About the role

We are looking for a Functional Business Analyst to support engineering-focused business operations in Portland, Maine. This Long-term Contract position is ideal for someone who can translate operational needs into clear functional solutions, strengthen business system performance, and produce thorough documentation that supports decision-making. The role calls for someone who is detail oriented and can work across stakeholders, analyze current processes, and help shape effective system and reporting outcomes using Microsoft 365 Enterprise and Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations.
Responsibilities: Partner with business and technical stakeholders to gather, interpret, and organize functional needs into clearly documented business requirements. Evaluate existing business systems and workflows to identify process gaps, improvement opportunities, and solution recommendations aligned with operational goals. Create and maintain business requirement documents, process maps, and supporting functional documentation for project and system initiatives. Support configuration and functional analysis efforts related to Microsoft 365 Enterprise and Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations environments. Work with cross-functional teams to define reporting needs and improve the accuracy, consistency, and usefulness of financial reporting outputs. Facilitate discussions, workshops, and review sessions to confirm requirements, resolve questions, and align project expectations. Assist with testing preparation, validation activities, and user acceptance efforts to ensure delivered solutions meet agreed business objectives. Provide ongoing analysis for system-related enhancements, including responsibilities tied to business process changes or internal platform transitions when required.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
