Business Analyst

Business Analyst

Are you someone who doesn't just read dashboards, you build them, question them, and trace anomalies back to the source? Jimerson Birr is looking for a Business Analyst who brings both analytical rigor and technical depth to operational problems. This role is for someone who writes their own SQL, owns their data quality end-to-end, and can turn messy operational data into decisions leadership can act on. No third-party agencies or C2C candidates. Direct applicants only.

What You'll Do

• Write and maintain SQL queries to pull, validate, and reconcile operational data from source systems — not just consume reports someone else built.
• Build and automate reporting workflows using tools like Power Query, Python, or similar — reduce manual effort, increase reliability.
• Identify when a number looks wrong and own the investigation: trace it through the data pipeline, find the break, and fix or escalate with evidence.
• Evaluate opportunities to automate recurring manual processes and implement solutions independently or in partnership with IT.
• Monitor and report on key performance indicators — track SLA compliance, workload distribution, and workflow efficiency across practice groups.
• Maintain data quality in dashboards and scorecards: ensure inputs are timely, accurate, and decision-ready.
• Analyze operational data to surface trends, flag risks, and identify opportunities for process improvement.
• Document processes clearly: create SOPs, job aids, and workflow maps that capture how work gets done and how it should get done.
• Support leadership with crisp, factual reporting: status updates, risk summaries, and performance snapshots.
• Conduct root-cause analysis on recurring issues and document findings with clear, evidence-based recommendations.
• Assist with quality assurance by sampling workflows and outputs for accuracy, completeness, and adherence to standards.
• Collaborate with operations and leadership to translate goals into measurable outcomes and track progress.

Who You Are

• Analytical and detail-oriented — you trust data over assumptions and enjoy finding the story behind the numbers.
• Clear communicator who can translate complex data into concise, understandable summaries for non-technical stakeholders.
• Organized and thorough — you follow through, keep documentation current, and don't let details fall through the cracks.
• Self-directed, comfortable working independently once direction is set, and doesn't need hand-holding to stay on track.
• Comfortable with ambiguity, able to ask the right clarifying questions and work through problems methodically.

Key Responsibilities

• 2–4 years of experience in a business analyst, operations analyst, or similar role.
• Proficiency with data tools and reporting (Excel, dashboards, or similar); familiarity with CRM or practice management software a plus.
• Proven ability to document processes clearly and maintain accurate records.
• Experience in a professional services or legal environment preferred.
• Strong organizational and problem-solving skills with excellent attention to detail.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

• Dashboard Management: Maintains accurate, up-to-date dashboards trusted by leadership.
• Operational Analysis: Identifies issues and risks early before they escalate.
• Process Documentation: Creates documentation that remains effective through personnel changes.
• Executive Reporting: Delivers clear, timely data and context to support leadership decisions.
• Reporting Accuracy: Produces consistent, reliable reports that require minimal correction.
