Banqer

Banqer is New Zealand’s leading financial EdTech company, serving over half of all New Zealand schools, and having helped over half a million students throughout Australasia with our technology.

Education and people are at the heart of our business, seamlessly integrated with cutting-edge technology. We’re continuously growing, and striving to have the greatest impact we can on individuals and local communities, while driving commercial success to further fuel our mission. This is why we’re leading the pack when it comes to financial education software, both locally and internationally.

The Role

We’re looking for a motivated part-time (20 hours per week) Junior Business Analyst to join our high performing Product Development team.

The successful candidate will work closely with the Product Owner, collaborating across product, development, and design functions to ensure the seamless execution of our innovative financial education platforms. As a Junior Business Analyst, you will be responsible for triaging reported issues, initiating feature briefs, and conducting quality assurance to uphold our commitment to excellence.

Key responsibilities include:

• Triaging incoming issues and tasks, prioritising based on urgency and impact.
• Initiating project briefs by gathering requirements, defining objectives, and outlining scope.
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to translate business needs into actionable tasks and user stories.
• Conducting thorough quality assurance testing to identify and rectify defects or issues.
• Assisting in the documentation of processes, workflows, and best practices.
• Contributing to continuous improvement initiatives within the Product Development team.

We're explicitly looking for someone who's had experience in the space we're wanting them to enter. While we're always happy to train on the job for some aspects of the role, as a start-up, it's important you can hit the ground running with confidence.

We're looking for:

• Proven experience in a similar role, preferably within a software development environment, or a start-up environment (comfortable in a fast-paced environment with changing demands).
• Highly organised self-starter who can own an opportunity and manage their deliverables, as well as logically justify decisions made.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate across teams clearly and concisely.
• Exemplary written communication skills, demonstrated through meticulous attention to detail in grammar and spelling.
• Ability to walk through software empathetically to understand user needs and company goals.
• Familiarity with Agile methodologies and project management tools (e.g. Github, Trello) is advantageous.
• Passion for financial education and a commitment to Banqer's mission of promoting financial literacy.

At Banqer, we're committed to delivering as a high performing team. Start-up life isn't for everyone, but if you're driven, ambitious, capable, and like working around other passionate talented people, this could be the place for you. Our values (better together, useful contribution, continuous growth) set the scene and we hold each other to account in living up to those. This sets the scene for us to both excel in our roles, and enjoy the ride.

Benefits include:

• Competitive salary package commensurate with experience.
• The tools you need to do great work.
• Do work that matters, and see your impact in action through regular school visits.
• Opportunities for professional development and career growth within a growing organisation.

Intrigued?

We're really proud of what we've created and are looking for the right person to add to our awesome team. We don't take hiring lightly, so are looking for someone who understands the value they can bring to the role, and in turn, what we can offer them. If you are enthusiastic about joining a mission-driven team dedicated to revolutionising financial education, we encourage you to apply for the Junior Business Analyst role at Banqer.

Help us empower brighter financial futures!
