Overview

The Ministry of Primary and Preventative Health Services is seeking one (1) Senior IT Technical Business Analyst for an initial term of twenty-four (24) months, with the option to extend for an additional twelve (12) months. This role will provide advanced business analysis, technical requirements management, and solution support expertise for priority initiatives across the Ministry.

The Senior IT Technical Business Analyst will support the collection, evaluation, and translation of complex business needs into actionable technical specifications, including requirements related to system integration, data exchange, and interoperability across multiple platforms. The resource will work closely with solution architects, delivery teams, and business stakeholders to ensure requirements are accurately captured, validated, and aligned with operational and technical constraints across integrated environments.

The successful candidate will play a key role in reducing delivery risk by ensuring that requirements, processes, data flows, and solution expectations are clearly defined and understood across both business and technical streams.

The resource should also demonstrate an understanding of the legislative and regulatory landscape surrounding health information, such as the Health Information Act (HIA), Electronic Health Regulation, or an equivalent Canadian health information framework.

Experience supporting or delivering solutions involving system integration, data exchange, or interoperability between clinical and/or administrative systems is considered an asset. Strong written and verbal communication skills are essential, as the role requires the clear articulation of complex concepts to diverse technical and non-technical audiences.

The resource will be assigned to multiple concurrent initiatives, including modernization efforts, process improvements, system replacements, and enhancements to existing digital health and administrative systems.
