Manager’s Overview
- Not one particular project but in this will be in the forecasting and finance space within the commercial organization at a global research-based pharmaceutical company.
- Looking for a very capable Senior BSA
- Any forecasting or financing experience is desired
- This role is a very typical BSA, uncover needs and clarify them, no architecting or engineering but also act in DevOps Agile way, Jira, immediate need on one product I now own, possible this role may go across a couple systems in finance, forecasting and reporting
Hiring Manager Q&A
- What is the reporting structure, will they report directly to you? Initially me because I need to grow this team, in the future this role will morph into a Product owner. Think of me as Portfolio Manager and this BSA will roll up to Product Owner
- Are they working with internal customers only? Yes, all internal depending. Power BI Dashboard and Data Visualization is what I need now to help with long range forecasting. Supported internally by forecasting group and stakeholders. This role interfaces with developers and engineers so they own the product roadmap and then reach out to all the groups that support along the roadmap. Very traditional BSA, surfacing or validating needs, getting into Jira and the Agile sprints and getting them developed.
- What systems should this Senior BSA have? Experience with user stories and documenting them in Jira. They should be very familiar with Jira, user stories, sprints, Confluence for SLC. They need to know that and it is a hard requirement. And in regards to documentation, we look for how do you get the needs, how do you pre-solution for stakeholders, go back to stakeholders and document well enough so dev teams can work.
- Are there any technical skills in particular the candidate should come with? It’s more important they understand the concepts of forecasting and financing. Then can communicate conceptually without being too technical. They don’t design or architect or tell dev team how to structure but should be able to articulate it almost agnostically of technology. Again, it’s Power BI, so if they understand that that is very valuable to this particular assignment. More logical and agnostically aside form Power BI.
