Business Analyst - Barcelona

Job description

The Company

You will be joining a world-renowned International Shared Service Centre (SSC) based in Barcelona. Recognized as a premier service provider for companies across Europe, this hub hosts a diverse team of experts from over 30 different nationalities. They offer a high-energy, multicultural environment where quality standards and career growth are top priorities.

The Role

Our client is seeking a pure Business Analyst focused on requirements engineering and stakeholder alignment. This is not a hands-on report creation or data development role. Your mission is to translate complex business needs into a structured, developer-ready backlog while managing expectations across the organization.

Your Responsibilities

  • Requirements Elicitation: Lead discovery sessions with stakeholders to define project scope and core business needs.

  • User Story Mastery: Own the creation of high-quality User Stories and Acceptance Criteria in Jira/Azure DevOps.

  • Process Mapping: Document "As-Is" and "To-Be" workflows to ensure technical teams have a clear functional roadmap.

  • Stakeholder Management: Act as the primary bridge between business leadership and delivery teams, managing conflicting priorities.

  • UAT Leadership: Define testing strategies and lead User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to ensure the final solution meets the original business intent.

What You Need

  • BA Core Skills: 3+ years of dedicated experience in requirements gathering and functional documentation.

  • Documentation Focus: Proven ability to turn vague "asks" into structured, granular documentation.

  • Professional Stability: A consistent career history showing long-term commitment to projects (minimal short-term jumps).

  • Agile Expertise: Advanced proficiency in managing backlogs within Jira or Azure DevOps.

  • Communication: Fluent English with the confidence to challenge stakeholders and present to senior leadership.

What’s in it for You?

  • Salary: Competitive and aligned with your seniority.

  • Benefits: Meal vouchers and health insurance (after 6 months).

  • Flexibility: Hybrid model (3 days per week on-site) in a central Barcelona office.

  • Environment: A dynamic, international workplace with excellent career growth opportunities.
