Jumar is expanding their Business Analysis capability; and we're recruiting for a well rounded and seasoned Business Analyst with proven, recent IBM Master Data Management experience to work onsite for our leading, Midlands based financial services client.

This is a superb opportunity to join the Jumar BA practice - working for Jumar as part of our EOD model (Experts on Demand) - and working onsite with our FS client in Warwickshire as part of their Master Data Management team within Customer Applications and Data.

You will need experience working with these tools to elicit requirements which support the new MDM implementation which will consolidate customer and contact data from different systems, standardize and enrich data prior to match and merge and create of a golden record for each contact.

The BA will work as part of a team, working agile refining user stories within an Epic and Feature backlog with other BAs, working alongside IBM. Alongside strong functional knowledge of the tool the BA will ideally have experience working in a complex data estate with new and legacy policy administration systems and the golden record feeding reporting tools.
