Overview
Our newly formed Business System team are looking for a Junior Business Analyst to join them. This role will support, maintain, and develop the business systems, processes, and information upon which the Foundation relies. As our primary business system is Salesforce, this role offers a brilliant opportunity to become a Salesforce expert from a user perspective, to gain an advanced insight into system development, as well as to interact with our other business systems.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a self-starter with a real passion and flair for process to join the Foundation. The successful candidate will work alongside the Business Process Analyst and will take on a key role as the interface between the Foundation’s business areas, including our Impact on Urban Health, NHS Charities, Endowment, and Impact Investment teams, and the technical arm of the Business Systems team.
The terrific thing about this role is that it is all about enabling people to do rewarding work well!
