If you enjoy evaluating and analyzing data, creating solutions, working with a variety of people and have a good grasp of information technology, a career as a business analyst could be for you and an opportunity to work within a growing Global Brand
As a business analyst you'll work within an organisation, helping to manage, change and plan for the future in line with their goals.

- Consider opportunities and potential risks attached to suggestions you make
- Identify the processes and information technology required to introduce your recommendations
- Gain agreement, usually from senior management, of the best method of introducing your recommendations to the business
- Communicate the benefits of your recommendations across departments and help to address any uncertainty and concern
- Produce written documentation to support your work, report on your findings and to present to stakeholders when necessary
- Support staff and teams in making your recommended changes, including helping to resolve any issues
- Ensure plans are made and processes are created to evaluate the impact of the changes made, including taking responsibility for overseeing and reporting on this evaluation.
