Not sure where you are on your BA career journey?

Not sure what you need to build next — or what getting to the next level actually looks like?

This is for you.

The BA Career Growth Map is a clean, visual, one page roadmap that shows you the complete Business Analysis career journey from start to finish — so you always know exactly where you are, what you need, and what gets you to the next stage.

The five stages:

🧭 Stage 01 — Aspiring BA

Zero experience. Your first BA role is the goal. Here is what to build, what to do, and what milestone gets you there.

🧱 Stage 02 — BA

First role secured. Now the work of building real credibility begins. Here is what good looks like at this level and what moves you forward.

🎯 Stage 03 — Senior BA

You know the job. Now you become the trusted adviser. Here is what separates the Senior BA from the BA who stays stuck.

👥 Stage 04 — Lead BA / BA Manager

Leading others. Influencing at programme level. Here is what this stage actually requires — and what most people underestimate.

⭐ Stage 05 — Head of BA / Director / Consultant

The top of the ladder inside an organisation — or the pivot to independent consulting. Here is what it takes and what it looks like.

Who is this for:

— Career changers trying to figure out how to break into BA

— Junior and mid level BAs who want to see where they are headed
