* Contribute to project planning, readiness activities, and change management efforts
What You'll Bring

* Strong stakeholder engagement and communication capabilities, with the ability to translate complex concepts clearly to various audiences
* Skilled in documenting functional and technical requirements, workflows, and data structures
* Comfortable working in fast-paced, iterative environments with agile or hybrid delivery methodologies
* Familiarity with tools like Jira and Confluence
* Ability to develop ERDs and interpret system architecture diagrams
* Collaborative team player, willing to mentor others and contribute to team success
This is a fantastic opportunity for a senior BA who thrives on problem-solving, digging into detail, and working with a diverse range of stakeholders to ensure readiness for a major system transition. If you're driven by meaningful transformation and have a background in finance and systems analysis, we'd love to hear from you.
