Business Analysis Manager

Hello,
I'm Robin, recruitment and business development consultant at FED IT, a recruitment agency specializing in IT professions.
I work on two types of recruitment: temporary and permanent.
All our consultants are IT experts who speak your language and work in your environment. We cover the IT, development, business intelligence and infrastructure professions.

Mission
Reporting to IT leadership, you will be responsible for both the business analysis (BA) practice and the overall quality assurance (QA) framework for IT initiatives.
