Are you an experienced Business Analyst with a passion for improving systems, shaping future solutions and delivering meaningful change?
Blue Cross is embarking on an exciting project to review and replace its Practice Management System (PMS), the technology that supports our veterinary hospitals and clinical services. We're looking for an experienced Business Analyst to help us understand our current processes, identify future requirements and support the selection of a new system that meets the needs of our organisation for years to come.
This is a unique opportunity to lead a significant discovery and procurement project, working across veterinary, clinical, operational and support functions to help shape the future of service delivery at Blue Cross.
We are recruiting one Business Analyst who can be based from either our Burford or London office. While you may see this opportunity advertised in multiple locations, this is a single 12-month fixed-term role supporting our Practice Management System replacement project.
More about the role
As the PMS Business Analyst, you will lead the discovery phase of our Practice Management System replacement project.
You'll work closely with stakeholders across the organisation to understand how our current systems and processes support service delivery, where opportunities exist for improvement and what capabilities we require from a future solution.
You'll develop a clear picture of business needs across multiple functions, evaluate available options in the marketplace and support the procurement and tender process to help identify the best solution for Blue Cross.
Your work will provide the foundations for one of the organisation's most significant technology investments and will directly influence how we support pets, owners and colleagues in the future.
What you will be doing
About you:
You'll be an experienced Business Analyst who enjoys understanding how organisations work and helping them make informed decisions about technology and change.
You will have a strong track record of leading discovery and requirements gathering activities, with the ability to engage confidently with a wide range of stakeholders. You'll be comfortable analysing complex information, identifying opportunities for improvement and translating business needs into clear and structured requirements.
We're particularly interested in candidates who have worked on system selection, procurement or transformation projects and who can balance operational realities with long-term strategic needs.
Experience of working within veterinary, healthcare, clinical or other service-focused environments would be advantageous, although not essential.
