Job Description
Business Analyst – Operational Resilience
Inside IR35 contract
£600 per day
London – hybrid
6 months initial – 3 year fully funded programme
Consultancy engagement supporting a major UK bank
We are supporting a consultancy partner delivering a multi-year operational resilience and regulatory change programme for a major UK bank and are hiring senior Business Analysts to join a strategic operational resilience and regulatory change programme inside a Tier 1 banking environment.
This is not a tool-specific or delivery BA role.
You will operate at service and architecture level, working alongside solution architects and platform leads to translate regulatory expectations into clear technology requirements across complex estates.
The focus is interpretation, structure and coordination – not configuration.
Key responsibilities
• interpret regulatory and operational resilience obligations and translate into technology and service requirements
• define business, functional and non-functional requirements
• map critical services, dependencies and failure scenarios
• support resilience strategy, recovery and continuity planning
• produce governance-ready documentation suitable for audit and regulators
• coordinate across architecture, engineering, risk and operations teams
• work closely with solution architects to shape high-level designs
Environment exposure includes
• observability and monitoring platforms such as Dynatrace and Splunk
• ITSM workflows in ServiceNow
• multi-cloud and distributed infrastructure
We are looking for
• strong banking or financial services pedigree – essential
• experience on operational resilience, regulatory or continuity programmes
• broad technical literacy across infrastructure, platforms and architecture
• comfortable working at conceptual and service design level rather than deep tool configuration
• strong stakeholder management across technology, risk and compliance
• clear, structured documentation skills
This is a strategic role on a long-term, fully funded programme with strong extension potential.
If you have delivered resilience or regulatory change within a bank and can translate regulation into practical technology outcomes, please get in touch.
