IT Business Analyst (6 months fixed term) We are a Crown-owned company charged with leading and supporting Government infrastructure projects and programmes across Aotearoa.
Since being repurposed in 2023, our focus is on supporting the Crown to deliver national infrastructure projects and programmes for a range of government agencies. We take on the day-to-day accountability for procurement and design and delivery of infrastructure and property projects, and we've recently been mandated to deliver projects for agencies with low delivery capability.
Our teams based in Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland take pride in rigorously managing the budget, timeframe and scope of infrastructure projects to ensure projects are delivered safely on time, on budget and end-user expectations are managed, and projects deliver value-for-money for the Crown. Our objectives are to improve the consistency, effectiveness, and efficiency of Crown infrastructure delivery.
Reporting to the Head of IT, the IT Business Analyst (BA) will play a vital role in supporting the business for the next 6 months through a period of significant information systems transformation. You will also be supporting the development of a Data Governance framework. Under the guidance and direction of the existing IT BA, you will be responsible for identifying, validating, and documenting software requirements and business processes for new and existing systems. You'll serve as a liaison between software vendors, internal business units, and business owners. As a project team member, the IT BA represents the needs of the users and, through elicitation and careful analysis, ensures solutions meet or exceed those needs.
This is an exciting, highly collaborative role where no two weeks will be the same. You'll want to be comfortable working in a fast-paced and ambiguous environment at times as you work on a range of different topics and projects with different internal and external stakeholders.
Based in either Christchurch or Wellington office, the role could be worked either full-time or part-time hours (0.8+FTE), workload pro-rated accordingly, so do let us know what hours work best for you in your cover letter. This is a 6 month, fixed-term opportunity commencing as soon as our selected candidate is available.
To be successful in this role, you will possess:
Relevant IT qualification and/or a Computer Science Degree
IT or Business professional with a minimum of 5 years BA experience
Experience in the engineering and/or construction sector would be advantageous
Experience documenting business processes and workflows
Strong knowledge and understanding of data governance principles
Experience in analysing data, determining data structures, data relationships, and how data may be transformed
Strong technical thinking, analytical and conceptualization skills
Strong listening and oral/written communications skills
Systems-oriented and enjoy working with new tools and applications.
Your natural ability to connect and quickly foster trusted relationships with various clients and stakeholders and engage with all levels of our business will set you apart from the rest! You'll be flexible, proactive and have a high degree of initiative and self-management. You will have a genuine desire to make a positive difference to a broad range of stakeholders as we play our part in delivering projects across New Zealand.
You'll soon become familiar with our four values: Make it Happen, Keep it Simple, Do What's Right, and Building Lasting Relationships. They are fully integrated into our team culture and the way we do business. We are proud that our team members don't just know our values but are guided by them in carrying out their work. We recognise them in each other, and we actively celebrate when they're lived out in exceptional ways.
If this all sounds like you, we look forward to hearing from you.
