Job description

Through the merger of Bank Australia and Qudos Bank we're creating a better, stronger and more resilient bank for our customers and employees. As one company with two trusted brands, we're building on the strong foundations of our history and shared values as we bring together the best of both banks.

As Senior Business Analyst, you will support the delivery of the organisation's Strategic Project Portfolio and post-merger integration initiatives, helping to translate strategic priorities into practical outcomes. Working across high-profile and complex projects, you will analyse business challenges, define solutions, engage stakeholders and deliver meaningful business improvements that support the bank's growth, evolving control environment and long-term strategy.

This role can be based in Melbourne (Collingwood) or Sydney (currently in Mascot with office relocation to the CBD in November 2026).

• We have big plans to become Australia's most trusted bank and a leading purpose-driven business.
• As a certified B Corp, we're part of a global business community who meet the highest social and environmental standards, putting purpose over profit.
• Every role and person in our bank is essential to bringing our values, purpose and aspiration to life.
• We offer flexible working options, competitive salary and 14% super.
• Our staff have access to a range of meaningful benefits to support their physical and mental wellbeing including 24/7 free counselling, free flu vaccinations and discounted gym memberships.
• We also support staff with study assistance, paid parental leave (regardless of gender), volunteer, bereavement, gender affirmation and family violence leave; and the opportunity for bonus annual leave.
• We support our staff to grow their careers through learning and development and an organisational culture where we reward and recognise innovation and values, not long hours.
• We are committed to building an inclusive culture and a diverse workforce that reflects the Australian community.
• We care for a conservation reserve - where we work with key partner organisations to protect threatened species and involve staff in conservation.

What you will be doing

• Support the delivery of strategic projects and transformation initiatives, including merger integration, regulatory, technology and business change programs.
• Partner with senior leaders to support portfolio governance, prioritisation and informed decision-making across the Strategic Project Portfolio.
• Analyse complex business challenges, identify risks and opportunities, and develop practical solutions that support organisational objectives.
• Translate business needs into clear requirements and actionable outcomes that inform the design and delivery of business and technology solutions.
• Facilitate stakeholder collaboration to resolve issues, build alignment and drive successful project outcomes.
• Lead or contribute to business analysis activities, including discovery, scoping, business cases, process design and operating model improvement.
• Simplify complex information and provide insights that support effective communication, planning and decision-making.
• Take ownership of deliverables and contribute to the successful execution of strategic initiatives across the organisation.

What you will bring

• Strong experience in business analysis, transformation, consulting or a related discipline.
• Proven experience delivering outcomes within complex strategic change and transformation programs.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving and business analysis skills, with the ability to translate business needs into practical solutions.
• Excellent stakeholder engagement, influencing and communication skills, with experience working with senior leaders and cross-functional teams.
• A proactive and outcome-focused approach, with the ability to take ownership and drive results.
• Tertiary qualifications in Business Analysis, Commerce, Finance, Technology or a related discipline.
• Experience in M&A, core banking transformation, enterprise technology delivery, regulatory change or financial services will be highly regarded.
• Commitment to Bank Australia's purpose, aspiration, values and brand as well as the B Corp ethos.
