Job description
Business Analyst
Knutsford
As a Barclays Business Analyst, you will have the opportunity to gain exposure to all aspects of the role and taster of what it is like working within Change Management. Within this role, you will take prime responsibility, working and collaborating with the Project/Programme Manager and stakeholders to identify, quantify, plan, and control all business analysis related activity on a business change project/programme from initial scoping, requirements gathering, through to operational design and support of implementation activities.

We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.
We are currently in the early stages of implementing a hybrid working environment, which means that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office, depending on the nature of the role they are in.

Depending on your team, typically this means that colleagues spend a minimum of between 20% to 60% of their time in the office, which could be over a week, a month, or a quarter. However, some colleagues may choose to spend more time in the office over a typical period than their role type requires. We also have a flexible working process where, subject to business needs, all colleagues globally can request work patterns to reflect their personal circumstances. Please discuss the detail of the working pattern options for the role with the hiring manager.
