The Business/Data Analyst will work across multiple product lines—Trading & Sales, Finance, Risk, Treasury, Operations, and Regulatory—to support a global regulatory program focused on data quality reporting. The ideal candidate will act as a bridge between policy, governance, tooling teams, and technical delivery groups, ensuring alignment, risk mitigation, and successful execution of data governance initiatives.

Key Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with cross-divisional project managers, technology product owners, and data office engineering teams to align goals and deliverables for global regulatory data quality reporting.

• Troubleshoot and resolve roadblocks encountered by development teams.
• Understand and familiarize yourself with Data Architecture & Management principles, BCBS 239 requirements, and the Firm’s Data Policy.
• Identify and mitigate risks, manage dependencies, and proactively resolve issues using Agile methodologies.
• Partner with the Firmwide Data Office to enhance strategic tooling for data cataloging and lineage.
• Support broader program needs with flexibility beyond core responsibilities.

Required Skills:

• Previous experience as a Business Analyst or Data Analyst, with strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively while proposing ideas and innovative concepts.
• Ability to understand technical solutions and apply them practically; must be comfortable working at the API and configuration level (not a coding role).

• Experience working with global teams across multiple locations, ideally within financial services or large consulting firms.
• Ability to explain complex ideas and deliverables simply, clearly, and persuasively.
