About the RoleWe're looking for a Business Analyst who can drive business transformation across Bridgewater's back-office and enablement teams - not by handing off a set of requirements, but by seeing the solution through to delivery. This role sits closer to hands-on delivery than traditional program management: you'll gather requirements, re-engineer processes, and implement the resulting technology solutions directly, partnering with business stakeholders throughout. The ideal candidate has real business transformation and process re-engineering experience - Workday experience is a strong plus, particularly in the Finance modules, but the core skill this role needs is the ability to take a business problem, work through it with the people who own it, and deliver a solution, across whichever ERP/CRM/AI tooling the problem calls for.
You Will Drive the Following Responsibilities- Partner directly with business users across back-office and enablement teams to understand process and technology needs, and translate them into practical solutions
- Gather requirements and deliver functional business analysis for technology and process transformation projects
- Re-engineer existing business processes in service of better outcomes, not just new tooling
- Implement business solutions leveraging enterprise platforms, including but not limited to SaaS (Workday, Coupa, Salesforce) & an expanding AI toolset
- Provide day-to-day support to Bridgewater's internal customers on the systems and processes you own
- See projects through from requirements to implementation, rather than handing off before delivery
Required Qualifications- Bachelor's degree at a four-year accredited university
- 2+ years of experience as a Business Analyst
- Demonstrated experience in business transformation and process re-engineering - translating business requirements into implemented solutions
- Exposure to AI workflows and tooling in an enterprise or enablement context
- Hands-on experience implementing solutions within an ERP or CRM platform (e.g., Workday, Salesforce)
- Strong ability to partner with business stakeholders and bring forward solutions, rather than solely defining requirements for others to build
- Comfort operating with ambiguity, prioritizing across multiple workstreams, deeply partnering with business partners across departments, and driving issues to resolution as an owner
Nice-to-Have Qualifications- Functional Experience with Workday Finance or HCM models
- Experience spanning multiple ERP/CRM platforms rather than a single system
- Experience within a business function (Finance, HR, Legal)
Location RequirementsThis is a hybrid role. While this role is primarily remote, you will be expected to be onsite in our Westport, CT offices approximately 1 week per month.
Compensation BandThe compensation range for this role is $200K - $250K inclusive of base salary, discretionary bonus, and potential long-term incentive. The expected base salary for this role is between 75-90% of the range.
