Job description

Role : Business Analyst (with strong testing exposure)

Type : Independent Contract

Start : November 2025 (6 months, with potential to extend)

Location : Remote, anywhere in South Africa, delivering to a European client

Summary

We're adding two BAs to support a busy test organisation delivering digital banking capabilities. The BA(s) will free up senior test analysts and automation engineers by owning requirements, documentation, and test readiness across several workstreams. Ideal for a BA with hands‑on testing experience or a senior test analyst with a BA background, specifically with a digital banking industry exposure. You'll work across testing function, embedded with within various squads, collaboration with both BAU and a parallel project stream. You will have close interaction with automation / manual testers daily.

What you'll do

  • Lead requirements elicitation, clarification and documentation for testable acceptance criteria.
  • Produce and maintain clear, structured test artefacts : test cases, scenarios, feature files, traceability.
  • Make recommendations, unblock decisions, ensure the team is ready for execution.
  • Partner with TAs and automation engineers to align manual and automated coverage.
  • Participate in reviews where requirements / test impacts are relevant.
  • Manage stakeholders, keeping scope, risk and dependencies visible.
  • Drive continuous improvement of BA / test processes in a multi-team setup.

What you’ll bring

  • At least 5-6+ years in BA and / or software testing roles within fintech / digital banking.
  • Proven hybrid BA testing capability (either BA with strong testing, or tester with strong BA fundamentals).
  • Solid grasp of test design, Gherkin / feature files, and how automation frameworks consume requirements.
  • Comfort working around pull requests and collaborating with engineers (Git literacy a plus).
  • Experience across payments, accounts, or access control is highly advantageous.
  • Self‑starter who brings structure when others are execution‑focused; able to own outcomes.
  • Communication and documentation excellence : concise, unambiguous, and client‑ready.
  • Soft skills

  • Confidence and ownership, with the gravitas to hold the line on test readiness.
  • Pragmatic, delivery‑centred, and comfortable in a hybrid BA / test remit.
  • Collaborative, clear communicator across technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
  • Why this role exists

    Current testers are being pulled into documentation and readiness tasks that should sit with a BA. You'll take back that space, enabling the test team to focus on execution and automation while you ensure clarity, traceability and readiness.
