  • Plan, coordinate and oversee UAT activity, including test preparation, execution, defect management and business sign-off.
  • Ensure business stakeholders are effectively represented throughout solution design, testing and implementation.
  • Support solution validation, business readiness and the successful adoption of change.
  • Work across multiple stakeholder groups to manage dependencies, risks and competing priorities.

Requirements

  • Proven experience as a Business Analyst within technology-led transformation or change programmes.
  • Demonstrable experience taking ownership of UAT, including planning, coordination, execution, defect management and business sign-off.
  • Previous experience within the utilities, energy or infrastructure sector.
  • Strong requirements gathering, process mapping and analytical skills.
  • Experience translating complex business requirements into clear technology deliverables.
  • Confidence working with senior business, technology, operational and third-party stakeholders.
  • Strong workshop facilitation, communication and documentation skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining an end-to-end view of business objectives, dependencies and risks.
  • Sound judgement and the ability to work effectively within complex or evolving programme environments.

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.
