Requirements

Must:
We are looking for an experienced Business Analyst with proven experience in application or vendor selection. Ideal candidates should have prior exposure to FMCG or consumer goods environments. A strong understanding of the product management lifecycle and related business processes is essential. Candidates should possess solid knowledge of application support, troubleshooting, and lifecycle management, along with familiarity with Windows Server and desktop environments; exposure to SQL or Oracle databases would be an advantage. We value strong communication, organization, and stakeholder management skills, as well as experience working in a matrixed, global organization and cross-functional teams. Knowledge of application architecture, roadmaps, and best practice principles is required, along with the ability to identify and deliver business process improvements through technology. Excellent planning, problem-solving, and analytical skills are necessary. Experience with Agile, Kanban, or project management methodologies is beneficial but not essential. A proactive, curious, and collaborative approach, with a willingness to learn and grow within a global IT environment, is highly desirable.

Responsibilities

In this role, you will gather and document detailed business requirements for selecting and configuring a new product management application. You will map current and future-state processes across the product management lifecycle to support application selection and implementation. Providing IT input into the RFP process is key, as you will work closely with procurement, internal stakeholders, and vendors to ensure alignment and governance. You'll coordinate workshops, RFP demos, scoring sessions, and stakeholder reviews to drive alignment across global markets. Additionally, you will develop and present a clear business case outlining ROI, benefits, and the recommended approach for approval. Supporting testing and training activities, you will ensure new applications and changes are adopted smoothly. You’ll log, track, and escalate issues with third-party vendors and internal teams, maintain documentation, and contribute to regular service and performance reviews. Your support will extend to the full lifecycle roadmap for all critical non-SAP applications across global teams. You will analyze proposed changes to assess their impact, feasibility, and priority. Translating business requirements into functional specifications to ensure global applications are updated accurately will be a critical part of your responsibilities. You will assist in change and release management, ensuring deployments are well planned and communicated, and troubleshoot application issues when needed, working with third-party vendors to ensure timely resolution.

Description


This is a fantastic opportunity for you to play a pivotal role in a global product management transformation, influencing technology decisions that will shape business processes for years to come. You will work closely with senior stakeholders across business and IT, helping to deliver a fit-for-purpose solution for our global Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) organization. We are offering this position at £500 per day on an outside IR35 basis, with a hybrid work setup for an initial contract of 3 months.
