Agile Business Analyst

We offer a flexible working environment in any NatureScot office or through home and hybrid working arrangements, with a salary of £38,616 (pay award pending effect from 1 April 2025). We are looking for an experienced, positive, and pragmatic business analyst to join our multidisciplinary agile team as we transform some of our species licensing services into online services. You will support us in delivering user-centric business analysis work, which will initially involve supporting our online license application service by understanding and transforming NatureScot’s business needs into technical solutions that comply with Digital Scotland Service Standards (DSSS) and gov.uk standards. As part of our commitment to employee wellbeing and satisfaction, we provide a robust benefits package, which includes the civil service pension scheme, generous holiday leave allowance with flexi time, cycle to work and electric vehicle salary sacrifice schemes, access to an employee assistance programme, and tailored learning and development opportunities. We also focus on inclusion and diversity in our workplace culture. A driving license or other means of transport is required, as well as eligibility to live and work in the UK, residency in Scotland for the duration of the job contract, and the ability to undertake a Disclosure Scotland application. While Gaelic language skills are desirable, they are not a prerequisite. We are looking forward to finding the right candidate for this impactful role by the closing date of Monday 10 November 2025, with interviews scheduled for the week commencing 24 November 2025. As a member of NatureScot, you will also contribute to our Net Zero plan through positive carbon travel choices, whether working from home, in an office, or traveling for meetings and site visits.
