Turn data into insights that make a difference

At Uniting, we believe in taking real steps to make the world a better place. Our purpose is to inspire people, enliven communities and confront injustice, and the insights we gain from data play an important role in helping us achieve this.

We’re looking for a Senior Technical Business Analyst – Data & Analytics who can connect business priorities, data and technology to shape better decisions and deliver meaningful outcomes.

This is an opportunity to work across business and technical teams, uncover the real problems behind reporting requests, and translate complex data challenges into clear requirements, actionable insights and effective solutions.

You’ll join our Data & Analytics team and work within the Seniors squad, helping deliver prioritised data and analytics initiatives that support business decision-making. We’re looking for someone who combines strong business analysis skills with hands‑on technical capability and who can confidently challenge assumptions to ensure we solve the right problems.

What you’ll be doing

• Lead discovery and requirements gathering: Facilitate workshops and stakeholder consultations to understand business challenges, identify the decisions that need to be supported and define measurable outcomes.
• Translate business needs into actionable requirements: Develop clear, traceable requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, business rules, metric definitions, data mappings and reporting specifications.
• Investigate and analyse data: Use SQL, Power BI and Excel to explore source data, assess data quality, validate transformations and reconcile reporting outputs.
• Connect business processes and technology: Analyse business processes, data flows, source systems and integration points to identify issues, dependencies and opportunities for improvement.
• Challenge assumptions and shape solutions: Look beyond initial requests to uncover underlying business needs, evaluate options and recommend approaches that deliver genuine value.
• Turn analysis into insights: Communicate complex findings through clear data storytelling, visualisations and evidence‑based recommendations for technical and non‑technical audiences.
• Support end‑to‑end delivery: Maintain traceability from initial business needs through solution design, data modelling, development, testing and implementation.
• Drive quality and readiness: Lead analysis for backlog refinement, solution validation, system integration testing, user acceptance testing, release readiness and post‑implementation reviews.
• Manage risks and dependencies: Identify and elevate delivery, data quality, privacy, security and governance risks, ensuring appropriate controls are considered.
• Build team capability: Share knowledge, provide guidance and contribute to consistent business analysis standards and continuous improvement across the Data & Analytics team.

What you’ll bring

You’re a curious, analytical and solutions‑focused professional who enjoys working at the intersection of business and technology. You can navigate ambiguity, ask the right questions and translate complex information into practical recommendations that help stakeholders make informed decisions.

To succeed in this role, you’ll bring:

• At least five years’ experience as a Technical Business Analyst or Data Analyst, including delivering data and analytics solutions.
• A relevant tertiary qualification in business analysis, data management, information technology or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience.
• Strong requirements elicitation, stakeholder engagement, business process analysis and process‑modelling skills.
• Demonstrated ability to translate complex or ambiguous business problems into clear requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria and business rules.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving capabilities, with the ability to investigate issues, challenge assumptions and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Experience working collaboratively with business stakeholders, data teams and technical delivery teams.
• Experience working in Agile delivery environments, including user acceptance testing and solution implementation.
• Strong communication and data storytelling skills, with the ability to present insights and recommendations clearly to different audiences.
• An understanding of data governance, privacy, information security and responsible AI.

Your technical toolkit

Hands‑on experience with the following is essential:

• SQL: Investigating source data, profiling data quality, validating transformations and reconciling outputs.
• Power BI: Analysing data and developing reporting and visualisation solutions.
• Excel: Data analysis, validation and reconciliation.
• Data and reporting fundamentals: Understanding data flows, system integration points, data quality, metric definitions and reporting requirements.

Experience with data warehousing, dimensional modelling, APIs, integration patterns, cloud data platforms or metadata management would be advantageous.

Experience in aged care, health, community services or the not‑for‑profit sector is also desirable, particularly if you have worked with aged care business processes, clinical systems or human resources systems.

Relevant certifications or formal training in business analysis, Agile delivery, data management or business intelligence would be an added advantage.

You’ll also build strong relationships with business stakeholders, subject matter experts, product owners, project managers, solution designers and other technical specialists.
