How can I keep from being redundant with this? I need some ideas other than "highly sensitive business sense." :)

highly sensitive business acumen, very acute business sense
I agree, 'Highly sensitive business sense' sounds redundant.
How about,
"highly sensitive business acumen"
"very acute sense for business"
If you play around with it, I'm sure you can find something that relays the proper meaning, but avoids doubling up on 'sense' words.

| Ooh. "Acute" is nice! Now I'm going to have a hard time choosing. |

Comment: "Well, this was a difficult choice. Obviously all answers are correct, and it is simply a matter of personal preference. Since Troy taught me a new word (acumen), I'm going to go with his answer. I am actually using a combination of Troy's and Kathy's answers (fine-tuned business acumen). I also appreciate Yuki's answer. Thanks, everybody!"

actually - the original Japanese is in itself ダブってる a bit...
Perhaps you don't need to worry too much about the redundancy.
Any more context?
Is this "sensitive" as in sensitive financial secrets? If so, then my answer is on the wrong track.
Anyway, HTH a little...

Note from asker:
| Actually, finely-tuned sounds great. "Sensitive" refers to being aware of changes in the market, so you're on the right track. |

business-savvy, keen sense for business, sophisticated business sense ...
Just to throw some other alternatives.
"Sophisticated" is a little away from the original, but for this phrase, it is more important that whoever is referred to sounds like a good business person than the translation is accurate.
