Introduction
Transport for NSW is recruiting two Business Analysts to work across public transport, customer and tolling systems. The work connects operational problems with the requirements that architects, engineers and delivery teams need to build reliable solutions.
This is an experienced business analysis role. Strong examples will show how you explored an existing process, clarified competing needs and turned that analysis into a change that worked in practice.
This checklist explains how to apply for Business Analyst opportunities at this level. Start with the official vacancy and role description, then use the guidance below to choose evidence that matches the work.

Candidate requirements and evidence for Business Analyst
| Business operations and improvement | Describe an inefficient process you investigated, how you established the underlying problem and what changed as a result. |
| Requirements and modelling | Explain how you produced usable requirements, process or data models, user stories and acceptance criteria. Include how you checked them with the people who would use or deliver the solution. |
| Agile delivery | Show your contribution to backlog refinement, testing, defect decisions or release readiness, and how you kept analysis useful under delivery deadlines. |
| Complex transport environments | Use an example involving several operational and technology teams. Explain how you resolved different expectations and made technical decisions understandable. |
Example application structure for Business Analyst
Lead with your business operations and analysis experience. Develop one example from discovery through to an implemented outcome, then a second example showing how you worked with delivery teams. Distinguish your own decisions from the wider team’s work and use results you can substantiate.
Before you submit
Check that your evidence covers both operational understanding and technical delivery. Confirm the upload requirements in the recruitment form, use the current role description, and submit before 11:59 pm on 23 October. Qualifications should be described accurately without presenting desirable credentials as a compulsory eligibility rule.
