Job Type: Contract
Contract Length: 3–6 Months
Pay Range: $70-90/hr
Start Date: ASAP
Location: Hybrid - San Francisco, CA (Tue/Thu On-site)
About the Opportunity:
Our client, a leader in Biotech/Pharma, is looking for a skilled Business Systems Analyst (G&A) / Junior PM to join their G&A Systems team for a 3–6 month engagement. This project involves delivering SaaS implementations and automation efforts specifically within Finance and Accounting workstreams. The role requires a versatile professional to pivot between deep functional analysis (approx. 70%) and tactical project management (approx. 30%). This is a high-impact role that requires a self-motivated professional who can hit the ground running and deliver results quickly.
Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:
This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
- Defining business requirements, creating comprehensive test plans/scripts, and maintaining requirement traceability throughout the project lifecycle.
- Leading test planning efforts, including data staging, script execution, and tracking issue resolution.
- Managing small-to-mid-sized projects from initiation through stabilization using SDLC, Agile, or hybrid methodologies.
- Owning the management of risks, issues, scope, and communications, and facilitating steering committee meetings.
- Ensuring all deliverables align with SOX and/or GxP rigor, and validating adherence to IT principles regarding integration patterns, vendor security assessments, and SSO.
We are looking for someone with a proven track record of successful contract engagements. The ideal candidate will have:
- 2–5 years of experience as a BSA or Functional Analyst.
- Deep expertise in defining business requirements and leading test planning efforts. This isn't a learning role—you need to be a subject matter expert.
- Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and manage your own time effectively to meet project goals, and comfortable "owning" a project.
- Proven familiarity with SOX environments.
- Strong communication skills to provide clear and concise status updates to the project team.
