Purpose of the Role

The Business Analyst / Product Flow Engineer is responsible for identifying, shaping, and supporting the delivery of impactful business process improvements, particularly those enabled through AI, automation, and smarter use of digital and intelligent tools. The role focuses on helping the organisation operate more efficiently and effectively—reducing manual effort, unlocking insight, and delivering seamless experiences for both staff and customers.

3. Change Support & Portfolio Contribution

• Support solution design by documenting user stories, acceptance criteria, and high-level workflows.
• Liaise with internal delivery teams and IT colleagues to align proposed changes with strategic platforms.
• Co-own the pipeline of automation and change opportunities, tracking status, impact, and dependencies.
• Provide regular updates and summaries for use in governance forums and leadership reporting.

4. RFP & Vendor Engagement

• Contribute to the preparation of RFPs for AI, automation, or process reengineering vendors.
• Assist in the evaluation of proposals, cost models, and capabilities.
• Ensure external solutions complement internal systems and long-term objectives.

5. Technology Enablement (Low-Code/No-Code)

• Where appropriate, support the use of low-code/no-code platforms, such as Microsoft Power Automate, Power Apps, or others, to prototype or enable automation solutions.
• Work with IT and platform owners to ensure governance, security, and sustainability of any developed flows or business logic.
• Contribute to documentation and transition activities for flows and automations that move into ongoing support.

Scope of Responsibility

• Business analysis and improvement support across all departments.
• Contribution to the change initiative pipeline and project prioritisation.
• Shaping of automation and AI use cases, grounded in practical system knowledge.
• Occasional hands-on support for enabling technology (e.g. mapping automation flows or identifying integration points).
