We’d all like amazing work to do, and real work-life balance. That’s waiting for you at Sainsbury’s. Here, everything in our stores starts out in Food Commercial. Whether it’s the product, proposition, packaging or price, or the fact that something tastes great, our team is responsible for all food items available in store, digitally and on demand. You’ll discover it’s incredibly fast-paced.
People here are in it together and not afraid to take risks. They’re enthusiastic too, and their amazing leadership team is right behind them. The knowledge and experience you gain here could set you up for career moves, anywhere else in the business. So, if you’re passionate about food and just as hungry to learn, you’ll fit in perfectly.
You’ll join the Commercial Transformation team at Sainsbury’s, working at the centre of a multiyear programme transforming core commercial systems and processes with SAP. Starting with Food Pricing and Promotions, the team is removing barriers created by legacy systems to unlock simpler, more effective ways of working that deliver real value for customers and colleagues.
This is a critical role to ensure we are building our future ways of working that meet our current and future needs. Partnering with our business users, process owners and technology partners, you will be responsible for creating seamless processes that deliver real customer and operational value.
More about the roleAs a Business Process Analyst, you’ll lead end-to-end process design across key commercial capabilities, translating operational needs and operating models into clear, resilient and scalable future‑state processes. You’ll act as a bridge between business users and technology teams, facilitating workshops, shaping business clocks and aligning process designs to technical and architectural solutions.
You’ll identify and design for risk and process variance, define critical KPIs, support prioritisation of improvement and automation opportunities, and contribute to UAT scenario design. You’ll ensure documentation is maintained to enterprise standards, governance processes are followed, and progress, risks and benefits are clearly communicated throughout delivery and post‑implementation.

You’re an excellent facilitator, able to get to the root cause of problems at pace and apply sound judgement on the level of detail required to drive decisions.
You’re confident engaging with technical designs, linking solutions to real operational impact, and moving seamlessly between detail and the bigger picture. Curious and improvement‑focused, you challenge the status quo, communicate clearly with diverse audiences and take ownership for simplifying processes and improving outcomes for colleagues and customers.
- Proven experience in business analysis or end‑to‑end process design within a complex organisation.
- Strong facilitation skills, able to drive alignment and decision‑making across stakeholders.
