About the Company

Our client is a leading global business and technology transformation consultancy, helping major organisations design and deliver innovative digital products, services and technology solutions.

As part of a growing AI & Digital Transformation practice, they are increasingly supporting clients to identify and deliver AI and data-driven opportunities, embed automation and generative AI into digital platforms, and create more intelligent, scalable and insight-driven solutions.

The team is looking for a Technical Business Analyst Consultant to help bridge the gap between business requirements, technology, architecture and data.

This is an exciting opportunity to work on high-profile transformation programmes across a range of industries, contributing to the design and delivery of products and services that deliver measurable business value.

The Role

• Build, refine and prioritise agile backlogs for technical implementation.
• Apply an understanding of IT delivery frameworks and DevOps practices, including CI/CD.
• Work across different delivery methodologies including Scrum, SAFe and Waterfall.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to ensure technical solutions remain aligned with business objectives and user needs.
• Contribute to the wider consulting community through knowledge sharing, mentoring and capability development.

• AI copilots, automation and content or code generation.
• Data quality, pipelines and modelling concepts that underpin AI solutions.
• Working alongside Data Scientists, Data Engineers or Analytics teams.
• Using AI tools to support analysis, documentation and technical design.
• AI governance, ethics and responsible technology adoption.
