About the Role

As a Business Analyst within the Product Team, you will act as a critical conduit between business stakeholders (internal and external), SMEs, and our engineering & product delivery functions. Your work will underpin the design, specification, and delivery of new product capabilities - from requirements elicitation through to functional specification, stakeholder alignment, and support for development and testing.

This is a growth-oriented role for a candidate with around 1–2 years’ experience, eager to deepen their understanding of financial services tech and contribute meaningfully to a fast-growing global fintech.

Key Responsibilities

• Engage with SMEs, commercial leads, operations, compliance and other stakeholders to gather detailed business requirements (functional & non-functional).
• Document requirements clearly: business requirements documents (BRDs), user stories, acceptance criteria, process flows / models, data flows or functional specs.
• Translate business needs into actionable specifications for the engineering and product teams. This includes liaising between technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Assist in shaping product decisions and prioritisation by helping define scope, clarifying constraints, highlighting dependencies, and assessing trade-offs.
• Support the product lifecycle: from requirements gathering, through design and QA/acceptance, to rollout and post-launch validation. This may include helping coordinate testing / user acceptance testing, tracking issues/defects, and ensuring delivered functionality meets requirements.
• Help maintain and evolve internal documentation of business processes, system workflows, integration points, and product behaviour.
• Work collaboratively across cross-functional teams including Product Owners, Engineering, Compliance, Operations, and (where relevant) Banking Partners or external vendors - facilitating smooth communication and shared understanding.
• Proactively identify potential inefficiencies, ambiguities or gaps in requirements, and propose refined or improved process / product solutions.

Candidate Profile

• Communicates clearly and confidently across technical and non-technical audiences, including senior stakeholders.
• Detail-oriented with strong analytical ability and a structured approach to gathering and validating requirements.
• Proactive, self-motivated and comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments.
• Thrives in agile or hybrid product development settings and collaborates effectively with Product Owners and Engineers.
• Builds strong relationships across business, operations, compliance, product and technical functions.
• Demonstrates curiosity, growth mindset and a long-term interest in developing a career in product/fintech.
• Brings strong problem-solving skills and a collaborative, team-oriented mindset.

Preferred Background

• Bachelor’s degree (2:1 or above) or equivalent experience in a relevant field (Business, Economics, Finance, Information Systems etc.)
• 1+ year of experience in business analysis, consulting or similar roles (e.g., systems analyst, consulting analyst, junior BA).
• Experience within financial services, fintech or other regulated/structured environments is preferred.
• Familiarity with agile frameworks and tools such as Jira, Confluence or similar.
• Exposure to requirement gathering, process mapping and stakeholder engagement.
• Nice to have: Basic understanding of financial products, payments, multi-currency accounts or fintech business flows.

What success looks like

• Clear, concise and complete documentation of business requirements that enable efficient and accurate delivery by engineering teams.
• Smooth hand-off between business stakeholders and product/engineering - resulting in minimal rework or ambiguity after development begins.
• Enhanced collaboration across teams and effective stakeholder engagement.
• Proactive identification and mitigation of issues early in the lifecycle (requirements ambiguity, scope drift, conflicts).
• Continuous learning and growth: increasing contribution to more complex/strategic product work.
