems implementation, transformation or business improvement projects.
- A good understanding of testing frameworks and how business requirements translate into testing.
- Strong communication, analytical and problem-solving skills.
Experience using process mapping tools such as Visio or similar would be beneficial.
Experience within housing associations, local authorities or the wider public sector would also be advantageous, but isn't essential.
What's on Offer?
- Salary of £46,000–£50,200 per annum, depending on experience.
- 12-month fixed-term contract.
- Hybrid working, with one day per week in our Birmingham office.
- The opportunity to work across a diverse portfolio of transformation and systems projects.
- The chance to make a tangible difference by improving processes and ways of working across the organisation.
