Have you ever been curious about how Business Analysts operate across different industries?
We're excited to launch "A Day in the Life of a BA".
Each month, we invite passionate BA professionals to share real-world experiences, daily routines, challenges, and insights into their industry.
👉 For November, we’re excited to welcome Jennifer Bedell, a seasoned BA who will give us a practical look into the world of business analysis in Fintech.
Jennifer has presented internationally at several conferences in person and virtually with topics related to business analysis, change management, and work-life balance. Her goal is to inspire others to be a positive influence in their projects by sharing her experiences.
Jennifer loves to look at the world through multiple perspectives. This may be why she was selected as the SME for a system replacement project back when she was a disability claims adjudicator. That project led her to roles in Quality, Business Analysis, Change Management and everything in between. She is currently managing a team of Business Analysis consultants within Mariner Innovations and has been consulting with a FinTech company since March 2020. Jennifer is based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
In today’s highly regulated financial landscape, Business Analysts play a critical role in balancing innovation with compliance. Drawing from real-world experience in the lending domain, this session explores the daily challenges and rewards of being a BA in the fintech sector — where precision, privacy, and process intersect.
Jenn will share insights from her recent work supporting a client’s migration to a new core banking system, highlighting the intricate web of interdependencies across third-party integrations. The session will also delve into how regulatory frameworks, privacy requirements, and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) obligations shape business analysis activities in the financial services industry.
- Understand the BA’s Role in a Regulated Environment
- Recognise the Interconnected Nature of the Fintech System
- Apply Lessons from Core Banking Transformations
Don’t miss this opportunity to step into the world of business analysis and connect with peers in the broader BA community. See you there! 🌟
