Business Analyst
Glasgow
As a Barclays Business Analyst this is an exciting opportunity where you will be part of SSAS operations which is a global team responsible for a few elements of the strategic partnership between the bank and our third-party provider APTP. The team provides oversight and governance of the processing tasks performed daily and manages relationships with key business stakeholders and the vendor to ensure seamless performance.
Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, with 329 years of success, quality, and innovation behind us. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity - helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.
Working Flexibly
We're committed to providing a supportive and inclusive culture and environment for you to work in. This environment recognises and supports ways to balance your personal needs, alongside the professional needs of our business. Providing the opportunity for all our employees, globally to work flexibly empowers each of us to work in a way that suits our lives as well as enabling us to better service our customers' and clients' needs. Whether you have family commitments or you're a carer, or whether you need study time or wish to pursue personal interests, our approach to working flexibly is designed to help you balance your life. If you would like some flexibility, then please discuss this with the hiring manager, and your request will be reviewed subject to business needs.
We are currently in the early stages of implementing a hybrid working environment, which means that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office, depending on the nature of the role they are in. We're flexible on how this works and it may continue to change and evolve. Depending on your team, typically this means that colleagues spend a minimum of between 20% to 60% of their time in the office, which could be over a week, a month, or a quarter. However, some colleagues may choose to spend more time in the office over a typical period than their role type requires. We also have a flexible working process where, subject to business needs, all colleagues globally can request work patterns to reflect their personal circumstances. Please discuss the detail of the working pattern options for the role with the hiring manager.

What we're looking for:
• Proven track record of being able to leverage sound communication, influencing & relationship management skills to drive change across an Organisation
• The ability to support several projects and manage prioritisation effectively
• Ability to work on multiple tasks simultaneously managing challenging stakeholders and deadlines
• Excellent communications both orally and via email, will the ability to analyse data and present in a coherent and understandable manner to senior management
Skills that will help you in the role:
• Knowledge of securities markets including their rules and nuances
• Significant Knowledge of Asset Servicing flows
• Experience of working within the Operations function of a top tier investment bank
• Excellent Experience of working with a third-party vendor
Where will you be working?

Home to 5,000 of our colleagues, our Tradeston campus will support the community in more ways than one - by creating thousands of new career opportunities and celebrating local artists. A short walk from Central Station on the south of the Clyde, it will be a key location for the Barclays business that will deepen our ties with the city and its communities.
