Senior Business Analyst, Studios

The Senior Business Analyst will establish and maintain a programme-level, source-traceable baseline by consolidating information from email, Teams and meeting records, Jira/Confluence, action and decision logs, design submissions, workshops and third-party inputs. The role connects business needs to technical, property, operational and delivery workstreams, translating complexity into decision-ready outputs. It provides constructive challenge without replacing the responsibilities of technical SMEs, architects or delivery owners.

• Coordinate inputs and follow-up from the regular Project IT/AV/Security forum, including MiX and relevant TKO, IMG, property, engineering and specialist supplier representatives.
• Translate technical and design outputs into clear business requirements, interface definitions, acceptance criteria, ownership questions, operational impacts and decision papers.
• Support definition of operational ownership, monitoring responsibilities, escalation routes, support processes, service levels and handover evidence for building and technology services.
• Support scope, budget, lead-time and delivery-impact analysis where technical, property or operational decisions affect programme sequencing and readiness.
• Bring ownership and decision gaps to the right people early, follow through on actions and escalate where unresolved issues threaten scope, cost, schedule or readiness.
• Establish a consolidated, validated and traceable project baseline that the project team can maintain after the initial BA engagement.
• Ensure Broadcast and Corporate requirements, processes, journeys and shared dependencies are clearly understood, and that interfaces, hand-offs, ownership gaps, assumptions and unresolved decisions are visible and assigned or escalated.

• Ability to distinguish confirmed facts, working assumptions, decisions, risks, issues, dependencies and recommendations, and to challenge constructively when evidence or ownership is unclear.
• Experience working within multi-party delivery and design-assurance models involving internal teams, consultants, integrators, suppliers and client-side stakeholders.
• Strong analytical writing and presentation skills, with the ability to turn complex information into concise outputs for senior stakeholders and delivery teams.
