A client of Insight Global is looking for a Business Case & Project Analyst to join the intake team of a global manufacturing company. This individual will be responsible for building the initial time and cost estimates that go into business cases for IT and capital projects.

They should have advanced Excel skills, strong financial/business acumen, and excellent communication skills to bridge between data, stakeholders, and decision makers.
