Current Opportunity: Graduate Business Analyst
Aurizon is seeking a motivated Graduate Business Analyst to join our Bulk & Containerised Freight Commercial team, supporting the analysis, reporting and improvement of commercial and customer outcomes across our containerised and bulk freight operations.
In this role, you will provide analytical and business support to the team, assisting with data analysis, reporting, and insights that inform commercial decision‑making, pricing, and service delivery. You will also support commercial and sales activities, including preparing customer proposals, tender responses and marketing material that communicate value to customers.
You will work closely with commercial managers, sales and marketing teams, and a broad range of internal stakeholders to support projects, improve processes, and help translate business and customer requirements into practical, customer‑focused outcomes.
You will gain exposure to Aurizon’s bulk and containerised freight services, customer interactions, commercial drivers, and sales processes, alongside the interfaces between customers, operations and the wider business. The role offers hands‑on experience in a fast‑paced, complex environment while building a strong foundation in business analysis, commercial acumen and customer‑focused marketing support.
About You
You are in your final year of a degree and ready to step into a career as a Business Analyst, Commercial Specialist or Sales leader. Your studies are aligned to disciplines such as Business, Commerce, Finance, Economics, Marketing or Supply Chain, with a strong interest in how organisations drive customer value and commercial outcomes. You desire to work in a dynamic commercial and marketing environment where your insights directly influence business success.
This is a business-facing role, focused on commercial insights, sales performance and customer outcomes — it is not a technical, IT or software development role, and does not involve coding or advanced data science.
You have a strong interest in how data informs commercial decision-making—particularly in areas like pricing, market strategy, and customer engagement. In this role, you will partner closely with our sales teams to translate complex data into practical insights, providing the strategic recommendations they need to win deals and increase revenue.
You bring strong attention to detail, developing analytical and problem-solving skills, and clear communication skills. You are comfortable working with stakeholders and presenting insights in a way that is relevant to a commercial audience.
You will ideally have an interest in, or exposure to, areas such as:
- Supporting the sales team with customer proposals, tenders and bid responses
- Developing presentations and marketing materials
- Interpreting commercial data to inform sales and customer outcomes
- Assisting with pricing, value propositions and go-to-market initiatives
You are proactive, organised and adaptable, with a willingness to contribute across a mix of commercial, analytical and customer-facing activities.
At Aurizon, we support the development and growth of our employees. With a national portfolio of operations, we offer long-term and exciting career opportunities.
