Freelance Business Analyst

Position: Vivid Resourcing - Freelance Business Analyst
For a customer in Hasselt active across Belgium, we are searching for a freelance Business Analyst who can act as a true IT Business Partner to the organisation - someone who connects business ambition with technology and helps position IT as a strategic partner to the group.

You will play a key role in strengthening how IT collaborates with the business: moving beyond defining what needs to be delivered and when, toward understanding why initiatives matter, what value they create, and how they support the Group's long-term strategy.

This role is as much about people, influence, and business insight as it is about technology therefore we are searching for someone highly motivated who can inspire. The profile does not necessarily need to be senior either!

Build strong relationships with business stakeholders across the Group

Translate business strategy, challenges, and opportunities into clear value-driven initiatives

Act as a trusted advisor who helps shape priorities—not just capture requirements

Identify opportunities where technology can enable growth, efficiency, and innovation

Help evolve the role of analysis within IT toward a more strategic and value-focused discipline

Support functional analysts to look beyond solutions and timelines toward purpose, impact, and business outcomes

Support the development of analysis practices, frameworks, and ways of working

Facilitate workshops, discovery sessions, and stakeholder conversations to uncover underlying needs and drivers

Translate business context into meaningful insights for IT teams

Challenge assumptions and solution-first thinking to ensure alignment with strategic goals

Ensure initiatives remain focused on outcomes, not only outputs

Inspiring and influencing

Motivate teams and stakeholders to adopt a broader perspective on value and impact

Strong understanding of business operations, strategy, and organisational dynamics
