Business Analyst Lead

Business Analyst LeadThe Opportunity:In a Zero Trust world, where every interaction must be continuously verified, business processes matter just as much as technical controls. You know that behind every system, policy, identity, or data flow is a mission-critical workflow that determines whether Zero Trust succeeds or fails. As a Zero Trust Business Analyst, you bridge the gap between enterprise and cybersecurity—ensuring that decisions are not just secure, but aligned with how the mission actually works. We’re looking for someone like you to help clients modernize their processes, close visibility gaps, and bring Zero Trust principles to life across the enterprise.As a Business Analyst at Booz Allen, you’ll help organizations understand how their mission workflows actually operate by mapping end‑to‑end processes, and analyzing dependencies across Zero Trust pillars. You’ll support team efforts by monitoring progress against Zero Trust workstreams, coordinating with engineering and cyber teams, and ensuring requirements, risks, and decisions are accurately reflected across dashboards and status reports. You’ll dive into process documentation and project artifacts—everything from SOPs and architecture diagrams to test plans and client deliverables—to distill what’s working, what isn’t, and what needs to evolve as clients mature their Zero Trust posture. Your work ensures Zero Trust transformations don’t break the mission they are meant to protect.You’ll analyze operational workflows, validate user journeys, and examine how business processes intersect with authentication, authorization, and continuous verification requirements. You’ll assess data flows, review system and process documentation, and evaluate project artifacts to uncover gaps that impact Zero Trust alignment. By partnering with mission owners, engineers, and cyber strategists, you’ll translate operational insights into clear, actionable steps that support modernization efforts, strengthen enterprise resilience, and enable secure, efficient mission execution.Join us.
