The opportunity You’ll join an established FS AI product vendor building enterprise technology for major financial institutions.

The role offers significant exposure to complex banking environments, senior stakeholders and sophisticated software implementations, with the opportunity to work at the intersection of Financial Services, enterprise technology and AI.

It’s a strong opportunity for an experienced FS Business Analyst who enjoys owning the requirements and solution-design process rather than operating purely as a documentation-focused BA.
