About You

Are you a systems-focused problem solver who enjoys improving how people work? Join RMIT as a Business System Analyst and play a key role in shaping the tools and processes that support world-class research.

In this role, you'll be one of two Business Systems Analysts sharing responsibility for keeping our systems performing at their best - solving complex issues, delivering enhancements, and partnering with researchers, support teams, and vendors to ensure the tools they rely on are reliable, efficient, and continuously improving.

Your day-to-day will include managing service requests, troubleshooting technical issues, analysing workflows, and contributing to projects that enhance system functionality and user experience. You'll collaborate as a small, focused team supporting each other's work while also managing your own portfolio of tasks and initiatives.

If you love problem-solving, enjoy collaborating with diverse teams, and have a knack for turning technical complexity into practical solutions, this is your chance to make an impact.

At RMIT, you'll join a community that values innovation, inclusion, and integrity. You'll help enable research that changes lives, while building your own career in a supportive, forward-thinking environment.

To be successful in this position, you'll have:

• Demonstrated understanding of system administration practices, lifecycle management, and governance within enterprise or research management systems, including coordination with IT support functions and vendors.
• Excellent communication, relationship-building and negotiation skills with the ability to work collaboratively with academic, professional staff and technical areas to understand challenges and deliver practical solutions.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving capability, with the capacity to assess complex issues and develop effective, data-informed, and sustainable solutions aligned with institutional objectives.
• Demonstrated experience in gathering, analysing, and documenting business requirements, and translating them into system configurations, workflows, and process improvements.
• Proven ability to develop and maintain accurate documentation, including process maps, knowledge articles, training materials, and reports, ensuring clarity and version control.
• Demonstrated capacity to work independently and proactively, manage competing priorities, and deliver high-quality outcomes within agreed timeframes.

Please Note: Appointment to this position is subject to passing a Working with Children and National Police Check.
