Lead Business Analyst - Business Banking & Payments

We're looking for a Lead Business Analyst to play a key role in shaping the future of Business Banking Payments. Working across complex payment initiatives, you'll lead the analysis and design of solutions that improve customer journeys, strengthen operational processes and support strategic business objectives.

You'll use your expertise in business and corporate banking payments to translate complex requirements into clear target states, delivery roadmaps and practical solutions across domestic and international payments, cash management and payment servicing.

Working closely with business, technology and operational stakeholders, you'll help deliver change that balances customer value, regulatory requirements, operational resilience and commercial outcomes. You'll also provide leadership and direction to analysts, driving high standards of analysis, stakeholder engagement and delivery excellence.

At Nationwide we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected.

For this job you'll spend at least two days per week, or if part time you'll spend 40% of your working time, based at either our London, Edinburgh, Gosforth or Glasgow office. If you’re based at our Glasgow office, this will apply from 1 April 2027 and ahead of that there will be a need to regularly connect with colleagues for collaboration events. If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works. You can also find out more about our approach to hybrid working here.

If we receive a high volume of relevant applications, we may close the advert earlier than the advertised date, so please apply as soon as you can.
