Jira Administrator/Resource Management Analyst

Jira Administrator / Delivery Operations Analyst / Project Analyst
About the Role
Our client is seeking a hands-on Jira Administrator to support IT delivery teams in a fast-moving, software development environment.
This role sits at the intersection of Jira administration, delivery support, and resource management, and is ideal for someone who enjoys owning
tooling, supporting teams, and bringing structure to complex work.
This is not a Jira "power user" role. Jira Administration is mandatory and must be part of your most recent role, with the ability to provide concrete, real-world examples.

What You'll Do

• Own Jira Administration across projects and teams, including:
  • Workflow configuration and updates
  • Permission schemes, issue types, and field configurations
  • Board setup, reporting, and ongoing optimization
• Partner closely with IT and software delivery teams, communicating effectively in an Agile / development environment
• Support resource and capacity management within Jira, helping teams understand allocation, availability, and delivery impact
• Use Excel to track, analyze, and support delivery and resource data
• Act as a problem-solver for Jira-related questions, improvements, and process enhancements
• Learn quickly, think critically, and adapt as team needs evolve

Required Qualifications (Non-Negotiable)

• Hands-on Jira Administration experience in your most recent role
  • This is mandatory and will be validated during screening
  • Must be able to speak clearly to configurations you personally owned
• Experience working in an IT / software development environment
  • Similar to a Business Analyst, you can communicate comfortably with technical teams
  • Deep technical coding skills are not required
• Strong Excel proficiency
• Clear understanding of resource and capacity management (true Jira Admins will recognize this immediately)
• Demonstrated critical thinking and ability to learn quickly

Nice to Have (But Not the Focus)

• Project management or delivery support experience
• Exposure to budgeting or financial tracking
  • Note: this role does not handle invoices or vendor financials

Who This Role Is For
This role is a strong fit for professionals who have held
titles such as:

• Jira Administrator
• Project Analyst / Project Manager (with real Jira Admin ownership)
• Business Analyst (with hands-on Jira administration)
• Delivery Operations or Resource Management Analyst
