Business Analyst III​/Remote; Denver

Remote Contractor Position

The role can be 100% remote however if a local person is selected, there may be occasions where the individual would be asked to attend in-person meetings.

The Contractor shall work closely and collaboratively with the Department's Project Management Office and the Senior Project Manager for the SLDS project to discuss suggestions or issues as they occur and incorporate suggestions or guidance from the Department while performing the work described within this Statement of Work, the purchase order, and the vendor contract.

The Contractor shall coordinate and prioritize all work to ensure that all deadlines are met.

The Contractor shall employ an internal quality control process to ensure that all deliverables are complete, accurate, easy to understand, and of high quality.

The Contractor shall provide deliverables that, at a minimum, are responsive to the specific requirements, organized into a logical order, contain no spelling or grammatical errors, formatted uniformly, and contain accurate information and correct calculations.

The Contractor shall submit each deliverable to the Project Management Office Manager and the SLDS Senior Project Manager for review and approval.

However, if a local candidate is chosen, there may be times when the contractor will be asked to come to the office for specific meetings or events. Also, they will be required to follow the same return to the office plan as the Client project team when it is implemented.

For this reason, a local candidate is preferred. However, the right candidate is crucial, so we are not limiting this role to local only. This should be discussed prior to being engaged. The Department does not pay for travel or expenses.
