Business Analyst

VIC - Melbourne, CBD & Inner Suburbs Full time

Job Description:

Better and fairer care.  Always.

St Vincent's has been a leader in Australia's health and aged care landscape for more than 165 years. Since our founders, the Sisters of Charity, opened our first hospital in 1857, our services and nearly 30,000 people have been behind some of Australia's most important medical breakthroughs. We are a microcosm of Australia’s health and aged care system and are uniquely positioned to lead and respond to our rapidly changing environment.

We are looking for a special kind of person - a St Vincent’s kind of person. Someone who puts excellence, compassion, connection and caring for other people at the heart of everything they do. 

We are looking for a Senior Business Analyst for a 6-month engagement with deep experience in healthcare environments and a proven ability to elicit, structure, and document complex requirements to support Platform Assessment, RFP and procurement activities.

This role sits at the centre of a major transformation initiative and will partner closely with stakeholders to ensure business needs are clearly defined, documented, and translated into actionable procurement inputs.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead requirements elicitation across clinical, operational, and technical stakeholders
  • Produce high-quality business requirements, functional specs, process maps, and user journeys
  • Support development of RFP documentation, including detailed requirement sets and evaluation criteria
  • Conduct current state analysis and gap assessments, particularly against compliance standards
  • Facilitate workshops to define business needs, constraints, and success measures
  • Translate requirements into vendor evaluation artefacts (e.g. scoring matrices, use cases)
  • Support UAT definition and acceptance criteria aligned to procurement outcomes
  • Build strong stakeholder relationships across facilities, executives, and D&T teams

What You Will Bring

  • 5–7+ years as a Business Analyst in healthcare (acute, sub-acute, or aged care)
  • Extensive experience in requirements gathering for large-scale or complex system initiatives
  • Proven capability supporting or leading RFP processes and procurement documentation
  • Strong skills in process modelling, business case input, and data analysis
  • Experience working across multi-site, multi-stakeholder environments
  • Excellent communication skills—able to engage frontline clinicians through to executives

Highly Regarded

  • Experience working on compliance or regulatory-driven programs
  • Exposure to aged care systems or standards
  • Certifications such as CBAP, PRINCE2, or similar

What works for you:

  • Ability to visibly see your impact on the business and its service
  • Competitive salary packaging options
  • Discounted private health insurance
  • Employee Assistance Program for staff and their families
  • Access to the Fitness Passport (FP)

At St Vincent’s we value inclusivity and diversity and acknowledge the importance of creating a work environment that is welcoming, safe, fair and impartial and invites people from all backgrounds to join us.
