Overview
We're looking for a hands-on Business Analyst to help accelerate data maturity and improve confidence in how business teams engage with data. This is a delivery-facing role where you'll gather and shape requirements, co-design reports and dashboards, and support the rollout of core data capabilities like Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, and Purview.

You'll act as the link between business users and the data team, helping stakeholders explore and understand their data, while ensuring solutions are accurate, secure, and meaningful.

Key Responsibilities

Collaborate with business teams to gather, analyse, and prioritise reporting and data requirements

Facilitate workshops and meetings to understand business needs and communicate findings.

Document stakeholder requirements clearly and comprehensively to ensure alignment across business and technical teams.

Translate business needs into well-structured user stories and functional specifications

Define and maintain KPIs, business rules, and performance metrics

Trace data and functionality across systems to support root cause analysis and requirement validation

Utilise existing process maps to support the development of reporting across the business.

Design and illustrate dashboards using mock-ups and visual charts in collaboration with stakeholders to ensure clarity, alignment, and actionable insights.

Validate data accuracy and completeness across prototypes and production releases

Work with stakeholders to review and sign off on deliverables (UAT, business readiness, etc.)

Support Data Owners and Stewards to maintain high-quality metadata, definitions, and data quality rules

Champion the use of Microsoft Purview for cataloguing, lineage, and governance visibility

Assist with business enablement for Microsoft Fabric in driving confidence around data discovery and self-service use

Ensure solutions meet business needs and requirements through testing and validation.

Support end-user training and onboarding initiatives to enhance data literacy and maturity, including the creation of accessible documentation, hands-on sessions, and tailored learning resources.

Qualifications & Skills
Must-Have

Proven experience as a Business Analyst in a data-focused delivery environment

Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

Comfortable working on-site in Shannon two days per week

High proficiency in Microsoft stack (Word, PowerPoint, Excel)

Ability to work across business and technical teams, translating needs clearly and pragmatically

Experience supporting full project lifecycles - requirements, testing, go-live and post-go-live support

Nice to Have

Experience with diagramming tools such as Microsoft Visio or similar for documentation

Familiarity with Microsoft Fabric, Purview, Azure Data Factory

Exposure to data governance frameworks (e.g. DAMA, DCAM)

Awareness of Agile delivery methods (Scrum, Kanban, etc.)

Comfortable contributing to self-service BI rollouts and data enablement strategies

Why This Role Matters
This is a central role in a growing data team, working at the intersection of analytics, governance, and delivery. You won't just write requirements. You'll help shape real outcomes and see your impact in how data gets used across the organisation.
