About the role

The senior business analyst will identify and formalize business requirements while managing complex interdependencies within corporate finance risk model projects. The role involves navigating a multi-stakeholder environment to arbitrate interests and ensure effective process modeling and testing strategies.

What they look for

Business Analysis Corporate Finance Risk Models Process Modeling Requirements Gathering Traceability Testing Strategy Project Management Agile Hybrid Waterfall Jira Confluence Change Management Stakeholder Management Risk Management

Requirements

Candidates must possess senior-level experience in business analysis, specifically within the corporate finance or credit sector. Proficiency in project management methodologies and tools like Jira and Confluence is required, along with the ability to lead and influence senior management.

Full description

The Client envisions a senior business analyst who combines traditional business analysis practices (identifying and formalizing needs and requirements, process modeling, end-to-end traceability, and testing strategy) with an understanding of the corporate finance field and its associated risk models.

The Risk Model Review project is a major, multi-year undertaking. Recurring themes include numerous interdependencies, a very large number of stakeholders, uncertainty and ambiguity, and the need for leadership and influence with senior management.

Therefore, the true priority is not simply document mechanics, but the ability to navigate a complex environment and arbitrate between multiple interests. The ideal candidate understands and uses corporate finance risk models, but is not the quantitative modeler who develops them. Three profiles should not be confused with this role: the functional or IT systems analyst (the position is a business analyst), the project manager or PMO (the candidate masters the methodologies but does not lead the project), and the risk modeler or quantitative analyst (the candidate uses the models, he does not develop them).

Requirements

REQUIRED

  • Senior experience in business analysis (needs, requirements,

end-to-end traceability, business process modeling)

  • Knowledge of business financing (corporate financing)
  • Advanced mastery of project management methodologies (Agile,

Hybrid, Waterfall)

  • Advanced mastery of JIRA and Confluence

DESIRED

  • Knowledge of risk management tools
  • Knowledge of process analysis and improvement
  • Contribution to testing strategies and the acceptance

testing plan

  • Contribution to change management activities

ASSET

  • Previous experience at client or a comparable financial institution
  • Experience on large-scale, multi-year projects

Note: The different methodologies (Agile, Hybrid, Waterfall) are considered a list of examples. Requiring all three at an advanced level would unnecessarily restrict the candidate pool, as Hybrid already encompasses elements of both Agile and Waterfall.

WHAT WE DON'T WANT

▸ Resume without experience in business analysis (formalizing needs and requirements, process modeling).

▸ Resume without exposure to the corporate finance or corporate credit sector.

▸ Profile focused on functional analysis or IT systems, without a business analysis component.

▸ Project management profile (project manager, PMO) without business analysis achievements on the resume.

▸ Resume without mention of JIRA or Confluence.

▸ Resume without demonstrated senior experience in business analysis (the position is at the senior level).
