Job description
Want to do the best work of your life? Playing your part in making a big difference to the environment and communities we serve. Our people make Severn Trent a truly exciting and inclusive place to work – a place where you can be yourself and let your skills shine.
Our purpose is taking care of life’s essentials, but we’re also big on making a difference, not just because we should but because we care.
Projects in Severn Trent are something else. We work in an environment which moves all of the time so we have a varied and exciting portfolio of programmes that aim to move and adapt our business to support Severn Trent’s strategic ambitions and deliver for our customers, as these are at the heart of everything we do.
We have an exciting opportunity for a Business Analyst to join our Waste Networks business to help work and ensure our projects are staying on track. In this role you will work across the business, with both internal and external stakeholders, to build robust business cases for go/no go decisions on transformational activity.
In this role you will be looking to complete structured analysis, gather business requirements/opportunities, model different solutions and create compelling business cases. You will also work with your team and others to support project prioritisation. You will plan for and deliver performance reporting activities to our key stakeholders to ensure they are both bought into our direction of travel but also understand what we are doing.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
In this role you will lead the development and planning, while supporting the delivery of projects and continuous improvement activities that will support our ambitions and deliver for our customers. We will want you to be curious, so when analysing data and processes, you will perform root-cause analysis, which will influence decisions. The knock on of this will be that you create compelling business cases and support project prioritisation, planning and performance reporting activities.
You will build strong links across the specific business areas you are working with, to ensure that business requirements / opportunities are identified, captured and included in project planning, while analysing the core business processes. You will facilitate focused and concise design meetings, which will help you define new process’s and run and facilitate workshops to support opportunity identification and the definition of detailed business requirements.
WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE

We want people who show up and roll their sleeves up. Restless spirits who are ready to be part of something bigger, who care, who really care... because when you really care, you’ll go above and beyond. When you really care you don’t just talk about it, you do more.
As a Business Analyst with us we would be looking for you to be able to provide Structured Analysis. By this we’d want you to analyse the structure of the business area you are working with and how it uses technology, its data and processes. With this information you’ll then be able to provide detailed root-cause analysis and turn outputs into opportunities. We’ll also look for you to be able to define detailed business requirements in your specific projects and identify opportunities. You will be working in collaboration with the wider business, together you will resolve any conflict between requirements, while developing feasibility reports and supporting the delivery of these requirements.
We’ll want you have a special focus on cost & benefit Analysis on every project you do, you’ll be completing cost benefit analysis work and developing compelling business cases to ensure that there tangible benefit delivery plans in place and as you can imagine we will want you to model recommended solutions, using all of the appropriate tools and techniques which are consistent with how we work at Severn Trent.
