Business Analyst / Business Requirement Analyst

Product

IT IS ALL ABOUT BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS

As a business analyst, you will act as a bridge between business and the development team. You gather business requirements from stakeholders and translate these into technical requirements for the development team. The goal is to fill the backlog with perfectly refined user stories to fully support the quarterly and half-yearly goals set by the product manager.

Quarterly prioritization will be set by the product owner.

This matches you as an analytical, well-organized Business Analyst. For 40 hours per week, you work in 2-week sprints, where you:

1. Translate our ambitious business plans into smart technical requirements.
2. Write and refine user stories for the development team for the upcoming quarter.
3. Find the best solutions possible that fit business needs perfectly and are technically validated, within the available capacity.
4. Be part of the delivery process to ensure requirements are met and the features are packaged for internal and external organizations.
5. Assist the product manager in strategic longer-term preparations for the next quarter.

OUR TEAM

We offer a position in the product team, an ambitious and multi-product and platform development team responsible for all product developments of Colect.io. The product is matured, but there is still a lot to improve and enhance within the dynamic B2B-commerce market.

Within the product team, you will work together with two passionate colleagues. Just like you, they enjoy working in a fast and digital environment. The team is responsible, takes ownership, and doesn’t shy away from challenges.

You will report directly to the product manager but have a very direct line with the product owner for quarterly execution goals. Besides your direct team members, you will work closely with developers, designers, and customers.

THIS IS YOU

High on energy, low on ego, and with a little bit of humor. You are also ‘one of a kind’ because of your ability to break down complex things into smaller feasible steps. You get energy from finding the best solutions possible that fit business needs perfectly and are technically validated.

In addition, you know how to communicate your findings to your stakeholders. We have some specific requirements that are a must. You have:

1. Demonstrated knowledge and experience in SaaS, PaaS, and the e-commerce landscape. For example, in a SaaS company in the fashion ecosystem or other relevant experience.
2. A good understanding or background in technology, without the need of being a programmer, for example, to be able to explain how a data model works or how to read an API.
3. Experience in gathering requirements from internal and external sources, to write user stories and requirements in a concise way that are both understood by customers and internal (technical) stakeholders.
4. Ability to write requirements in a way developers and other stakeholders can understand, with experience in user documentation and technical documentation.
5. Understanding of how a technical team is built up, including what disciplines and who to connect for work that needs to be done.
6. A good view on how a system can work (UX) and preferably having an eye for modern aesthetics. Experience in working with a design team to get concepts into mock-ups and design is also sufficient.
7. Ability to present oneself both verbally and in English writing, with professional slide presentations that convince customers and leave a lasting impression.
8. Experience in SaaS business models, understanding the need for developing features that fit all customers versus a customized product.
9. Ability to document features delivered to ensure a handover to Partners, Commercial teams, and Support, which includes:
1. Experience in writing user or admin documentation.
2. Experience with or in documentation portals such as GitBook.
3. Experience in using digital tools, which proves proficiency in Jira & Confluence (Atlassian suite), Miro & Figma or similar collaboration tools, Google Analytics, Looker Studio, and Power BI.
