Denova is growing and is looking for a
Senior Business Analyst to support its Finance and Procurement operations. You will work closely with business stakeholders to understand how processes work today, identify where improvements can be made, and translate those needs into clear requirements and solutions that teams can actually act on.
We need someone who has worked inside Finance and Procurement environments, understands these processes deeply, and knows how to bridge the gap between business needs and operational or system changes.
This role is open exclusively to candidates residing in the Philippines and requires midshift availability.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own the end-to-end requirements lifecycle across Finance and Procurement initiatives — from stakeholder discovery and process analysis through to solution validation and adoption
- Lead current-state and future-state process analysis across P2P, O2C, Vendor Management and Procurement-to-Contract, independently identifying root causes of inefficiencies rather than just documenting symptoms
- Drive requirements-gathering workshops and stakeholder sessions with Finance, Procurement, BPO and IT leads — challenging assumptions, resolving conflicting requirements and bringing clarity where there is ambiguity
- Produce and own high-quality BA artefacts — BRDs, functional specifications, process maps, use cases, user stories and gap analyses — that are precise enough for IT to build from and clear enough for business teams to sign off on
- Lead change initiatives end-to-end, including impact assessments, solution design input, UAT planning and execution, and ensuring full business readiness before go-live
- Translate complex operational and procurement data into actionable insights and improvement recommendations — going beyond reporting what happened to explaining why it happened and what should change
- Act as a credible domain voice in cross-functional discussions with IT, Finance, Procurement and BPO teams, bringing Finance and Procurement process expertise to system design, configuration decisions and change requests
- Proactively identify process risks, gaps and control weaknesses across Finance and Procurement operations and escalate with a recommended course of action
- Ensure all documentation is accurate, version-controlled and audit-ready, setting the standard for quality within the team
Required Skills & Experience:
- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business, Supply Chain or a related field — mandatory
- Minimum 4+ years of Business Analyst experience within Finance Operations, Procurement, Shared Services or BPO environments — mandatory
- Hands-on knowledge of Procurement processes including P2P, Vendor Onboarding, Purchase Order Management and Procurement-to-Contract — mandatory
- Strong understanding of end-to-end Finance processes such as O2C, Accounts Payable and Financial Reporting — mandatory
- Proven track record producing BA artefacts: BRDs, process maps, user stories, gap analyses — mandatory
- Fluent in English, both verbal and written — mandatory
- Proficient in Excel (advanced) and Power BI
- Experience with ServiceNow or similar ITSM/workflow platforms — strong advantage
- Master's degree or equivalent professional qualification — strong advantage
