• Translate business requirements and decisions into clear, usable specifications for internal and external stakeholders.
• Document workflows and processes, and keep documentation up to date as the business evolves.

What We’re Looking For

Required

• Solid experience as a systems/ business analyst, ideally within payments or financial services.
• Strong understanding of financial processes and terminology.
• Excellent stakeholder management skills. You will have to be comfortable running interviews and workshops with people across all levels of the business.

• Hands-on experience with card acquiring
• Experience running gap analysis for new systems or process/decision changes.
