(B2B) Transformation Business Analyst (6 Month Contract)

THE ALLSAINTS TEAM

At AllSaints we are in the business of feelings - making our customers feel cool and confident. If, like us, you believe in the power of a great outfit, we'd love to talk to you.

We're a global brand made up of a very diverse mix of talented people in a huge variety of roles. Our products are designed in house and made by a small number of suppliers and artisans around the world to sustainable standards.

We are a brand embarking on a very exciting plan and we are seeking new members of the team who want to contribute to this.

THE ROLE

As a Transformation Business Analyst on our Technology and Transformation team, you will be instrumental in supporting the technology-powered transformation program - Project Nova - at AllSaints, bridging the gap between business needs and technical solutions. You will play a crucial role in defining requirements, mapping processes, identifying process improvements and driving change across various workstreams.

This role requires a strong Business Analyst skillset, with particular experience in the ERP, Operations and Wholesale Retail space, demonstrating experience in delivering innovative technology, creating seamless processes and driving operational excellence for our teams. You will primarily be working to support our Wholesale team in migrating away to current manual sales order management processes onto an automated, centralised solution. You will ensure that business needs are accurately captured, translated, and delivered, contributing directly to Project Nova's success in making our brand and experiences truly customer-centric.

ABOUT THE PROJECT AND THE TEAM

Reporting directly to the Global Head of Transformation, you will be working within our B2B and Operations workstream, partnering closely with our product owner, project manager, solution architect and delivery partners, to identify and implement solutions which meet the needs of our Wholesale and wider operations teams. You will have strong demonstrated ability in partnering and influencing diverse stakeholder groups (e.g Wholesale, Finance, Merchandising, Supply Chain & Logistics), applying analytical rigour to challenge existing workflows and ensure the migration delivers genuine process improvement rather than replicating legacy constraints. You will be bridging the gap between business needs and technical requirements on technology delivery and therefore be an integral part of a dynamic team driving the transformation for AllSaints.
