Business Process Analyst

This is a really exciting opportunity to build new, and enhance existing, finance systems and processes at the University, working alongside colleagues in our Digital Data and Technology Group (DDAT) as well as senior leaders. 

Experience of working with large business information systems is essential, and whilst knowledge of Unit4 ERP (Agresso Business World) and SITS (Tribal) would be advantageous it’s also a great opportunity for someone to learn a new system and contribute to identifying areas of improvement.  

In this role you will be involved in: 

• Working with business experts and other key stakeholders to analyse the needs of the University 
• Creating and reviewing all project documents 
• Designing system & process solutions 
• Implementing approved process improvements and system developments 
• User Acceptance Testing 
• Developing documentation and delivering training to end users 
• Providing significant second tier support for the current systems and processes 

You will need: 

• Proven project management skills  
• Experience of working at all stages of a project life cycle; from gathering requirements, business process analysis, system design, configuration and testing through to implementation, end user training transition to operational service. 
• A good working knowledge of accounting principles and processes  
• Practical experience of change management. 
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills will be essential.  
• Systems design configuration experience   

The Process Change Team is a small supportive team of Business Process Analysts and Finance System Support Analysts, which is part of the Finance and Procurement Office. We work closely together and with key colleagues in (DDAT) to both develop and support our finance systems and processes.  

We are based in the Virgil Building in the centre of Bath and there may be a requirement to work on the main campus at times. 

We operate a flexi-time policy and are currently trialling hybrid working. Hybrid working is one of the many ways we recognise the importance of achieving a positive work life balance. Whilst the exact days you can work remotely will differ between teams and departments, it should provide you with greater flexibility, provided you are in the UK.
