Mott MacDonald’s support services are the driving force behind our organisation enabling us to run efficiently and effectively. The team works collaboratively to offer specialist advice, best practise and technology to all areas of our business specifically designed for our global reach.

We are looking for a graduate business analyst to shape and explore strategic opportunities and solutions for capability investment. Capability is defined as the people, processes and systems required to support our diverse organisation. You will ideally have an educational background that has covered business development and strategy and you will also have an aptitude for, and interest in, information technology. You will need an excellent analytical ability and excellent skills in written communication and engagement (summarising analysis into papers and making presentations are a key part of this role). Please note that this is a strategic business analysis role that will provide exposure to many different functions within the business. While IT knowledge is beneficial, and there will be some exposure to IT systems, this role does not sit within the IT department and should be considered a broader business role.

• Create project briefs to outline the approach that will be taken to a piece of analysis.

• Conduct data analysis as and when required in order to answer a business question or to provide the business with information to support decision-making.
• Work with stakeholders to elicit high-level requirements for new tools or systems, and capture business needs. Compare the "as-is" and "to-be" positions and define user and functional requirements as needed.
• Carry out risk assessments relating to new or existing tools or systems.
• Contribute to the development of business cases for project work that may arise from the analysis.
• Assist with project administration tasks as and when required.
