Role Responsibilities

Are you someone who sees complexity and wants to simplify it? As a Business Analyst, you’ll play a critical role in improving how our Traffic Safety Services Division delivers essential services that Albertans rely on—like driver licensing, transportation safety, and public access to programs. Whether you’re leading a project or refining a key process, your work will contribute to more efficient government operations and better experiences for the people we serve.

In this role, you’ll support and lead divisional projects from planning through to implementation. Drawing on your skills in business analysis, process design, and continuous improvement, you’ll ensure that the Division’s work is efficient, aligned with legislative and policy requirements, and user focused. Reporting to the Business Operations and Modernization Manager and collaborating with Senior Business Advisors and team members across the organization, you’ll help bridge strategy and execution. You'll translate complex needs into clear solutions, ensure smooth change adoption, and support lasting improvements in how government services operate.

Your Key Responsibilities Include

  • Leading projects from inception to completion, ensuring outcomes align with Divisional goals and deliver measurable improvements.
  • Developing project documentation such as business cases, work plans, risk assessments, implementation plans, and post-project reviews.
  • Facilitating stakeholder engagement sessions to elicit business needs, and translating findings into clear documentation, such as process maps and user guides.
  • Redesigning workflows using Lean Six Sigma principles to increase clarity, eliminate inefficiencies, and improve service delivery.
  • Coordinating change management and training activities that prepare users for new processes, tools, or technologies.
  • Supporting business applications by assisting with user acceptance testing (UAT), maintenance planning, and troubleshooting.
  • Ensuring business requirements are captured and reflected in system or process design, with attention to legislation, policy, and user needs.
  • Collaborating across branches, divisions, and external partners to build consensus and maintain progress on complex, multi-stakeholder projects.
