Hybrid
Posted 1 month ago

Ascension LLC is seeking a Senior BI Analyst / Requirements Lead to serve as a critical bridge between business stakeholders and technical implementation teams in support of the American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC) Business Intelligence initiative.

This role is essential to the success of the effort because the Agency currently lacks a unified data structure and BI capability. The selected candidate will lead stakeholder engagement, define enterprise information needs, and translate fragmented, decentralized data into actionable insights and KPI-driven reporting frameworks that enable decision-making across globally distributed operations.

The ideal candidate is a strategic thinker and hands-on analyst who excels in ambiguous environments, can lead requirements discovery across diverse stakeholders, and can shape how data is structured, governed, and visualized for enterprise-level BI solutions.


Position Summary

The Senior BI Analyst / Requirements Lead will lead data needs assessment, stakeholder engagement, KPI definition, and reporting logic development to support the design and implementation of ABMC’s enterprise BI system.

This role requires a detail-oriented, self-driven professional who can:

  • Conduct interviews and workshops with leadership and functional stakeholders
  • Translate business needs into structured data and reporting requirements
  • Define KPIs and performance metrics across multiple operational domains
  • Support transformation of unstructured and siloed data into BI-ready formats

The candidate must be comfortable working in a highly ambiguous, data-mature but unstructured environment, where data exists across SharePoint, Excel, SMEs, and disconnected systems, and must be synthesized into a unified framework.

Tools & Technologies:
Microsoft 365 (Excel, SharePoint, Teams), Power BI, Azure (preferred), data modeling tools, stakeholder facilitation frameworks, KPI frameworks


Key Responsibilities / Day-to-Day Activities

  • Conduct stakeholder interviews and workshops to define business intelligence needs
  • Engage senior leadership and functional stakeholders to elicit reporting requirements and KPIs
  • Analyze existing data sources across multiple formats (SharePoint, Excel, SMEs, systems of record)
  • Define enterprise-level KPIs, performance metrics, and reporting frameworks
  • Develop business requirements documents, data dictionaries, and reporting logic
  • Perform gap analysis between current data environment and BI needs
  • Translate business requirements into technical specifications for BI developers and architects
  • Facilitate cross-functional working sessions to align data definitions and metrics
  • Support data transformation strategies to make data consumable for BI tools
  • Collaborate with dashboard developers to ensure alignment between requirements and visualization outputs
  • Validate data accuracy, completeness, and consistency across reporting outputs
  • Assist in defining performance measurement frameworks (e.g., green/amber/red KPI models)
  • Document requirements, processes, and stakeholder decisions for traceability and governance
  • Support user acceptance testing (UAT) by validating requirements against delivered dashboards
