  • Translate business needs into detailed functional specifications and acceptance criteria.
  • Support and document end-to-end business processes impacted by platform migration.
  • Conduct gap analysis between legacy and target-state platforms, focusing on investment account structures, pricing, fee models, and transactional workflows.
  • Work closely with the Vendor teams to validate interfaces, data mappings, and reconciliation logic.
  • Develop and execute test scenarios and test cases to validate linked product functionality, data migration accuracy, and system integrity.
  • Perform regression, UAT, and end-to-end testing across integrated systems.
  • Ensure defects are logged, tracked, and resolved efficiently.
  • Liaise with cross-functional teams including Product Development, Compliance and Operations.
  • Communicate complex system and product changes in a structured and comprehensible manner to business stakeholders.
  • Support business readiness activities, user training, and post-implementation validation.

Your Expertise:

  • Minimum 5 years' experience as a Business Analyst within a financial-services or investment-administration environment.
  • Demonstrated experience working with Linked Investment Products (LISP), Investment Platforms, or Wealth Management Systems.
  • Strong working knowledge of South African investment regulations and industry practices (FAIS, FICA, TCF, CISCA, ASISA guidelines, PDD etc.).
  • Proven involvement in platform migration, system implementation, or data-migration programmes.
  • Advanced testing ability with exposure to structured testing tools (e.g., HPQC, Jira, or similar).

Qualifications:

  • Relevant tertiary qualification in Finance, Investments, Business Analysis, or Information Systems.
