Business Analyst - UK Payments Transformation

London (flexible) Contract or Permanent

Our client is looking for experienced Business Analysts to join a major UK payments transformation programme, working across critical domestic and international payment systems.

This is a hands-on role in a fast-moving environment, ideal for BAs who understand how payments actually work in production-not just on paper.

What you'll be doing

• Analyse and map current vs target payment flows across multiple schemes
• Support migration and transformation activities, including system integration
• Work closely with architecture and engineering teams to translate business needs into delivery
• Document actual vs intended system behaviour, identifying gaps and risks
• Engage with stakeholders across payments, operations, and technology
• Help drive clarity and alignment in complex, ambiguous environments

What we're looking for

• Strong experience across UK payments schemes, including:
• BACS (essential)
• Faster Payments
• SWIFT (as part of a broader profile, not standalone)
• Current Account Switching Service (desirable)
• Proven experience supporting payments migration or transformation programmes
• Ability to bridge business and technical teams, interpreting complex payment flows
• Strong skills in:
• Data and process mapping
• Gap analysis and risk identification
• Working within legacy constraints and live environments

What sets you apart

• You focus on practical delivery, not theory
• You're comfortable working in fast-paced, evolving programmes
• You proactively identify issues and drive them to resolution
• You can operate independently with minimal direction

Why join

• Work on a high-impact payments programme within a leading financial environment
• Be part of a team solving real-world, complex banking challenges
• Flexible working with a preference for London presence, but not mandatory

If you've got strong UK payments experience and enjoy working at the intersection of business, technology, and delivery, we'd love to hear from you.
