Senior Business Analyst

Our aim at Made Tech is to use human-centred technology to improve our society. We believe putting people at the heart of designing, building and delivering public services leads to better outcomes for everyone.

As a Senior Business Analyst, you'll lead the analysis and design of products and services that deliver real value for users and for the organisations we work with. You'll work with stakeholders to understand complex business challenges, shape the options for change, and give teams the evidence they need to make good decisions.

You'll work with a high degree of autonomy, and you'll often be the only Business Analyst on a delivery. That means taking ownership of business analysis from discovery through to implementation: investigating the problem, understanding the policy, process and technology context, defining clear and evidence-based requirements, and staying involved as solutions are designed, built and adopted.

You'll be the person who brings clarity. You'll build trusted relationships with stakeholders at every level, translate between business and technical audiences, and use your judgement to choose an approach that's proportionate to the problem in front of you, whether the delivery is Agile, iterative or predictive.

Beyond your engagement, you'll be an active member of our Business Analysis Community of Practice, sharing what you've learned, coaching colleagues, and helping to grow our analysis capability across Made Tech and with our clients.
