## Description

The Operations Business Analyst reports to Recovery Operations and serves as a shared analytical resource across Recovery Operations, Operational Excellence, and Finance. This role uses business analysis, operational data, and Power BI to identify performance changes, bottlenecks, discrepancies, risks, and opportunities that require action.

You will build and maintain operational dashboards that make business performance visible, but the role goes well beyond reporting. You will investigate what the data is telling us, determine why performance is changing, identify where processes or results are breaking down, and provide clear, actionable insights that help business leaders determine where action is needed.

The ideal candidate combines strong business judgment with hands-on analytical capability. You can build a Power BI dashboard, but more importantly, you know what to look for, what questions to ask, and how to turn what you find into meaningful business insight.

What You'll Do

Identify Performance Issues & Opportunities

 * Monitor operational and financial performance to identify bottlenecks, discrepancies, trends, risks, and emerging opportunities.
 * Analyze productivity, inventory quality, throughput, recovery performance, capacity, cycle time, and financial results.
 * Conduct root-cause analysis to understand why performance is improving, declining, or deviating from expectations.
 * Identify issues that may require operational, process, workflow, or technology changes.
 * Translate findings into clear, actionable insights for business leaders.

Build Performance Visibility

 * Develop and maintain Power BI dashboards and reports that provide meaningful visibility into business performance.
 * Define, monitor, and analyze KPIs that measure operational effectiveness and financial outcomes.
 * Analyze data across multiple sources to identify discrepancies, relationships, and performance drivers.
 * Improve reporting consistency, data quality, and metric integrity.
 * Develop focused analyses when existing dashboards or reporting do not fully explain business performance.

Measure Business Impact

 * Establish baselines and measures of success for operational and process improvements.
 * Evaluate the impact of workflow changes, process improvements, and automation initiatives.
 * Determine whether implemented changes are producing the intended operational and financial results.
 * Develop scenario analyses, forecasts, and performance projections to support business decisions.
 * Identify new risks, opportunities, or performance issues revealed by changing results

Partner Across the Business

 * Work closely with Recovery Operations, Operational Excellence, and Finance to investigate business performance and surface opportunities for improvement.
 * Provide the analysis and insights needed to help leaders prioritize where action is required.
 * Partner with Operational Excellence by providing the data, root-cause analysis, and performance insights needed to inform process and solution design.
 * Communicate findings clearly to both operational and executive audiences.
 * Follow improvements through implementation to measure results and identify additional opportunities.
