Senior business analyst - contract

Senior Business Analyst — Contract

Remote with occasional UK travel. 3‑month contract. Daily rate. 37 hours per week.

This is a contract BA role with real purpose behind it.

Our client is a well‑established, mission‑driven organisation operating a digital platform that makes a direct difference to the people it serves. They are midway through a significant transformation programme and need an experienced Senior BA to help shape how that platform evolves.

The brief is clear: gather requirements, define user journeys, and translate what the business needs into specifications the technical team can actually build from. It is a hands‑on engagement. You will be running workshops, mapping processes, writing user stories, and sitting at the intersection of business and delivery.

What the role involves

• Capturing business requirements and turning them into clear user stories and functional specs
• Running workshops and engaging stakeholders across business and technical teams
• Mapping user journeys and defining UX requirements to guide platform design
• Analysing platform capabilities and identifying where improvements are needed
• Documenting processes, data flows, and integration points to a high standard
• Supporting backlog refinement within an agile delivery environment

What you need

• Solid experience as a Senior Business Analyst on digital delivery or transformation programmes
• Proven ability to bridge business and technical teams — you write for developers, not just stakeholders
• A track record of improving digital customer journeys or contact‑centre services
• Good working knowledge of APIs, data flows, and system integrations
• Strong documentation skills and the confidence to run workshops and manage stakeholder relationships
• Familiarity with agile practices

Useful, not essential: experience in customer‑facing financial or public‑benefit services.

The detail

3‑month contract. Daily rate. 37 hours per week. Remote‑first with occasional travel to UK offices.
