Sydney | 6-Month Contract | Hybrid (3 days onsite)
We're partnering with a leading international financial services organisation undertaking a significant enterprise application transition and rationalisation program across multiple APAC regions.
This is not a traditional transformation BA role focused on customer-facing digital products.
Instead, you'll work at the intersection of capital markets operations, enterprise applications, SQL-driven analysis, and stakeholder coordination.
You'll join a small, high-performing technology and operations team responsible for transitioning a large portfolio of applications and operational processes into specialist technology teams.
You'll be expected to investigate, document, analyse, recommend, and drive outcomes, rather than simply gather requirements.
Business Analyst Key Responsibilities:
Gather and translate business requirements into clear technical requirements and user stories
Work closely with developers to clarify functional and data-related impacts
Support SQL and data-impact analysis for application and schema changes
Coordinate transition and handover activities with receiving technology teams
Engage stakeholders across Operations, Treasury, Risk, Finance, and other capital markets functions




Produce practical recommendations and drive workstreams through to completion
Business Analyst Key Requirements:
Solid Business Analysis experience within investment banking, capital markets, custody, treasury, settlements, regulatory, or middle/back-office environments
Ability to write and understand SQL queries
Experience working with enterprise applications rather than only digital/web products
Strong analytical and documentation skills
Ability to manage ambiguity and work independently
Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills
Desirable:
Exposure to Python or scripting environments (reading/understanding rather than hands-on development)
Experience with application migration, rationalisation, decommissioning, or support transition programs
Product Owner or hybrid BA/PO experience
Working Arrangements:
Sydney-based
Hybrid model with minimum 3 days in the office
Occasional collaboration with Singapore and Hong Kong stakeholders, so some flexibility around APAC hours is helpful
Interviews will be conducted from W/C 17th August so if you're a technical BA from a capital markets or investment banking operations environment who enjoys owning workstreams end-to-end.
