You will operate with autonomy, while collaborating closely with Architects, Engineering Managers, Agile Delivery Leads, and technical teams to ensure our data solutions – from complex transformation logic to final reporting – meet the strategic needs of the business.
In this role, you will balance this strategic delivery with a responsibility to coach and mentor our more junior team members, helping to elevate the capability of the wider team. You will thrive in a fast-paced Agile environment, leading the analysis for complex initiatives, working collaboratively with technical teams, alongside Agile Delivery Leads and Engineering Managers, to ensure value is delivered efficiently.

- Collaborate on the requirements lifecycle, driving elicitation, analysis, and documentation within your designated focus area (Pre-Delivery or Delivery).
- Create Business Process Models and Data Models (e.g. Entity Relationship Diagrams), collaborating with Data Information Architecture to visualise workflows and data structures.
- Take responsibility for the Line Management of Business Analysts within your domain, including 1-to-1s and conducting performance reviews.
- Mentor and coach junior colleagues, sharing knowledge and helping to develop the capability of the wider team.
- Help lead and shape the Jet2 Business Analysis Community of Practice, sharing knowledge and helping evolve our analysis standards across the business.

Depending on business assignment, the Senior Business Analyst will specialise in one of the following focus areas:
- Partner closely with Product Managers, Business Stakeholders, and Architects to break down complex portfolio epics and strategic initiatives into smaller, iterative value drops.
- Champion the translation of high-level business concepts into robust functional and non-functional requirements, ensuring clarity and business context before technical design begins.
- Lead '3-amigos' and 'Refinement' ceremonies, acting as the bridge between business requirements and technical execution.
Significant experience as a Business Analyst, capable of working autonomously on complex data initiatives with challenging timelines. Experience in mentoring, coaching, and developing colleagues. A proven ability to handle initiatives involving multiple data sources and defining complex data transformation logic. Strong understanding of the Data Life Cycle and an appreciation of the intrinsic business value of data. Experience working alongside a development team within a fast-paced Agile environment, managing competing workloads, and prioritising appropriately. Hands-on experience creating Business Process Models (e.g. UML Activity Diagrams, BPMN).
