About the team

The Business Intelligence and Analytics team operates the hospital's Azure-based data warehouse and analytics platform, which provides management reporting and performance insights across the organization. The team supports strategic decision-making and operational performance management for hospital leadership and department managers.

About the role

The Senior Data Analyst works directly with hospital departments to understand their information needs, analyze performance data, and deliver insights that support better decision-making. You'll be the bridge between our business stakeholders and the BI development team - translating clinical and operational questions into analytical requirements, designing Power BI reports, and providing ad-hoc analysis to support hospital operations.

This role requires someone who can work independently with diverse stakeholders who don't speak data (clinicians, executives, managers), figure out what they actually need versus what they're asking for, and turn ambiguous business problems into clear data solutions.





You'll spend time in meetings understanding context, writing SQL to investigate issues, building reports that people actually use, and specifying requirements for our development team to implement.

We're looking for someone with strong analytical skills, excellent communication, and the confidence to challenge requests constructively. Healthcare experience is valuable but not essential.

Key responsibilities will be based around:

- Stakeholder engagement and requirements
- Analysis and reporting
- Data products and submissions
- Training and support

About you

The successful applicant will be someone who can work independently with diverse stakeholders (clinicians, executives, managers) who don't speak data. Healthcare sector experience, particular within Victorian public hospitals and funding models will be an advantage.

You'll bring with you:

- 3+ years’ experience as a data/business analyst, preferably in healthcare or complex operational environments
- Strong SQL skills - comfortable writing queries, joining multiple tables, aggregating data
- Proven Power BI experience: designing reports, DAX measures
- Proficiency with Excel
- Ability to communicate technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders - translating between "business speak" and "data speak"
- Experience gathering requirements from stakeholders and turning them into explicit specifications
- Statistical and analytical thinking - knowing which analysis approach fits which question
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to data accuracy
- Comfortable working independently and managing your own priorities across competing demands
- We offer a range of benefits which support our people both personally and professionally, including:
- Up to $11,660 in salary packaging to increase your take home pay
- Discounted health insurance and eye care
- A comprehensive health and wellbeing program
- Public transport options at our doorstep and end of trip facilities for cyclists
- Onsite eateries and coffee shops and inviting rooftop garden spaces
- Pathways for professional development and new career opportunities<
