The role
Inside IR35, Senior Business Analyst, Process and Data Specialist, Wealth Management
We are seeking an experienced Senior Business Analyst to play a key role in a major Risk and Financial Crime transformation programme within a leading Wealth Management environment.
This is a highly visible, hands-on role requiring an individual who combines the stakeholder management and problem-solving capabilities of a senior Business Analyst with the technical investigation skills of a Data Analyst.
You will work across business, risk, compliance and technology teams to shape complex problems, challenge assumptions, define effective solutions and ensure successful delivery. Equally comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders, architects and data engineers, you'll be expected to dive into data, perform your own SQL analysis and translate insights into clear, actionable requirements. We are looking for someone who can operate confidently across both Process and data domains.
What you'll do
- Partner with business owners, SMEs and technology teams to define, challenge and prioritise requirements.
- Facilitate workshops and stakeholder engagement sessions across Risk, Financial Crime, Compliance and Technology functions.
- Translate business objectives, regulatory findings and remediation activities into clear business, data, technology and integration requirements.
- Produce high-quality user stories, acceptance criteria and functional documentation.
- Analyse business processes, system integrations and end-to-end data flows to identify gaps and improvement opportunities.
- Perform hands-on data analysis using SQL to investigate data quality issues, reconciliations and business queries.
- Conduct data profiling, mapping, lineage and source-to-target analysis.
- Investigate issues across applications, interfaces, reference data and downstream reporting processes.
- Collaborate with Architecture, Data Engineering and Technology teams to design pragmatic and scalable solutions.
- Identify opportunities to leverage existing platforms, integrations and data assets.
- Support the delivery of regulatory, governance and control-related initiatives.
What We're Looking For
The successful candidate will be intellectually curious, commercially aware and comfortable working in environments where problems are not always clearly defined. They will bring a combination of business analysis expertise, strong technical acumen and hands-on data investigation capability, enabling them to bridge the gap between business objectives and technology delivery.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a high-profile transformation programme and play a central role in delivering strategic risk and financial crime change initiatives.
