DWP. Digital with Purpose.
Our DWP Digital teams are building, maintaining and improving public services used by millions of people.
We're looking for talented Business Analysts to join our growing community, with opportunities across Core Digital Services in teams such as Citizen Information and our innovative Garage team. These roles are all about shaping technical change, delivering real value, and helping improve outcomes for our users.
You'll work as part of a multidisciplinary team to build and improve technical services, translating complex business problems and user needs into clear, actionable requirements.
You'll use a range of discovery techniques-such as workshops, interviews and focus groups-to uncover insights, model business processes and identify opportunities for improvement.
Your strong stakeholder engagement will ensure both technical and nontechnical teams share a common understanding of requirements and outcomes. You may also support Product Owners in shaping backlogs and prioritising work.
Alongside delivery, you'll take ownership of your professional development, deepening your expertise in Business Analysis and Agile ways of working while contributing to and supporting the wider BA community.
What skills, knowledge and experience will you need? How will this be assessed?
You'll be invited to complete a verbal reasoning test.
If you pass the test, you'll be invited to complete both a technical statement and a personal statement. This is your opportunity to showcase clear examples and evidence of how you meet the following:
Technical Statement:
* How do your Business Analysis skills & experience align to those required of a Business Analyst in DWP Digital?
Personal Statement:
* Proven experience of performing business analysis within complex programmes or projects, delivering high quality outputs that support informed decision making.
* Demonstrable experience in eliciting, analysing and refining user and stakeholder requirements using structured techniques to ensure clarity, accuracy and alignment to business objectives.
* Evidence of applying a wide range of business analysis tools and techniques (such as process modelling, root cause analysis, user journey mapping and data analysis) to understand problems and define effective solutions.
* Proven ability to identify opportunities for improvement, assess potential impacts, and provide clear, evidence based recommendations that drive positive change.
* Practical experience of supporting change initiatives, from initial discovery and requirements gathering through to solution development, implementation and benefits realisation.
If you are successful in your application, we'll invite you to a first and final interview.
