Job Description

Do you want to contribute to a strong and future-proof information provision for Defense? Are you good at understanding complex processes and information issues, and can you accurately identify the real need behind a question? Then we are looking for you.

As a Medior Business Analyst at the Defense Support Command (DOSCO), you work closely with the business. You analyze processes and information needs and provide the insights on which information managers, architects, and management can base their decisions.

You are responsible for the in-depth analysis. You investigate complex issues and visualize processes, information needs, information flows, bottlenecks, and dependencies in a cohesive manner. You help the organization to first properly understand the problem and the information need before solutions are chosen. You play an important role in agile working. You support and guide the product owner, lead workshops, and actively involve business representation in the agile methodology. With this, you lay the foundation for information provision that optimally aligns with the needs of our organization.

What will you do?
You are responsible for analyzing and structuring complex business and information issues. You:
- help departments, domain owners, and managers to accurately identify their real information needs;
- translate information needs into concrete and verifiable business requirements;
- conduct impact analyses for changes in processes, information provision, or systems;
- work closely with architects to safeguard coherence, standards, and future information provision;
- clearly present complex analyses and advice to employees, specialists, and management.

Job Requirements

Who are you?
You are analytically strong and curious about how organizations actually function. You don't just accept a question or a proposed solution at face value, but ask further: what problem are we solving, what objective are we supporting, how does the process currently work, and what information is needed for that? You bring structure to complex situations, quickly see connections, and can well distinguish between what is important and what is not. You know how to bring different interests together and can convincingly explain your analyses to both employees and senior management.
In addition, you are organizationally sensitive, proactive, and capable of operating effectively in a large and partly hierarchical organization.

What do you bring?
You possess:
- university work and thinking level and at least a completed bachelor's degree;
- at least three years of demonstrable experience as a business analyst or in a similar analytical role;
- extensive experience with process analysis, information analysis, and requirements analysis;
- experience in preparing stakeholder analyses and complex stakeholder environments;
- experience in preparing impact and dependency analyses;
- affinity with information provision, digitization, and organizational change;
- excellent command of the Dutch language, both spoken and written.

It is a plus if you have experience with architectural principles or TOGAF, process harmonization, and guiding or coaching business analysts. Experience within Defense, the national government, or another large and complex organization is also a plus.

What makes this role special?
DOSCO faces a significant growth and transformation challenge. At the same time, we are building a more professional structure for Information Management and Business Analysis. This means that not everything is yet established. You will have the space and responsibility to help shape how Business Analysis is performed within DOSCO. You combine three elements: you work closely with the operational reality of a division, you analyze complex organizational and information issues, and you help to further build a professional field.
