BRM - Revenue Enablement (Fitch Ratings) is currently seeking a Business Analyst based out of our Chicago office.
BRM's global Revenue Enablement Team is tasked with ensuring that Fitch Ratings' Business & Relationship Management team (BRM) has the right resources, messaging, content, and tools in place to work more effectively. The team seeks to improve BRM's ability to spend more time on revenue and value-generating activities and less time on admin-related tasks, with a focus on process improvement, technology adoption, reporting, content, training, and stakeholder communications.
We're looking for a Business Analyst to support the bridge between BRM teams and technical delivery groups. This position will support multiple sectors across BRM. In this role, you will develop strong subject matter knowledge across these business areas while supporting requirements gathering, documentation, project coordination, testing, and stakeholder communication. You will help translate business needs into clear user stories, acceptance criteria, process flows, and supporting documentation so that technical teams can deliver practical enhancements. Partnering with BRM colleagues, development teams, QA, infrastructure teams, and business stakeholders, you will support platform improvements that reduce administrative burden and help BRM teams work more effectively.
What We Offer:
- Great Development Opportunity: Build your business analysis skills in a role that combines requirements gathering, process improvement, project coordination, and stakeholder engagement.

- Project Coordination & Delivery Support: Assist with the coordination of projects, enhancements, and change requests from discovery through delivery. Help maintain Jira tickets, timelines, documentation, actions, and status updates. Follow up with stakeholders and technical teams to clarify requirements, track progress, support issue resolution, and escalate blockers where appropriate.
- Stakeholder Communication: Build strong working relationships with BRM teams, technology teams, and other stakeholders. Provide clear updates on assigned workstreams, ask questions to understand business priorities, support stakeholder walkthroughs or demos, and help ensure users are prepared for testing, feedback, and upcoming changes.
- Process Improvement & Learning: Support the identification of process improvements, platform enhancements, and opportunities to make day-to-day work easier for BRM teams. Contribute to documentation templates, process notes, knowledge sharing, and lessons learned while continuing to build your understanding of BRM processes, systems, and ways of working.
