Ko Mātou – About Us
Kia Hanga I Te Ao, E Ora Ai, E Tupu Ai, Te Tangata Me Te Kainga. At ANZ, we’re shaping a world where people and communities thrive, driven by a common goal: to improve the financial wellbeing and sustainability of our millions of customers.

We’re looking for a confident and experienced Lead Business Analyst to join ANZ’s Delivery & Change Centre of Excellence, where you will play a pivotal role in supporting a portfolio of strategic, high-impact initiatives across the bank. Your initial assignment will be in the finance stream of Nga Tapuwae, a key programme of work that’s driving real change across the organisation.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working in complex environments, can bring people on the journey, and has strong business analysis skills – especially in finance or tax-related work. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.
Mō te tūranga - About the role
As a Lead Business Analyst, you’ll be responsible for delivering high-quality business analysis across your project or programme. You’ll work with a wide range of stakeholders to understand their needs, gather and manage requirements, and make sure the analysis outputs are clear, consistent, and support successful delivery.
You’ll also be leading other BAs, helping to guide their work and keep everything on track. This includes ensuring documentation meets our standards and that deadlines are met.
We’re looking for someone who’s confident leading analysis end-to-end, can think strategically, has strong stakeholder management skills, and who genuinely enjoys working with people to solve problems.
Banking is changing and we’re changing with it, giving our people great opportunities to try new things, learn and grow. Whatever your role at ANZ, you’ll be building your future, while helping to build ours.
