You will translate complex workforce questions into structured analyses, actionable insights, and executive narratives that influence hiring strategy, workforce planning, talent retention, and organizational health. While this role partners across all P&C Centers of Excellence (including Total Rewards, Talent Development, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, and HR Operations), your primary focus will be serving as the dedicated analytics partner to Talent Acquisition (TA) and People Business Partners (PBPs). You will analyze end-to-end talent acquisition funnels, headcount movement, and talent pipeline health to uncover trends, optimize recruiting efficiency and quality, and empower business leaders with data-driven decision-making. If you thrive in translating ambiguity into structured insights, approaching employee experience with a product mindset, and leveraging modern analytics and AI tools to maximize impact, this role is for you. #LI-Remote What Your Responsibilities Will Be: Strategic Business Partnering & Insight Delivery * Partner directly with Talent Acquisition leaders, People Business Partners, and functional business leaders to understand talent priorities, diagnose business problems, and deliver high-impact workforce analytics. * Provide priority analytical support to Talent Acquisition, monitoring full-funnel recruiting metrics (sourcing effectiveness, time-to-fill/hire, pass-through conversion rates, candidate experience, hiring quality, and recruiter capacity). * Partner closely with PBPs to provide holistic talent insights across the employee lifecycle, connecting hiring trends to retention, turnover drivers, promotion velocity, performance, and organizational design. * Collaborate with other P&C Centers of Excellence (Total Rewards, Talent Development, DE&I, HR Operations) to ensure cohesive, cross-functional people insights and strategic alignment. * Translate ambiguous questions and anecdotal feedback into rigorous, structured hypotheses, investigative analyses, and clear business narratives. Data Analysis & Storytelling * Query, manipulate, and analyze complex People and recruiting datasets using SQL, BI visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI), and statistical methods. * Conduct deep dive data analyses to uncover the root causes ("the why") behind performance shifts, hiring bottlenecks, attrition trends and other areas across the employee lifecycle. * Design and deliver compelling data stories, executive presentations, and self-service dashboards tailored for diverse audiences, ranging from operational teams to executive leadership. Data Governance, Standardization & Product Thinking * Champion high standards for data integrity, governance, and consistency across all People and Talent data sources (ATS, HRIS, CRM, engagement platforms). * Standardize core metrics, calculations, and definitions to maintain a single source of truth across P&C reporting and analytics toolkits. * Treat analytics and employee experience as a product and apply design thinking, iterative feedback loops, user journeys, and agile enablement to ensure tools and insights are widely adopted and drive action. * Champion the use of modern AI tools in the daily flow of work to accelerate research, data synthesis, query optimization, and insight generation. ## Related Videos - [Beyond Dashboards: Fixing Text-to-SQL with Semantic RAG](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2036-beyond-dashboards-fixing-text-to-sql-with-semantic-rag) - [Destigmatizing the Workplace: Building Real Inclusion](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1492-destigmatizing-the-workplace-building-real-inclusion) - [Data Science on Software Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/162-data-science-on-software-data) - [Building Talent Acquisitions Teams](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1496-building-talent-acquisitions-teams) - [Beyond Gut Feelings: The Rise of Data-Driven HR](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1326-beyond-gut-feelings-the-rise-of-data-driven-hr) - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE - How DevRel Makes Tech More Human](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2149-wearedevelopers-live-how-devrel-makes-tech-more-human) ## Related Articles - [Data Analyst Salary in the UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/278-data-analyst-salary-in-the-uk) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou - Making AI understandable for all in production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/475-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou-making-ai-understandable-for-all-in-production) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Top HR Tech Conferences in 2024](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/303-top-hr-tech-conferences-in-2024) - [Data Analyst Salary Germany](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/277-data-analyst-salary-germany) - [Data Analyst Salary Austria](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/275-data-analyst-salary-austria)
