Job Description
Insight Global's client is looking for a Business Analyst to join their item. The ideal candidate would come from a consulting environment because of their strength in structured thinking, fast ramp-up on unfamiliar domains, client-ready output, comfort with a moving target.
- This is a hands-on, individual-contributor role supporting a Product Manager operating across multiple concurrent workstreams. You will not have a team; you will be the one producing the work.
- Comfort operating with incomplete information. You will frequently be asked to make progress on something before the problem is fully defined, and to bring back a first draft rather than a list of questions.
- Ability to move between strategic and tactical work in the same day — drafting an executive update in the morning, chasing down a vendor deliverable in the afternoon, building a requirements workbook after that.
- Strong written communication. A meaningful portion of this role is producing artifacts that go to senior leadership: status narratives, readouts, business cases, decision memos.
- Experience translating unstructured stakeholder conversations into structured documentation — business requirements, process flows, elaboration workbooks, acceptance criteria.
- Vendor and third-party coordination experience: tracking commitments, holding partners to timelines, and escalating clearly when they slip.
Success in the first 90 days looks like:
-
Independently owning documentation and follow-through for at least two active workstreams
-
Producing leadership-ready materials that require editing, not rewriting
-
Proactively surfacing risks and blockers before they are asked about
-
Project Goal: Modernize store operations technology.
-
Eliminate unused legacy technology in stores.
-
Introduce a unified platform for daily work.
-
Current Challenges:
-
Lack of internal communication tools (e.g., chat) for store employees.
-
Many operations are still performed manually using "clipboard paper."
-
District managers spend "four hours a week consolidating reports from different sources" to assess store performance.
-
No visibility into inventory location (back room vs. retail floor).
-
Target Audience:
-
All store employees (retail associates, pharmacists).
-
Field leaders: District Managers, District Pharmacy Supervisors, Regional Vice Presidents (entire field organization).
-
Proposed Solutions & Initiatives:
-
Unified Platform: Implementing Microsoft Teams as a platform for over 200,000 field personnel.
-
Customized Microsoft Teams experience for store managers.
-
Development of custom apps for specific store tasks (e.g., store walks, task management).
-
Automation: Automating manual daily tasks.
-
Inventory Modernization: Developing systems to track inventory in the back room versus on the retail floor.
-
Reporting Consolidation: Aim to provide easier ways to consolidate reports for field leaders.
Skills and Requirements
-2-4 years of Business Analyst experience -Someone who will dive in, ability to work cross functionally across teams -Ability to follow up and make sure things are on track -Able to create weekly slide updates, etc.
- Familiarity with enterprise collaboration and reporting tooling (Microsoft 365, Power BI, Copilot Studio, Jira/Azure DevOps) is useful (they use Azure DevOps) -Retail, pharmacy, healthcare, or frontline/store operations exposure is a plus but not required. (retail experience would be ideal) -Certifications are not required and will not be weighted in evaluation. -Deep technical or engineering expertise is not required and is not the focus of this role.
