Key Responsibilities

• Gather, analyse, and document stakeholder requirements, translating them into user stories, functional designs, and testable acceptance criteria.
• Support features from requirements elaboration through development, testing, defect resolution, and production implementation.
• Analyse existing business processes against intended future-state processes, identifying and documenting gaps, impacts, and required changes.
• Work closely with developers throughout the build process to clarify functional requirements and resolve requirement-related questions.
• Execute functional testing for assigned user stories, document defects in JIRA, and perform retesting following remediation.
• Write and execute SQL queries to investigate and validate system and data behaviour.
• Work within an Agile delivery model, contributing to Sprint activities and following agreed delivery standards and plans.
• Use generative AI tools, including Claude, to support the drafting of user stories and acceptance criteria, while independently reviewing and validating AI-generated content before use.

Required Qualifications

• 1–3 years of experience in business analysis, preferably within technology or digital delivery environments.
• At least 1 year of experience working in an Agile delivery environment using JIRA and Sprint-based delivery practices.
• Experience supporting a government, regulated, or similarly controlled system, with exposure to delivering features from elaboration through production.
• Experience developing functional designs based on stakeholder requirements, with guidance or review from senior team members.
• Demonstrated ability to document current-state and future-state processes and clearly identify differences or gaps.
• Hands-on experience writing testable acceptance criteria, executing functional tests, managing defects, and performing defect retesting.
• Working knowledge of SQL for analysing and validating system data and behaviour.

Preferred Qualifications

• Exposure to test automation tools or techniques, or willingness to develop test automation capability as part of the role.
• Familiarity with generative AI tools for business analysis activities, with an understanding of the importance of reviewing, validating, and refining AI-generated outputs.
• Strong communication, analytical thinking, attention to detail, and collaboration skills.
