We are seeking a Business Analyst with solid experience in the retail sector to act as a critical link between business needs and Toshiba’s technology solutions, supporting both digital and in-store operations.
The ideal candidate will have an existing understanding of end-to-end retail processes, spanning both front-end customer experience and back-end operations. They will be adept at translating and communicating complex business requirements into clear, actionable specifications, and bring hands-on experience with store operations to help optimise workflows and support digital transformation at the retail level.
This role requires a strategic thinker with a practical mindset—someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, collaborates confidently across teams, and is passionate about driving innovation and continuous improvement in the retail space.

* Elicit, analyse, and document business requirements from stakeholders across retail, technology, and commercial functions to understand operational challenges.
* Translate business needs into clear user stories, process flows, or functional specifications for development teams and third-party partners.
* Apply in-depth knowledge of cash flow, inventory, promotions, and the customer journey to shape practical, effective retail solutions and optimise retail processes.
* Analyse and model existing business processes, identifying areas for improvement using lean principles and process modelling tools (e.g. BPMN, UML).
* Support the design, development and delivery of technology projects across store systems, POS, supply chain, and digital platforms.
* Provide input into project planning and delivery timelines; help ensure solutions are delivered on time, within scope, and to specification.
* Maintain clear, up-to-date documentation and support materials for internal teams and clients.
* Work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure proposed solutions align with both business goals and technical constraints.
