Are we right for you...
We’re passionate about people and creating sustainable, safe and affordable solutions to BC. We are an organization that has a People First approach and considers people first in every business decision that we make. We are part of the solution and what we do matters; from fighting climate change with battery electric buses, to affordability through cost-effective transportation, to connecting remote communities, we bring the heart, soul and innovation to public transportation.

It’s an exciting time to be in the transit industry and we’re looking for creative and passionate people to join our team. Not only would you be joining an engaged organization, but you’d also get to enjoy flexible work arrangements, extended benefits and a pension plan as just a few of the benefits BC Transit employees are eligible for.

What you'll be doing...
Reporting to the Supervisor, Technology Projects, the Senior Business Analyst’s role is to partner with the business to identify and prioritize business and solution requirements for technology projects. This role focuses on technology projects for operations, requiring a strong understanding of core functions within transit operations, such as maintenance and dispatch.

The Senior Business Analyst uses a variety of methods and techniques to interview stakeholders, translate business needs into user stories and requirements, and relay those requirements to technology teams and vendors. Our users rely on our business analyst team to make sense of technology and give them confidence that projects will deliver the desired business benefits.

The Senior Business Analyst manages the requirements throughout the project and, once solutions are delivered, develops testing strategies, writes test cases, supports user testing, and works with the project manager to confirm user acceptance.

This role is people-focused, relying on systems thinking, analysis skills, strong communication, and developing trusting relationships with colleagues throughout the organization. You should be able to make complex ideas simple, easily build relationships with people in multiple departments, work collaboratively with diverse team members, and propose recommendations to solve complex problems.

While this position does not have direct reports, as a senior member of the team, other business analysts will seek mentorship, guidance, and support from this role. As a newer team, we are also refining our processes and enhancing the maturity of our practices. The leadership team will rely on this role to help define best practices and identify improvement opportunities.

What you'll bring to the table...

  • Completion of a degree in Computer Science, Business, or related discipline, or an equivalent combination of education, training and experience.
  • Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) or equivalent training & certification.
  • PMI membership (or membership with a recognized Project Management body) would be considered an asset.

We’ve also found people with the following past experience to be extremely successful:

  • Progressive experience throughout your career as a Business Analyst, with at least 2 years’ experience leading business analysis processes within a large organization as a Senior Business Analyst on IT projects.
  • Demonstrated experience establishing and implementing Business Analysis methodologies, processes, and templates within your organization.
  • Knowledge of and experience working within project management principles as defined by the Project Management Institute (PMI).
  • Knowledge of and demonstrated application of business analysis standards of practice as defined by the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA).
  • Experience in overseeing the design, development, and implementation of software and hardware solutions, systems, or products.
  • Ability to partner with the business to develop user stories and requirements, explain complex principles in common language, create process maps and user journey maps, and support testing activities.

What we'll bring to the table...

  • Comprehensive medical and dental benefits to support you and your family, regardless of what life throws at you.
  • Membership in a “gold plated” defined benefit pension plan, meaning it’s the best in the Province and one of the best in the country; putting you in a strong position when it comes time to retire.
  • Access to fitness and lifestyle centers to help you take care of your physical fitness and health.
  • Various programs that support employees such as an Employee Assistance Program and health and wellness initiatives and events aimed at fostering your mental health.
  • A complimentary employee bus pass (plus two taxable dependent passes).
  • A corporate learning and development program to help you in continuous career growth.
  • An employee recognition program where we all recognize each other's successes (not just your Leaders).
  • A social club that gives you access to events throughout Victoria.

What next steps could look like...

  • Interviews will be conducted September 16th to 18th.
  • An assignment may form part of the recruitment process and will be sent to shortlisted applicants in conjunction with their interview invites.
  • The position requires the completion of a Criminal Record Check or Vulnerable Sector Search.
  • If you have a disability that requires an accommodation during any stage of our recruitment process, please let us know how we can assist you.
  • BC Transit is committed to providing access, equal opportunity and reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities. If the organization identifies this position as a reasonable accommodation for an existing employee, all candidates will be notified as soon as reasonably possible.

At BC Transit, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace; if you’re excited about this role and you have a combination of education and experience that you feel would fulfill its requirements, we encourage you to apply. In keeping with this belief, we do not discriminate on any basis. Should you require any accommodation or have questions, please let us know.
