Senior Business Analyt

Senior Business Analyst | Full-Time Contract | Cape Town (Hybrid)

A high-profile technology integration programme within a global organisation is looking for a Senior Business Analyst to lead analysis across a complex, multi-region initiative. The focus is on core platform integration (M365) and broader migration activities - spanning governance, compliance, data reconciliation, and business process redesign.

Due to the high volume of applications expected, candidates who have not received feedback within two weeks of applying should consider their application unsuccessful.

• Support testing and validation including functional testing, UAT, and controls verification aligned with internal audit and risk frameworks

• Provide process, stakeholder, and impact analysis to support the Change Manager
• Facilitate workshops with business stakeholders, technical SMEs, and delivery teams to elicit and validate requirements

• 5+ years of business analysis experience across technology-led change initiatives

• Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Business, Computer Science, or equivalent CBAP or CCBA certification advantageous
• Ideal Background Experience on complex business integrations or mergers across multiple jurisdictions
• Track record in large, complex corporate environments where governance and audit standards are non-negotiable
• Knowledge of GDPR and relevant regulatory compliance frameworks

• Employment type:
  
  Full-time contract
