Role Overview & Mindset
As a Junior Business Analyst, you are the strategic bridge between our clients' operational realities and cloud technology. Possessing a strong client-facing mindset, you love engaging with people, driving conversations, and guiding teams through business process improvements and system changes with empathy, clarity, and simplified communication.
We seek a self-starter who is naturally curious—someone who constantly strives to understand the "why" behind a business workflow to uncover optimization opportunities, rather than just executing on the "what." You are highly coachable, welcome constructive feedback as a tool for personal growth, and thrive as an active team player in a collaborative environment.

- Software Configuration: Translate improved and validated workflows into functional system designs and configurations within the NetSuite platform.
- Testing & User Acceptance (UAT): Prepare and guide clients through User Acceptance Testing (UAT) scripts to ensure the optimized operational logic flows perfectly.
- Go-Live Involvement: Play an active role during high-stakes deployment phases (Go-Live) to ensure a smooth operational transition.
- Client Training & Enablement: Conduct engaging training sessions for client Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and end-users, creating clear documentation to solidify the new workflows.
- Post-Go-Live Support: Provide proactive functional support and hypercare to clients during the operational stabilization phase immediately following deployment.
