About

Business Analyst (Healthcare) – our client requires a Business Analyst to support the collection, evaluation, and translation of complex business needs into actionable technical specifications, including requirements related to system integration, data exchange, and interoperability across multiple platforms. The resource will work closely with solution architects, delivery teams, and business stakeholders to ensure requirements are accurately captured, validated, and aligned with operational and technical constraints.

The ideal candidate will have experience working within the Canadian health system context, preferably with familiarity with Alberta's health system and its stakeholder environment. Experience working with senior stakeholders in complex, multi‑organization environments are considered an asset. The resource should also demonstrate an understanding of the legislative and regulatory landscape surrounding health information, such as the Health Information Act (HIA), Electronic Health Regulation, or an equivalent Canadian health information framework.

Experience supporting or delivering solutions involving system integration, data exchange, or interoperability between clinical and/or administrative systems is considered an asset. Strong written and verbal communication skills are essential, as the role requires the clear articulation of complex concepts to diverse technical and non‑technical audiences.

Resource will work remotely but must be available to be on‑site when requested for meetings. Standard hours of work are 8 hours per day. Work must be done from within Canada, due to network and data security issues. Resource is responsible to pay for travel to on‑site meetings.
