Technical Business Analyst

Technical Business Analyst – London | Transformation Office | Investment Management

Our client are looking for a Technical Business Analyst to join their Transformation Office and play a key role in delivering a complex portfolio of investment management change initiatives.

This is a high-impact, internal-customer-facing role sitting at the intersection of business, product, and technology. You’ll combine structured analysis, technical curiosity, and delivery ownership to shape and implement meaningful change across front, middle, and back-office functions.

You’ll work closely with business stakeholders, Data & Technology teams, and external vendors — operating semi-independently while driving clarity, accountability, and progress across multiple workstreams.

What You’ll Be Doing

Strategic & Delivery Leadership

• Lead one or more workstreams within a complex, global transformation programme across the full SDLC
• Manage vendor relationships and ensure successful end-to-end delivery

Business Analysis & Design

• Partner with business owners to document process flows, business rules, and detailed requirements
• Produce impact assessments across teams, systems, and processes
• Apply a broad range of BA tools and techniques to drive clarity and shared understanding
• Document functional designs, sequence diagrams, and work breakdown structures
• Clearly articulate build and test requirements for technology teams

Stakeholder & Change Management

• Proactively manage stakeholder expectations around scope, risks, dependencies, and progress
• Lead and participate in testing activities: planning, scripting, execution, and defect triage
• Identify and communicate technical constraints and delivery risks
• Drive change management and adoption, including defining and tracking KPIs/OKRs post-implementation

Governance & Risk

• Ensure adherence to information security policies and processes
• Maintain compliance with local data protection regulations and privacy controls

What They’re Looking For

Experience

• 5–10 years experience as a Technical Business Analyst, Project Manager, or hybrid PM/BA in a technology or software delivery environment
• Proven experience delivering large projects through the full SDLC
• Strong Agile delivery experience
• Consultancy experience preferred

Industry Knowledge (Desirable)

• Financial Services experience (e.g., OCIO, Wealth Management, Asset Management)
• Exposure to Private Equity, Private Debt, or Hedge Funds

Technical & Analytical Skills

• Ability to query relational databases and understand programming languages (e.g., SQL, Python, Java)
• Experience building visual mock-ups (e.g., Balsamiq, Lucid, Visio)
• Strong capability in process diagrams, user stories, Gantt charts, and entity relationship diagrams
• Curious, analytical mindset with a focus on process and functional improvement

Personal Attributes

• Confident communicator across business and technical audiences
• Comfortable coordinating cross-functional teams across multiple locations
• Structured, detail-oriented, and delivery-focused
• Strong academic record preferred (Bachelor’s degree desirable but not essential)

Why This Role?

This is an opportunity to:

• Drive meaningful transformation across investment management operations
• Operate at the centre of strategic technology change
• Work closely with senior stakeholders in a collaborative, global environment
• Own delivery outcomes in a visible, high-impact role
