1 IntroductionThis career summary provides a high level overview of my career goals, objectives, experience and skills. It provides an introduction to who I am and what I can offer potential employers or clients moving forward in my IT career.

A full career history can be provided in a more traditional resume format if required that provides more detail on the information provided in this summary.

2 Career GoalsWith 27 years’ experience in the IT industry and 18 years as a Business Analyst/Project Manager my current career goal is to develop and implement a streamlined business analysis process, project management and system engineering approach that will ensure a high quality and value for money outcome for all projects I am involved in.

I am also seeking to take more of a strategic, leadership and mentoring role within the IT industry to pass on my experience to the next generation of analysts and managers.

3 Career ObjectivesThrough using a structured and methodical project approach, my primary objective as Senior Business Analyst and/or Project Manager is to provide specialised “end to end“ BA/PM services to my clients from inception of an idea through to implementation and support of the new IT solution.

The specialised BA/PM services I offer include:

Working with clients to clearly identify their strategic business need and goals for the new IT solution while ensuring the identified goals are aligned to existing strategic plan targets or objectives.

Conducting requirements workshops to assist clients with defining the operational concept and business requirements for the new system and documenting this informa-tion in a Business Specification.

Following the approval of the Business Specification, conduct gap analysis to identify the gaps between current business systems and the new business requirements and document the analysis findings in a Gap Analysis Report.

Following the approval of the Business Specification, conduct market research to identify potential solutions for meeting the business requirements and to recommend a course of action for the procurement phase and document the findings of this research in a Market Research Paper.

Working with clients to develop a Business Case or Acquisition Plan for obtaining ap-proval to commence an implementation project to deliver a solution that meets the ap-proved Business Specification.

To assist clients with preparing and issuing a tender (RFI, RFQ, RFT) for the delivery of the recommended solution using the Business Specification as the Tender Specifica-tion and then providing specialist IT support to the tender evaluation team to evaluate vendor proposals from an IT perspective.

To assist clients with preparing/reviewing contracts or agreements and preparing a Statement Of Work for the delivery of the new solution once a preferred Vendor/solu-tion is selected during the tender process and also to assist with the final contract ne-gotiations with the selected vendor.
