As a business analyst you'll be helping to manage, change and plan for the future. You'll need to identify future needs and create solutions to help meet those needs.

You'll need to demonstrate an excellent understanding of the way the organisation works and the sector it operates in, as you'll be helping the organisation to develop its functions, services and products to meet goals with internal and external stakeholders.
