IT & Software Business Analyst - Salesforce Implementation
Leeds plus WFH
A large-scale professional services organisation in Leeds is urgently seeking a new IT & Software Business Analyst to join their team on a contract basis. They are going through a significant IT transformation programme - implementing Salesforce and a number of other new business applications to change the way they work and deliver to customers.
This is a hybrid role with a mix of office working and extensive home working options.
As the successful candidate you must have:
- A strong track record as a Business Analyst, focused on software / applications delivery & integration. Ideally 5+ years
- The ability and gravitas to own the the whole BA process and take the lead within large scale CRM/ERP implementation/integration projects (Budgets £500k+)
- Experience of the full life cycle as a BA - from requirements gathering to the testing phases of software projects
- You must have experience of working as a BA end to end through a project lifecycle
- Business Change experience
- Experience of managing/designing the test phase is also essential
- Experience of Waterfall and Agile methodologies
- Experience of Salesforce integration projects would be an advantage, but not essential
- Any experience of ERP or off-the-shelf (COTS) software would also be valued
- Experience of working in a large, complex organisation would be an advantage
- Be an excellent communicator who can deal with both technical and non-technical challenging stakeholders
The client would like a candidate who is flexible and adaptable to pick up responsibilities which might not ordinarily be part of a pure BA role e.g. change management / training / Project management / product ownership etc. Someone who can pick up a problem or a task and run with it without too much hand holding.
The role is initially a 6 month contract position but there is also the opportunity to convert to perm if you wish.
This is an excellent role and I have interview slots available and ready to be filled. So do apply ASAP to be considered if you have the required skills and experience.
