Business Analyst closed

Job description

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by 👋

Are you actively looking for a new opportunity? Or just checking the market? Well… you might just be in the right place!

We have bike enthusiasts, foodies, video game heroes, dog and cat lovers, movie buffs, musicians, and every variety of people. Lightspeed was founded on the principles of diversity and inclusion and our daily practices and interactions reflect this commitment everyday. Wherever you look, you will find a friend in Lightspeed. If you’re keen to join, we’re looking for a Business Analyst (Permanent Work from Home) to join our team in Manila.

As Business Analyst, you will help us improve the way we work across our regional teams. In this role, you’ll focus on making internal processes, workflows, and documentation more efficient and consistent—especially for our Go-To-Market (GTM) teams. You’ll work on identifying where things can be improved, setting up standard processes, and building a clear, easy-to-use knowledge base. This knowledge base will also support future integration of AI tools (like Copilot in Intercom) to streamline support, reduce manual effort, and improve team efficiency.

As a key member of the team, you’ll play an important role in helping us work smarter, scale faster, and deliver better experiences for both our customers and our people.

What you’ll be doing:

• Document and standardise end-to-end workflows across GTM teams (e.g. Sales, Success, Onboarding) to improve handovers, reduce duplication, and ensure consistent execution
• Build and manage a central knowledge base (e.g. Confluence) that includes processes, FAQs, and playbooks to support onboarding, reduce repetitive queries, and enable future AI tools like Copilot
• Improve collaboration between GTM and cross-functional teams (Support, Partnerships, Payments) by mapping touchpoints, clarifying roles, and implementing shared processes
• Optimise key operational processes such as account transitions, renewals, and partner onboarding by identifying inefficiencies and introducing automation where possible
• Conduct detailed churn analysis to identify root causes, surface customer trends, and provide insights that shape retention and growth strategies
• Use data to uncover process gaps, evaluate the impact of current tools and workflows, and prioritise high-value improvements and automation opportunities

What you need to bring:

We’re looking for a candidate who has experience with the following:

• Prior experience in a Business Analyst or similar role, with a strong focus on improving processes, creating documentation, and streamlining workflows
• Background working in SaaS or tech environments, especially in areas like account management, customer success, or operations
• Confident using tools like Confluence, Jira, Salesforce, and Slack to manage projects, documentation, and team collaboration
• Previous experience leading change—able to drive process improvements, get stakeholder support, and help teams adopt new ways of working

Our hiring process is very straightforward. You’ll undergo a preliminary video screening, and the whole process will be conducted at the comfort of your own home, through Zoom or Google Meet. No need to go through Manila’s heavy traffic!
