Insight, Data & Reporting Analyst

About the role

As our Insight, Data & Reporting Analyst, you will provide meaningful insights from our People & Culture data to support strategic decision-making across both the department and the wider organisation. You will work closely with stakeholders to understand reporting requirements, the business outcomes they drive, and to deliver high-quality outputs within a complex, fast-paced environment.

Alongside producing reporting and insights, you will develop data tools that support and inform key activities across the employee lifecycle. A key focus of the role will be identifying and surfacing people-data discrepancies and contributing to the development of efficient processes to address them. This is an important aspect of the role that will unlock the delivery of insights that inform strategic decision-making.

You’ll bring experience working with MHR iTrent and SAP Business Objects, along with strong Excel skills. Experience with Power BI and SQL would be an advantage.

About you

To succeed in this role, you will demonstrate strong experience with iTrent and Business Objects, as well as the ability to present complex reporting and insights to non-technical audiences. This role may suit professionals with a systems-analyst background who have strong data experience and are looking to progress into a people-data-focused career path.

You will show a genuine interest in people data, staying informed about emerging trends and technologies and how they can be applied to our processes and responsibilities. You will be comfortable working cross-functionally with minimal supervision and able to adapt to shifting priorities in a fast-paced environment.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join us at the beginning of an exciting transformation, helping shape a sophisticated, insight-led People & Culture service for the future. You’ll play a key role in building the tools, processes and reporting capabilities that will directly influence decision-making across the organisation, with real scope to deliver with impact from day one.

How to apply

To apply please submit your CV and cover letter (maximum of 2 sides of A4) which should clearly demonstrate your experience working with people data, systems and reporting tools with examples of how you’ve used insights to support business decisions, as well as your experience of using iTrent and SAP Business Objects.
