What Youll Do

In a world where data is critical to BCGs success, we are building first-class, foundational capabilities and products across the firm. Within this vision, LEAP is delivering BCGs new Learning platform to power the firms learning and development needs. 

Initially, you’ll work within the Data Product squad to build a custom data product in Snowflake as part of a broader transformation program of BCG’s learning technology. The data product will help enable AI-driven learning and make learning data accessible to other teams and systems, including, for example, staffing and analytics. When the program has ended, you’ll be part of a Learning squad with RtB  as its scope. 

Your key responsibilities will include: 

• Develop well-structured Agile user stories and acceptance criteria that enable effective solution delivery, and owning your area of backlog 

• Analyze processes and data needs, contributing to solution design and identifying practical approaches to business problems. 

• Coordinate functional, integration, performance, and user acceptance testing to ensure solutions meet business requirements. 

• Support release readiness and implementation, identifying issues and working with technical teams to resolve them. 

• Elicit, document, and validate requirements by engaging multiple stakeholder groups and subject matter experts. 

• Write clear, well-structured user stories and acceptance criteria understandable by both technical and functional colleagues. 

• Create, update, and maintain requirements documentation (e.g., PRDs / functional specifications). 

• Communicate clearly with stakeholders at all levels, anticipating questions and translating technical details into plain language. 

• Manage and triage support requests in a query management system (e.g., ServiceNow). 

• Proactively flag risks and dependencies, keeping learner impact and business value as the priority. 

What Youll Bring

Education 

• Bachelors degree required. 

• 5–8 years of experience as a business / systems analyst, ideally supporting or configuring enterprise applications. 

Experience / Knowledge 

• A bachelor’s degree and 5-7 years of experience with Learning or HR applications. 

• Experience with learning management or experience platforms; Docebo experience is strongly preferred. 

• Experience with data products, third-party platforms, and SaaS technology solutions. 

• Working technical fluency with Snowflake, querying databases, and querying APIs to understand and validate data. 

• Strong Agile experience, including writing user stories and working with Jira, sprints, and ceremonies. 

• Experience developing and executing functional, integration, performance, and user acceptance testing. 

• Experience using AI tools to improve the quality and efficiency of your work. 

Who Youll Work With

The Business Analyst is a role within the Data Product Squad, part of LEAP in BCGs digital products organisation. Reporting to the IT Director, you will work day-to-day with your Product Owner, Chapter Leads, Scrum Master, and squad members, as well as functional business partners, subject matter experts, and IT colleagues. You will collaborate closely with stakeholders across the business to analyse, configure, and evolve BCGs new Learning platform, supporting both day-to-day operations and transformative change.
