VCA is made up of three services lines - Advisory, Data Science and Implementation Services, the latter being the execution arm of VCA. Our Implementation Services teams (also known as squads) are embedded on client sites leading long-term engagements and delivering value primarily through implementation and execution services. We deliver objectives from a shared value agenda but are also closely connected to the broader VCA team, sharing knowledge, and bringing the best of Visa to the client.

We are looking for a dedicated Senior Manager for the role of Technical Business Analyst, embedded with one of our valued clients based in Auckland. This role is a 24-month fixed-term contract.

As a Technical Business Analyst, this role will be responsible for:

• Identifying and analysing requirements for new go-to-market digital solutions, some of which will be the first in New Zealand.
• Providing people leadership for the new, multidisciplinary development squad, currently being formed.

Key responsibilities include:

• Business Analysis
• Apply a robust toolkit of business analysis techniques to understand organisational context and deliver fit-for-purpose solutions.
• Lead the analysis and synthesis of business and data requirements, translating them into actionable technical specifications for new digital features and products.
• Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders to define scope, support API integrations, and ensure alignment with client goals and user needs.
• Facilitate clear and effective communication of requirements across technical and non-technical teams.
• Lead the development squad to deliver go-to-market Visa solutions within agreed timeframes and constraints.
• Team Leadership & Execution
• Provide inspirational leadership to the squad, fostering a high-performing, diverse, and engaged team culture.
• Set clear objectives, manage delivery timelines, and ensure quality outcomes through agile practices and sprint planning.
• Enable team members to operate at their sustainable best, offering career development and tailored learning opportunities.
• Drive accountability and address performance issues promptly and constructively.

This role will support a strategic and multi-dimensional client in New Zealand as a member of a growing team at Visa. This role ensures the delivery of safe, secure payments by developing robust compliance plans. It builds customer trust and protects the organisation from financial loss due to non-compliance.
