Additionally, you'll mentor senior and junior business analysts, conduct peer reviews of analysis artefacts, and define best‑practice frameworks to ensure quality and consistency. You will partner closely with architects, engineers, and stakeholders to shape solution design, translate requirements into user stories, process flows, and data mappings, and validate solutions to ensure they are fit for purpose.

You will engage stakeholders across business and technology, support data analysis, migration, and governance initiatives, and contribute to delivery, risk, regulatory, and governance reporting within Agile or hybrid environments

Through Mob Way, you will be supported to grow your career while staying connected to culture. This includes strong executive connection, opportunities to build your networks, and dedicated time for in‑community experiences and elder‑led cultural immersion.

What do I need?

• Previous experience as a senior or lead business analyst 
• Solid understanding of data migration, transformation, governance, and data quality principles
• Strong stakeholder engagement, analytical, and problem‑solving skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts into clear business language
• Strong working knowledge of SQL and data querying concepts, with the ability to read, interpret, and validate queries
• Experience with enterprise data platforms and reporting tools such as Teradata and Power BI
• Experience working within Agile delivery environments, supporting structured documentation and high attention to detail

Why join us?

As part of Mob Way, you will receive tailored career support through executive coaching, culturally safe leadership development, and opportunities to strengthen your connection to community and culture.
