Senior Business Analyst

Senior Business Analyst - Business Transformation M&A Program

About the Opportunity

We're partnering with one of Australia's large, diversified group companies who operate multiple brands under one umbrella on a
high‑impact transformation program
. This is not your typical Business Analyst role, it's a chance to shape the future of a business unit undergoing
major change, business carve-outs, legal entity transition, and future operating model redesign
.

You'll be at the heart of a program with
multiple streams of work across the program
, spanning Finance, HR, Payroll, Procurement, and Shared Services, where your work will directly influence how thousands of employees experience this transformation.

What You'll be doing:

• Lead
  future state operating model discovery
  , mapping how the business will look and operate post‑transition.
• Partner with Program Leads to
  deep‑dive into business requirements
  and assess change impacts across IT systems and business processes.
• Data & Systems Segregation: divestment involving separating data, applications, and infrastructure, ensuring requirements are captured for what stays, what moves, and what gets decommissioned.
• Support
  M&A, divestment and separation activities
  , including transitional service agreements (TSA), whilst balancing legal, operational, and people impacts while documenting requirements and future state models.
• Review and renegotiate
  vendor contracts
  impacted by the new legal entity and operational model redesign.
• Change & people sensitivity: Assess, analyse and determine new reporting lines, payroll changes, or shifts in HR systems.
• Redesign and validate
  reporting frameworks
  using tools like Quantum and Qlik.
• Collaborate across a
  shared services environment
  , balancing the needs of multiple brands across this large Group entity organisation with the rigor of a central "mothership."
