The Delivery Capability team at New Zealand Police is seeking to appoint an experienced Senior Business Analyst to help shape the future of policing in Aotearoa. This is a fixed term position to 30 June 2026, but part of a multi year programme. An extension is highly likely.

This role plays a critical part in delivering transformation and change initiatives across Police, ensuring our organisation is well positioned to achieve its strategic intent. You will engage with operational groups, senior leaders, external agencies, and partners to analyse business needs, define requirements, and design processes that deliver real value to frontline staff and communities.
