About the Role
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.
This is a visible, senior role that requires someone who can operate independently across business, technology, and delivery teams without hand-holding. You'll be the bridge between stakeholders at all levels and across multiple regions, ensuring requirements are defined, solutions are fit for purpose, and processes remain auditable and compliant.
Due to the high volume of applications expected, candidates who have not received feedback within two weeks of applying should consider their application unsuccessful.
Key Responsibilities
Lead end-to-end requirements definition and documentation across business and technical workstreams
Conduct current-state and target end-state process analysis - identifying gaps, optimisation opportunities, and control weaknesses
Translate business, compliance, and security needs into functional and technical specifications
Collaborate with architects, engineers, and vendors to validate solution designs against business and compliance requirements
Define and document user journeys, workflows, and data models to support process and system design
Perform data reconciliation across systems and sources to ensure accuracy, completeness, and integrity of migrated data
Support testing and validation including functional testing, UAT, and controls verification aligned with internal audit and risk frameworks
Ensure solutions, pilot activities, and data handling align with IT governance, information security policy, and GDPR obligations
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
Capture lessons learned and define exit criteria to support transition from pilot to broader rollout
Requirements
5+ years of business analysis experience across technology-led change initiatives
Strong governance, risk, and control framework knowledge
Experience with system integrations and identity and access management (IAM) governance - required
Proven ability to manage senior stakeholders across multiple regions and drive alignment under competing priorities
Strong data reconciliation and process mapping capability
Comfortable working in Agile and hybrid delivery frameworks
Working knowledge of IAM and directory technologies (AD, Azure AD, SSO, MFA) advantageous
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
Role Details
Employment type: Full-time contract
Location: Cape Town, hybrid (3 days in office, 2 days remote)
