YOUR MISSIONServe as the analytics backbone for our People team - turning people data into clear, confident decisions. This role partners directly with People Business Partners (PBPs) to deliver the insights, dashboards, and data integrity they need to support a fast-moving, growing organization. It's a hands-on, build-it-from-the-ground-up role - not a maintenance position - suited for someone with 3-5 years of HR analytics experience who can operate with autonomy, earn trust quickly, and bring structure to ambiguity. You'll own the quality of our people data end-to-end, while also being the go-to analytical resource for People across the business.
RESPONSIBILITIES Partner with People Business Partners - Serve as the primary analytics resource for People Business Partners (PBPs), helping them answer workforce questions quickly and accurately.
- Translate business questions from PBPs and leadership into clearly scoped data requests and analytical projects.
- Proactively surface trends, risks, and opportunities in people data before they're asked for.
- Communicate findings in plain language - through presentations, written summaries, and one-on-one consultations.
Own People Data Integrity - Take end-to-end ownership of the accuracy and completeness of people data across People systems (HRIS, performance tools, engagement platforms).
- Design and implement data quality checks, audit processes, and reconciliation routines to catch and correct errors.
- Establish and enforce data entry standards and governance protocols across People workflows.
- Partner with IT and People Ops to diagnose and resolve upstream data issues in pipelines and integrations.
- Maintain clear documentation of data definitions, sources, logic, and known limitations.
Build Reporting & Dashboards - Design and maintain core People dashboards covering headcount, attrition, DEI metrics, compensation, and engagement.
- Automate recurring reports so PBPs spend less time pulling data and more time acting on it.
- Fulfill ad hoc data requests - from quick lookups to multi-variable analyses - with speed and accuracy.
- Create self-serve data products that empower PBPs and managers to answer their own questions.
Drive Analytics & Insight - Apply descriptive, diagnostic, and predictive analysis to support strategic People initiatives (e.g., retention risk, hiring forecasting, workforce planning).
- Support survey design and analysis - engagement, exit, onboarding, and pulse surveys.
- Evaluate the effectiveness of People programs using data and help quantify their business impact.
- Stay current on People analytics best practices and bring new methods to the team as we scale.
Required - 3-5 years of experience in HR analytics, people analytics, or a closely related data role.
- Proficiency in SQL and at least one BI/visualization tool (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Looker).
- Hands-on experience with an HRIS platform (e.g., Workday, BambooHR, Rippling, UKG) and familiarity with its data structures.
- Demonstrated ability to own data quality - not just report on data, but actively improve it.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to present complex analysis to non-technical audiences.
- Highly organized, with a track record of managing multiple requests and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
Nice to Have - Experience with Python or R for analysis and automation.
- Familiarity with HR tech integrations and data pipelines (e.g., Power Automate).
