Full Time

Bristol

 

Why join Rolls-Royce?

 

At Rolls-Royce we are proud to be a business that has truly helped to shape the modern world and are committed to always being a force for progress; powering, protecting and connecting people everywhere.

 

By joining Rolls-Royce, you'll have the opportunity to work on world-class solutions, supported by a culture that believes individuality is our greatest strength, and all perspectives, experiences and backgrounds help us innovate and enable our high-performance culture

 

GCAP (the Global Combat Air Programme) is a trilateral initiative launched in 2022 by the governments and industries of Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom. The programme will deliver an innovative stealth fighter, ready to face the threats of the future. It will provide decisive capability for its partner nations in Europe and the Indo‑Pacific, and contribute to wider global security

 

As a Business Analyst, you will work closely with the programme to understand key business requirements and translate them into a comprehensive understanding of problems and how we can translate those into IT solutions for implementation.

 

You will lead and undertake Business Analysis on large / complex IT-enabled business change projects or programmes to shape business ideas through to implementation.

 

What you will be doing:

 

  • Lead the business analysis activities across all GCAP IT initiatives including stakeholder management, requirements gathering, business process analysis and project definition
  • Take a holistic approach to gathering requirements to common business problems within GCAP, such as cross-partner secure communication, collaboration, information exchange, secure access, application requirements, data requirements etc
  • Influence and collaborate on business analysis activities with external partners on GCAP
  • Support compliance activities through GCAP governance boards and provide input to Defence IT/Central IT governance to ensure that capabilities delivered to Defence meet all applicable regulations
  • Create project documentation, including requirements summaries, as-is/to-be analyses, process mapping, data flows and stakeholder maps

 

Who we’re looking for:

At Rolls-Royce we put safety first, do the right thing, keep it simple and make a difference. These principles form the behaviours that guide us and are an essential component of our assessment process. They are the fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles.

 

  • Have demonstrable knowledge of IT delivery in Defence or high compliance industries.
  • Have demonstrable IT and business analyst knowledge, demonstrable through a TOGAF, or similar, qualification, or relevant experience
  • Be able to demonstrate a broad range of business analysis skills, such as requirements gathering and engineering, user story development, personas, business process modelling and workshop facilitation
  • Have excellent communication skills, with the ability to work with senior business stakeholders and bring technical concepts and roadmaps to life, and be able to form effective business relationships quickly at all levels of the organisation

 

Regional Benefits:

 

  • Generous Annual Leave
  • Group Income Protection provides an income in the event that you are unable to work due to illness or injury
  • Group Life Assurance provides for a lump sum benefit if you die whilst employed by Rolls-Royce
  • Digital GP provides a convenient way for you to access GP consultations
  • Employee Assistance (EAP) and Live Well programmes

 

To work for the Rolls-Royce Defence business an individual must hold a Security Check clearance. Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if you do not currently already have this in place.  Due to the nature of work the business conducts and the protection of certain assets we can only progress applications from individuals who are a UK national or, in MoD approved cases, a dual national.

 

Our vision is to ensure that the excellence and ingenuity that shaped our history continues into our future. Our multi-year transformation programme aims to turn Rolls-Royce into a high-performing, competitive, resilient and growing company. Join us, and it can be your future vision too.

 

Rolls-Royce are committed to being a respectful, inclusive, and non-discriminatory workplace where individuality is valued, diverse perspectives fuel innovation, and everyone can thrive

As part of our selection process, candidates in certain locations may be asked to complete an online assessment, which can include cognitive and behavioural aptitude testing relevant to the role. If required, full instructions for the next steps will be provided.
