Job Description

Strategic Initiatives Business Analyst / Product Owner

Stamford, CT (Hybrid)
9-Month Contract
$60-$70/hour W2 only

Drive Transformation. Influence Strategy. Deliver Impact.

Are you a Business Analyst who enjoys working at the intersection of strategy, product, and execution? Do you thrive in fast-paced environments where you can influence key business decisions and help shape the future of digital customer experiences?
We're partnering with a leading Fortune 500 organization seeking a Strategic Initiatives Business Analyst / Product Owner to support critical growth and transformation initiatives within a rapidly evolving digital commerce organization. This is a high-visibility opportunity to work directly with senior leadership and drive initiatives that impact customer acquisition, digital sales performance, and overall business growth.

What You'll Be Doing

As a trusted partner to executive leadership, you'll help transform strategic ideas into actionable plans and measurable business results by:
  • Leading business analysis efforts for strategic, enterprise-wide initiatives
  • Translating business objectives into requirements, roadmaps, and execution plans
  • Gathering, documenting, and prioritizing business and product requirements
  • Creating user stories, managing backlogs, and supporting Agile delivery teams
  • Identifying risks, dependencies, and readiness concerns across programs
  • Developing business cases and executive-ready recommendations
  • Establishing and tracking KPIs to measure initiative success
  • Collaborating with Product, UX, Technology, Sales, Marketing, Operations, and Customer Experience teams
  • Driving alignment among stakeholders and influencing decisions across a matrixed organization
  • Supporting digital commerce and customer experience transformation initiatives

What We're Looking For

Required Experience

  • 5+ years of experience in Business Analysis, Product Ownership, Product Management, Strategy, Consulting, or a related field
  • Strong business analysis and requirements gathering expertise
  • Product Owner or Product Management experience
  • Experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives
  • Agile and Scrum experience
  • Hands-on experience with Jira and user story creation
  • Exceptional stakeholder management and communication skills
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
  • Ability to influence teams and leaders without direct authority
  • Experience presenting insights and recommendations to executive audiences

Preferred Experience

  • Digital commerce/eCommerce environment
  • Telecommunications or technology industry experience
  • Subscription-based business models
  • Digital sales, self-service, or customer acquisition initiatives
  • Product Owner certification
  • Data visualization and analytics tools
  • Large enterprise or matrixed organization experience
  • Experience supporting integrations, partnerships, or transformation initiatives

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Partner directly with executive leadership and strategic decision-makers
Work on highly visible initiatives that impact millions of customers
Influence digital commerce, customer experience, and growth strategies
Gain exposure to enterprise-wide transformation programs
Join a collaborative, innovative team during a critical period of growth

Work Environment

This role operates in a dynamic, fast-moving environment where strategic thinking and execution are equally important. You'll work closely with leaders across multiple business functions and help shape initiatives that drive measurable business outcomes.
