Business Analyst II

Kforce has a client that is seeking a Business Analyst II. This position sits in Downtown Houston with ability to work remotes on Fridays. Summary: This client is seeking two Analysts to support a long-term (5-7 year) smart meter installation initiative. These Analysts will play a key role in improving operational efficiency by collecting, organizing, and analyzing data from active work orders and field operations, with a focus on installation, repair, and maintenance processes. They will be responsible for developing insights and reporting around key performance metrics across the gas operations team, identifying trends, gaps, and opportunities to streamline workflows and standardize processes. As the project matures, the role will evolve into analyzing real-time smart meter data-including pressure, temperature, and leak indicators-to identify anomalies and determine whether issues stem from network systems or physical meter failures, ultimately supporting more proactive, data-driven decision-making across the organization.
