  • Use AI tools to accelerate analysis, discovery, documentation and knowledge capture, applying appropriate judgement to validate outputs.
  • Translate business needs into clear requirements, business rules, user stories and acceptance criteria.
  • Facilitate workshops and collaborate with Finance, Data and Technology stakeholders to resolve ambiguity and reach agreed outcomes.
  • Support delivery by validating data products, calculations and reporting capabilities against agreed requirements.

  • Experience in business analysis, data analysis or a similar analytical role.
  • Experience delivering complex data, reporting, analytics or platform change initiatives.
  • Strong practical experience using SQL, Snowflake, Power BI and Excel to analyse data and understand reporting logic.
  • Ability to work directly with datasets, data models and calculations without relying solely on technical teams.
  • Practical experience using AI tools to support analysis, research, documentation and problem solving.
  • Strong requirements gathering, analysis and documentation skills.
  • Strong stakeholder engagement and workshop facilitation skills.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills, with the ability to create structure from ambiguity and challenge assumptions constructively.
  • Clear written and verbal communication across both business and technical audiences.

We Recognise Potential, Whoever You Are

Our purpose is to deliver excellent investment performance to clients through active management. We believe diverse perspectives and an inclusive culture help us make better decisions and achieve better outcomes for our clients.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
