Business Analyst - Brexit

About the Company

We are supporting a leading consulting firm engaged on a high‑profile programme with a global investment bank.

We are seeking an experienced Business Analyst to join on an initial 4‑month contract (extension likely based on the analysis done in this first contract). This role will play a key part in a complex transformation initiative, focusing on building a comprehensive view of products, processes, and external market connectivity within a new legal entity structure.

• Develop a comprehensive Business Requirements Document (BRD) covering all product lines, operational functions, and external connectivity, highlighting risks, dependencies, and implementation constraints.
• Map end‑to‑end processes across multiple product types, from trade inception through to settlement, and assess required changes aligned to the new legal entity.
• Document current workflows, system interactions, data flows, and decision logic across front‑to‑back operations.
• Identify key stakeholders, process owners, and organisational dependencies.
• Produce high‑quality process documentation including flowcharts, swim lanes, and RACI matrices.
• Map external market connectivity (clearing houses, settlement systems, market data providers, regulatory repositories), including data requirements, message formats, and interface specifications.
• Document regulatory reporting obligations and connectivity (including EMIR and MiFID).
• Identify jurisdiction‑specific infrastructure requirements and constraints.

• Strong Business Analysis experience within investment banking or capital markets.
• Proven track record delivering detailed BRDs and end‑to‑end process mapping.
• Deep understanding of trade lifecycle and front‑to‑back operations.
• Experience with regulatory reporting frameworks (e.g. EMIR, MiFID).
• Exposure to market connectivity, post‑trade infrastructure, and data flows.
• Ability to work across complex stakeholder environments and global teams.
