The role

👨🏽💻 THE ROLE

We are looking for a Junior Business Analyst (Early Career) to support the discovery, definition, and validation of business and data requirements across data and analytics projects in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

What you'll do

  • Learn our ways of working and how we deliver data & analytics projects end-to-end, with guidance from senior team members

  • Gather and clarify requirements with clients and internal stakeholders, then translate them into execution-ready inputs for the delivery team (scope, acceptance criteria, dependencies, and validation approach)

  • Take ownership of business/data topics for a well-scoped domain or data source, becoming the go-to person for definitions, logic, and context

  • Provide data-driven insights and rigorous analysis to help stakeholders understand performance, trends, and opportunities, strengthening the reliability and impact of deliverables

  • Use SQL to explore data, validate assumptions, trace metrics back to source, and produce evidence to support requirements and delivery (joins, aggregations, filters, extracts)

  • Use Power BI to explore, analyze, and visualize data, supporting the validation of metrics, business logic, and project deliverables

  • Support PMs in creating and refining Kanban cards and ensuring backlog readiness for development

  • Take ownership of specific project tasks or well-scoped workstreams, coordinating inputs, following up on actions and dependencies, and helping ensure delivery stays on track

  • Progressively take on PM-like responsibilities within assigned workstreams, including task coordination, follow-up, stakeholder communication, and delivery tracking, with mentoring from experienced PMs

  • Join meetings as needed to unblock requirements and validate business logic; capture decisions/actions and update acceptance criteria accordingly

  • Validate deliverables against requirements, acceptance criteria, and business expectations

  • Help define data quality guardrails (expected ranges/tolerances and "red flag" conditions)

How you'll work

We're based in Porto, Portugal. Although this is a remote working role, we are only considering people located in Portugal.

REQUIREMENTS

This role is ideal for candidates with 0-2 years of experience, including recent graduates or those finishing their degree, with full-time availability.
