About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Business Analyst to join on an initial 4-month contract (extension likely based on the analysis done in this first contract). This role will play a key part in a complex transformation initiative, focusing on building a comprehensive view of products, processes, and external market connectivity within a new legal entity structure.

* Document current workflows, system interactions, data flows, and decision logic across front-to-back operations.
* Identify key stakeholders, process owners, and organisational dependencies.
* Produce high-quality process documentation including flowcharts, swim lanes, and RACI matrices.
* Map external market connectivity (clearing houses, settlement systems, market data providers, regulatory repositories), including data requirements, message formats, and interface specifications.
* Document regulatory reporting obligations and connectivity (including EMIR and MiFID).
* Identify jurisdiction-specific infrastructure requirements and constraints.
Qualifications
* Strong Business Analysis experience within investment banking or capital markets.
* Proven track record delivering detailed BRDs and end-to-end process mapping.
* Deep understanding of trade lifecycle and front-to-back operations.
* Experience with regulatory reporting frameworks (e.g. EMIR, MiFID).
* Exposure to market connectivity, post-trade infrastructure, and data flows.
* Ability to work across complex stakeholder environments and global teams.
