What you’ll do in your role 

All our roles at BTS are asked to do three things - develop client relationships, design solutions and deliver our programmes.  Within the Strategy & Business Modelling team, the business analyst role however, focuses predominantly on design and delivery.

You’ll focus on conducting research and handling client data.  You’ll do this, working within a small internal team, to partner with leaders from some of the world’s leading corporations - Global 100 and 500 companies. You’ll learn how their business works and what their strategies are.  You’ll use this information to conceptualise and model the relevant strategic aspects in simulations used in our client solutions.  Each simulation is built from scratch and is entirely bespoke to fit the needs of our clients.  

You’ll also present the concept to the client, participate in project management and then delivery of the simulation with the client participants.

Variety is key in all our roles.  You’ll work on multiple projects at one time, across different industries, and with different internal teams. You’ll travel when you’re delivering a programme which comes out to approximately 50-60% of the time. And this is all done in a team-based setting where our entrepreneurial culture of freedom and responsibility empowers you to contribute from your first day.

What we're looking for 

You’ve got a skill set that allows you to jump from being highly analytical one minute, to creative and innovative with facilitation ideas the next, and you know how to have fun with colleagues and clients as you go.

You’ll be highly analytical in nature – a degree in science, technology, engineering and mathematic subjects are ideal. You’re also a bit of a terrier when it comes to research and seeking answers - you don’t want any answer, you’ll persevere until you’ve got ‘the’ answer.  

You have some understanding of economic and external forces at work within the business world. 

You’re able to summarise and distil complex concepts and communicate these with clarity.  An ability to present credibly to a large room is a plus.

You can work at pace and are happy working within a small internal team liaising directly with client.  You are able to focus for hours at a time, sometimes on your own, completing the business modelling required for our simulations.  

That’s just the design piece. For delivery you’ll also be able to communicate effectively with everyone you meet.  You’ll be able to communicate everything you know in lay terms and bring people with you in your enthusiasm.  You'll be skilled in leveraging a variety of communication channels. A desire and ability to present to a room that might have 200+ smart, eager people in it is a plus.  

You will be based in one of our offices (i.e. Amsterdam, London, Paris or Stockholm) and will be willing to travel internationally occasionally to present your work.
