The Role

We are looking for a Business Analyst to join our Digital team, with a focus on supporting and improving our use of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

The role is central to ensuring our finance systems are robust, efficient, and fully integrated with Salesforce and our internal Project and Inventory Management System (DIAS, built on Microsoft Power Apps).

From documenting workflows and governance, to writing user stories, managing QA testing, and supporting Finance at month-end, you will play a key role in ensuring Business Central underpins effective financial management.

You will also help Finance adopt more efficient ways of working, providing training and guidance on system changes and coordinating smooth rollouts.

As a Business Analyst at Climate Impact Partners, you'll ensure our finance and inventory systems deliver the accuracy and efficiency clients rely on. This work is essential to enabling their sustainability and ESG commitments, and to our wider mission of reducing 1 billion tCO e, improving lives, and restoring a thriving planet.
