Position Overview

We are seeking a mid‑level Systems Analyst / Business Analyst to join Merrithew’s Digital Technology team on a 6‑month contract, with the possibility of extension based on business needs and performance. Reporting to the VP of Digital Technology, this role partners across the organization to understand how work gets done today and to produce clear, consistent documentation that strengthens alignment, decision‑making, and future improvement efforts. This is a documentation‑centric engagement focused on capturing and standardizing cross‑functional workflows, clarifying ownership and handoffs, and translating operational reality into high‑quality process and requirements artifacts. Success is defined by the quality, clarity, and completeness of the documentation and analysis deliverables produced within the contract term.

Major Responsibilities

• Lead discovery with stakeholders across functions to understand end‑to‑end workflows, decision points, pain areas, and success measures for assigned initiatives.
• Create clear workflow and handoff representations using standard methods (e.g., swim lanes, SIPOC, RACI, BPMN, or equivalent) to enable shared understanding and sign‑off.
• Deliver documentation artifacts for assigned workstreams, including current and future workflow maps, narrative process documents, and ownership models.
• Identify gaps, bottlenecks, workarounds, data issues, and control weaknesses, then translate findings into practical, prioritised recommendations.
• Translate stakeholder needs into structured, testable requirements and acceptance criteria that inform future solution design and delivery.
• Collaborate with software developers, systems analysts, and infrastructure teams to validate that documentation reflects true system behaviour and operational reality.
• Ensure documentation is consistent, version‑controlled, and prepared for stakeholder review and approval.
• Facilitate cross‑functional alignment on responsibilities and handoffs when workflows span multiple teams.
• Apply a risk‑aware lens to analysis, highlighting security, compliance, auditability, and data integrity considerations.
• Track progress against contract milestones, escalating risks and blockers to the VP of Digital Technology.
