Description

What’s the Role: The Lead Business Analyst will lead the end‑to‑end business analysis for Westpac’s SRDE Migration Program, overseeing a team across multiple workstreams to deliver the migration of regulatory‑critical credit risk and reporting workloads from legacy SAS to a cloud platform, while ensuring data integrity, regulatory compliance and unchanged business outcomes. Key Responsibilities: Lead end‑to‑end business analysis across the SRDE Migration Program, covering target state platform, business outcome migration, data migration and decommissioning. Define and manage complex business, functional and non‑functional requirements, ensuring traceability through design, testing and deployment. Oversee data mapping, lineage and reconciliation to ensure migrated outcomes align with legacy SAS 9.4 and meet regulatory requirements. Partner closely with senior stakeholders, credit risk SMEs and technology teams, translating complex technical concepts into clear business outcomes. Lead, mentor and govern a team of Business Analysts across multiple squads, ensuring consistent quality and delivery standards. Support Agile delivery, testing, risk and regulatory compliance to ensure stable business outcomes throughout phased migration and implementation. What do I need? Strong background in Business Analysis within Financial Services, ideally across Credit Risk or Risk & Compliance domains. Proven experience leading business analysis on large‑scale technology, data or platform migration programs with multiple workstreams. Deep understanding of credit risk concepts including RWA, IFRS9/ECL and regulatory reporting obligations. Experience working with banking regulatory frameworks and standards such as APS reporting and BCBS 239. Strong technical capability across data migration, including legacy SAS environments, SQL, cloud platforms and data warehousing technologies. Proficient in Agile delivery, BA tooling and methodologies, with experience using Jira, Confluence, testing tools and process modelling techniques. Why join us?
