About the company:

Small business owners and physicians make up a large share of the client list. Bear Creek Wealth Management is a fee-only advisory practice with two advisors, a paraplanner and an office manager. Licensing exams (SIE, Series 7, Series 66) are paid for, with study time during work hours.

Overview:

We are adding headcount to this team, so this is a new seat. Contract and full-time options available. Our headquarters is in Elgin, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. This is a full-time remote role. We use an employer of record in South Africa, so you get a proper employment contract, not a freelance agreement. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Central time. A quiet workspace and good internet are required.

Identify gaps between the system and how people actually do the work. Present findings and recommendations to managers and executives. Evaluate vendor software against requirements. Support go-lives with hands-on help and issue triage. Document business rules, data definitions and report logic. Write user stories and acceptance criteria in Jira. Work with developers and vendors to clarify requirements during the build. Analyse data in Excel and SQL to size problems and measure results.

Qualifications:

7+ years as a business analyst or in a similar requirements role. Experience writing user stories, requirements documents and test cases. Comfortable leading workshops with people who disagree. Advanced Excel skills. Familiar with Agile and Scrum.
