About Us
Buy It Direct is one of the UK’s fastest-growing online retailers, operating award-winning brands like Laptops Direct, Appliances Direct, and Furniture123. We’ve built our business from the ground up to become a leader in the e-commerce space, turning over hundreds of millions of pounds with ambitious plans to double in size.
Here at Buy It Direct, we don’t follow the normal ways of working. We think unconventionally. We are looking for ingenuity, tenacity, and people who want to get stuck into the real work from day one.
About the Role
Are you a commercially minded problem-solver with a knack for bridging the gap between business needs and technical solutions? We have a high-impact opportunity for a Business Analyst to join our Business Solutions team.
This is a senior-level position designed to serve as the crucial link between our operational data and on-the-ground execution. You won’t just be documenting requirements; you will be evaluating, streamlining, and revolutionising how our departments function—from logistics and commercial to customer service. You will have high visibility across the business, working closely with Director-level sponsors to deliver scalable, effective improvements.
What you’ll be doing:
*Elicit & Document Requirements: Lead workshops and interviews with senior stakeholders to gather, prioritize, and manage complex business and system requirements.
*Process Engineering: Create detailed "as-is" and "to-be" process maps (using BPMN, Visio, or similar) to identify bottlenecks and design smarter, more efficient workflows.
*Technical Translation: Act as the primary translator between our commercial/operational staff and our technical development teams, ensuring everyone understands the commercial impact of technical processes.
*Solution Design, Rollout & Testing: Work closely with Architects and Developers on the solution and assist with system testing and ensure that the final technical output matches the original business request.
*Impact Tracking: Measure and report on the commercial impact of implemented changes against key operational KPIs and ROI targets.
What we’re looking for:
*Experience: Proven experience in a Business Analysis or Process Improvement role, ideally within a fast-paced e-commerce or retail environment.
*Technical Savvy: A strong understanding of data structures and databases (SQL knowledge for reading and writing queries is a huge bonus).
*Logical Mindset: A highly analytical and logical approach with a passion for taking things apart to see how they work.
*Communication: Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to challenge the status quo and explain complex data in plain, jargon-free English.
*Methodology: Familiarity with Agile or Lean Six Sigma methodologies is highly desirable.
Benefits:
*Up to £50,000 basic salary (dependent on experience)
*Healthcare cash plan
*Your birthday off after a year of service
*Generous staff discount scheme across all our brands
*Free onsite parking
*Autonomy to make a real difference in a rapidly expanding business
