Rest’s Data, Technology and Delivery (DTD) business unit is accountable for planning and preparing the organisation for the future through strategic technology innovation, as well as charting our business strategy and executing for today and tomorrow. Situated in the Business Analysis Practice, the Senior Business Analyst has two main priorities:

2. Ensuring the product/platform/project team have a shared understanding of the requirements, through written and verbal communication.

• Deliver clearly defined requirements and user stories that accurately capture business systems, processes, and user needs by employing rigorous analysis, validation, and mapping techniques to drive successful project outcomes.
• Achieve business alignment and informed decision-making by engaging, negotiating, and prioritizing stakeholder requirements, resulting in a solid foundation for solution development.
• Facilitate shared understanding and streamlined processes by creating actionable, visually driven models and documentation—using techniques like process and story mapping—that translate complex logic and process flows into clear business rules.
• Maximize project impact and strategic value by managing a dynamic requirements lifecycle that prioritizes critical functionality based on complexity, feasibility, and overall business value.

• Proven track record leading complex regulatory and platform change initiatives within an investment environment, spanning requirements elicitation, UAT oversight, implementation governance, and post-implementation validation.
