ASC is Australia’s submarine company. We built the Royal Australian Navy’s Collins Class submarines, sustain them, and are now delivering their Life of Type Extension to increase the boats’ service lives.

In this role, you'll work at the intersection of people, process and program delivery, partnering with stakeholders across the business to understand requirements, improve ways of working and support the successful delivery of key initiatives. You'll play a critical role in connecting business needs with practical solutions, ensuring decisions are informed, processes are effective and outcomes are aligned to organisational objectives.

This is an opportunity to influence how work gets done across a complex and evolving environment. You'll contribute to process improvement initiatives, governance frameworks, reporting and management systems, while helping teams navigate challenges, manage dependencies and achieve successful program outcomes.

Responsibilities

• Engage with stakeholders to understand business needs, challenges and opportunities.
• Elicit, analyse and document business, operational and stakeholder requirements.
• Facilitate workshops, discussions and analysis activities to drive alignment and informed decision-making.

• Develop process maps, procedures, business requirements and governance documentation.
• Support the development of reporting, dashboards and business insights that enable data-driven decision-making.
• Assist with identifying and managing risks, dependencies and cross-functional integration challenges.
• Contribute to governance activities, continuous improvement initiatives and business transformation efforts.
• Build strong working relationships across business, project and functional teams to support successful delivery outcomes.

About you

• Experience in Business Analysis, Requirements Management, Process Improvement or a similar discipline.
• Strong stakeholder engagement, facilitation and relationship-building skills.
• Experience analysing, documenting and improving business processes and requirements.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to present information clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities with a focus on delivering business value.
• A proactive mindset and genuine passion for continuous improvement.
• Experience within Defence, maritime, engineering, infrastructure or other complex project and program environments will be highly regarded.
