About The Role
FDM is a global business and technology consultancy seeking a Business Analyst with active SC to work for our client within the public sector. This is initially a 6 month contract with the potential to extend and will be a hybrid role that will be based in London.
We are looking for an experienced Business Analyst to support a major Azure cloud transformation programme. The organisation is moving away from multiple existing platforms towards a more consolidated Azure-based environment.
The Business Analyst will work across infrastructure, architecture and business teams to understand the existing landscape, gather requirements and support the transition to the new operating model. The role will have a strong focus on discovery, platform migration, cloud adoption and the business change required to embed new ways of working.
The successful candidate will need to be comfortable moving between business and technical conversations and will play an important role in ensuring the migration delivers practical business outcomes.
