  • Ensure requirements are articulated in a manner that is suitable for the intended audience, ensuring clarity, precision, and feasibility for implementation and testing.
  • Navigate ambiguity within the project team, IT staff, and business sponsors, establishing structure to requirements to efficiently define detailed requirements.
  • Work with project managers and business stakeholders to define requirements stakeholders, conflict resolution processes, and team structure.
  • Possess an understanding of various complex project management methodologies/software development approaches and delineate appropriate deliverables through project phases (planning, analysis, specification, and validation).
  • Demonstrate proficiency in facilitating requirement meetings, with experience leading sessions of 10 to 20 participants to define scope and requirements throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Ensure adherence to change control and management procedures within the project team as they pertain to requirements.
  • Analyze and document the business case and project scope.
  • Maintain high standards of business analysis quality through the effective application of approved processes, best practices, methodologies, and deliverables.
  • Mentor junior staff in business analysis methodologies, techniques, and best practices.
  • Stay informed of industry trends through continuous learning via trade publications and seminars.

Qualifications:

  • Proven experience in conducting thorough research and analysis.
  • Solid background in facilitating, gathering, and documenting requirements while collaborating with project developers.
  • Strong expertise in writing Use Cases.
  • Familiarity with MS SharePoint 2010 or 2013 is advantageous.
  • Experience with system development life cycle methodologies for application development is essential.
  • Knowledge of the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge (BABoK) is required.
  • Certification as a Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) or PMI-PBA credential is preferred.

Education and Experience:
