We are supporting a large global consultancy working with a large NHS organisation and are seeking an experienced Business Analyst to support a growing Robotic Process Automation (RPA). The Trust has a high and increasing demand for automation, and limited development capacity.

• Produce clear Process Design Documentation (PDD) to support RPA development
• Quantify and articulate the value of automation opportunities, including:
  • Cost savings and cost avoidance
  • Staff time released
  • Operational efficiency improvements
  • Potential clinical or patient safety benefits
• Support prioritization decisions where demand exceeds available development capacity
• Proactively identify high‑value automation opportunities, including in areas where requests have not yet been raised
• Act as a link between service areas and RPA developers, ensuring requirements are clear, agreed and well documented

Essential Skills & Experience

• Experience working with Robotic Process Automation or similar automation technologies in a NHS environment (essential for the client)
• Proven experience as a Business Analyst on NHS projects/programmes
• Strong process analysis and documentation skills
• Experience developing business cases or benefits assessments
• Ability to engage confidently with a wide range of stakeholders, including clinical and non‑clinical teams
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to assess value and challenge assumptions

This role is inside IR35 regulations with payment via an umbrella company.
