We're looking for an experienced IT Business Analyst to join a high-profile IT Transformation programme focused on driving efficiency, cost optimisation, and smarter software usage across the enterprise.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on discovery, enjoys digging into data, and is confident challenging the status quo to deliver meaningful change.

The Role

As a Business Analyst, you'll support analytical and administrative initiatives centred around software usage, duplication, licensing, and cost control. You'll work across technical and non-technical teams to uncover inefficiencies, improve visibility, and support better decision making.

You'll be comfortable operating in complex environments, bringing structure to ambiguity and influencing stakeholders at all levels.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead discovery activities across software usage, duplication, and optimisation
• Conduct detailed data gathering and analysis using spreadsheets and reporting tools
• Support Software Asset Management (SAM) processes and cost control initiatives
• Engage engineers, managers, and senior stakeholders to gather requirements and validate findings
• Challenge assumptions, ask the right questions, and deep dive into root causes
• Produce clear documentation, reports, and recommendations to inform transformation decisions

What We're Looking For

• Strong analytical mindset with excellent spreadsheet and data handling skills
• Experience or exposure to Software Asset Management (SAM)
• Comfortable running workshops, interviews, and stakeholder discussions
• Confident communicator who can influence and extract information from reluctant or busy stakeholders
• Naturally curious, inquisitive, and not afraid to challenge
• Able to work independently while contributing to a wider transformation team
