• Deep expertise in privacy and consent management, including regulatory obligations and best practice frameworks, with a proven ability to lead and deliver business analysis artefacts that enable enterprise-wide consent management capabilities.
• Manage multiple complex deliverables in a fast paced, highly regulated Private Health Insurance (PHI) environment, balancing competing priorities and dependencies.
• Be accountable for producing comprehensive business and technical analysis artefacts, including business and functional requirements, technical specifications, application and process workflows, use cases and user stories, screen mock-ups and wireframes, integration mappings and data flows, and technical impact and change assessments.
• Act as a key conduit between health insurance business stakeholders and technology teams, ensuring requirements are clearly understood and translated into scalable, compliant IT solutions.
• Work closely with business subject matter experts across business units including Risk and Compliance to understand current and future state processes, identify gaps, and discrepancies during delivery.
• Partner closely with implementation system integrators, providing detailed business and technical inputs to ensure solutions align with Heath Insurance business needs and regulatory constraints.
• Support IT solution design, development, testing, and implementation by clarifying requirements, validating solutions, and assisting with defect triage and resolution.
• Own and actively manage the project and product backlog, ensuring priorities align with enterprise initiatives, strategic roadmaps, and regulatory deadlines.
• Translate project scope and regulatory or business change into well defined functional requirements, product features, user stories, and acceptance criteria that support high quality delivery outcomes.

Essential Skills

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Technology, Business, or a related discipline, and/or 5+ years' experience in a senior Functional Business Analyst role.
• Demonstrated experience within the Private Health Insurance, General Insurance, or Life Insurance sectors, including an understanding of the regulatory, privacy, and compliance environments in which these industries operate.
• Previous experience leading the implementation of Enterprise Consent Management solutions within the financial services sector, including the elicitation and documentation of business and technical requirements, consent lifecycle management, privacy and regulatory compliance, customer preference management, integration with core enterprise platforms, stakeholder engagement, and end-to-end delivery across complex, highly regulated environments.
• Strong hands-on experience across the full systems development lifecycle, working in Agile/Scrum and hybrid delivery environments.
• Solid understanding of system design principles, integration patterns, APIs, and database concepts, with the ability to assess technical impacts of business change.
• Proven ability to work effectively with both internal technology teams and external delivery partners.
• Strong analytical capability with a track record of solving complex business and technical problems in regulated environments.
• Excellent documentation, critical thinking, and communication skills, with demonstrated proficiency in producing high-quality artefacts such as use cases, user stories, functional specifications, and business/technical requirements.
• Exposure to AI tools, such as Copilot, and experience with prompt engineering is an advantage
