We’re changing it up

We’re on a mission to build the UK’s finest digital infrastructure and unleash Britain’s potential. Together, we’re achieving incredible things. We may have big ambitions, but we never lose sight of what matters. That’s why we’ve created an open, inclusive environment where people can be themselves, where wellbeing and mental health come first, where we take a flexible approach to working, and where everyone has the chance to pursue their passions, keep learning and grow their careers. We’re changing up Britain and we’re changing up the workplace with better rewards, more opportunities to grow and the chance to make a difference to communities across the UK. 

A rewarding career

We’re passionate about our work and we’re passionate about our people too. With a salary of up to £50,328 depending on experience, when you join the CityFibre family you’ll also enjoy benefits like 25 days’ holiday, a day off on your birthday, a day off to support a charity or organisation of your choice, performance-related bonus scheme, and private healthcare.

How can you change it up?

As a business analyst you will be the guardian of products involving the Software Development department. Collaborating with the entire development team, you will be ensuring that products are delivered successfully, within the Agile framework. You will be taking business requirements, prioritizing them according to the business’s needs and then translating them into testable features to be worked on by the development team.

You will be working closely with the Scrum Master to guarantee that the development team provides the product solution required in regular, iterative cycles and communicates progress to the business and, where applicable, to external clients clearly and consistently. Some of your other responsibilities will include:

• Leading stakeholder engagement 
• Facilitating technical workshops and training sessions alongside the Scrum Master 
• Maintaining product literature and documentation within Confluence 
• Empowering the development team to deliver the required product solution 
• Communicating progress to key stakeholders and external clients, where appropriate 
• Evangelising Lean principles and Agile software development methodology throughout the business

What will you bring to the role?

We are looking for a self-motivating and customer-orientated individual with at least two years' experience working with an agile software delivery team. It is essential that you can demonstrate a solid understanding of Test-Driven Development and Behaviour Driven Development. You will also be required to be able to facilitate Value Stream Mapping sessions as well as create BPMN documentation.  It is also essential that you have experience with Kanban frameworks. 

For this role, you will need to absorb new ideas and concepts quickly, as well as present ideas clearly to the rest of the team. We are looking a highly organised person for this role as you will need to be able to effectively prioritise your work whilst still executing tasks under pressure. It is also crucial that you have:

• 10 GCSE graded A*- C 
• 3 A-levels or equivalent, preferably a bachelor's degree as well (1st or 2:1 )  
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills 
• Presentation skills 
• Good attention to detail 
• Good analytical and problem-solving abilities  

It will also be ideal if you are knowledgeable in the following areas:

• The telecommunications industry
• SQL
• Salesforce
• Jira
• Confluence

If you also have a driving license, that will also be a benefit!
