Business Analyst

About the Company

At IMSERV, we're proud to be one of the UK's leading energy data and metering specialists. We deliver award-winning services to customers across the country, providing specialist metering technology for electricity, gas and water, alongside highly accurate energy data collection services.

About the Role

The purpose of the role is to work across IMSERV's Customer Experience, Data and Intelligence, and Commercial departments, translating business challenges, customer needs and operational processes into clear and actionable requirements that teams can confidently build and deliver against. The role will also support commercial bids and propositions where required, helping to develop and position IMSERV's services for new and existing clients and prospects. A key part of the role will be working closely with operational, commercial and customer-facing teams to understand their requirements, identify dependencies and recognise where changes within one department may have an impact across other areas of the business, ensuring a joined-up approach to delivery and supporting effective business outcomes.

Responsibilities

• Work with Product Director to understand and translate market needs into detailed product requirements, engaging IT, operations, commercial and customer-facing teams to draw out and challenge business processes to ensure the target outcomes can be delivered effectively, including structured stakeholder and customer interviews as needed.

• Turn agreed needs into user stories, acceptance criteria and process definitions developers can build from without guessing, with particular precision on entitlement and data rules.

• Write and maintain the platform's business-editable decision tables with operations as any rules engines comes online: versioned, tested rules that operations can change without a code release.

• Document how key business and customer processes work today, design future states with stakeholders and quantify the difference.

• Use data to size problems, validate assumptions and confirm whether shipped changes delivered the intended outcome.

• Support the product team and technical architect in discovery: customer interviews, workshops and synthesis of what came back.

• Track requirements through delivery, manage scope conversations honestly and keep stakeholders informed.
