Business Operations Automation Analyst

Business Operations Automation Analyst

Company: Oryx Ltd.

Employment: Full-time

Reports to: Managing Partner

Department: ICT

Oryx Ltd. is a family office with a global investment mandate spanning private equity, venture capital, public markets, real estate, and alternative investments. The group’s primary focus is the USA and the GCC, with additional exposure across the UK, Europe, and select global markets. It operates through specialist subsidiaries and takes a principal-led, long-term approach to building and managing assets.

This is a rare opportunity to shape how a sophisticated, fast-moving organisation operates at its core.

Reporting directly to the Managing Partner, the Business Operations Automation Analyst will work systematically across the business — embedding with each team, capturing how work actually gets done, and translating that into a structured company knowledge base of documented roles, processes, and SOPs. Once that foundation is in place, you will layer automation on top: reducing manual effort, improving consistency, and freeing people to focus on higher-value work.

This is an execution role, not a strategy role. Direction and prioritisation come from the Managing Partner. What this role demands is the discipline to document thoroughly, the interpersonal skill to earn trust across departments, and the technical curiosity to ask “can this be automated?” at every turn.

You will work department by department, building something cumulative — a living operational reference that grows more valuable with every iteration.

Discovery & Knowledge Capture

•       Embed with each team and function in turn, conducting structured interviews and workflow observations to understand how work is actually performed

•       Translate discoveries into clear, accurate SOPs, role guides, process maps, and reference documentation — written for the people who will use them, not for filing away

•       Build and maintain a centralised company knowledge base that serves as the operational backbone of the organisation

Process Documentation & Standardisation

•       Develop consistent documentation standards and templates used across all departments

•       Ensure every documented process is version-controlled, accessible, and kept current as the business evolves

•       Identify gaps, redundancies, and inefficiencies surfaced during documentation; flag these to the Managing Partner with practical recommendations

Automation & Tool Optimisation

•       Once a process is documented and understood, assess it for automation potential

•       Implement workflow automations using existing tools — Asana, Slack, Airtable, Microsoft 365, Power Automate — before recommending new ones

•       Assist staff directly with automation: build the workflows with them, not just for them

Reporting & Visibility

•       Develop simple, clear reporting frameworks that give the Managing Partner visibility into operational performance across departments

•       Track progress of the documentation and automation programme; surface blockers early

Training & Adoption

•       Support staff in adopting new processes and tools through hands-on training and practical documentation

•       Make it easy for people to follow the new systems — friction kills adoption
