You will deliver process maps, wireframes, user stories and appropriate artefacts to support the projects success.

As a Business Analyst you will be expected to have an inquiring mind; somebody who readily gains rapport with others and somebody who isnt afraid to encourage people to think about their work from perspectives that may not come naturally to them. Your attitude will be that of somebody who sees how challenges can be overcome, rather than somebody who sees problems that prevent progress. Responsibilities Business engagement, change management, process improvement, requirements engineering and benefits realisation. Support the process of taking business users through a structured engagement process to deliver their required changes. Identify and analyse problems and issues that may affect the successful adoption of change initiatives.
