• Analyse people data to identify trends, risks and opportunities that inform workforce planning, policy development and service improvements.
• Maintain data quality, governance and compliance, ensuring workforce information is accurate and audit-ready.
• Improve reporting systems and processes through automation, dashboard optimisation and other efficiency improvements.
• Work with People Operations, Senior People Partners and Service Enablement Hubs to provide analytical advice and communicate findings.
• Promote good practice in workforce analytics, data integrity and reporting across the People Function.
• Provide additional HR systems administration support to maintain service continuity.
• Act as a Data Steward for designated workforce datasets, overseeing data quality, consistent definitions and the resolution of data issues.
• Work with HR Systems Administrators and operational teams to ensure workforce data is used consistently in reports, dashboards and statutory returns.

Applicants should demonstrate the following skills and experience:

• Proven ability to interpret and analyse complex datasets.
• Experience designing, producing and maintaining workforce reports and dashboards in an HR, People Services or comparable environment.
• Proficiency in Excel, Power BI or similar reporting platforms.
• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to maintaining data quality.
• Ability to explain complex information clearly and concisely to non-technical audiences.
• A professional qualification in data analytics, HR analytics or a related discipline, or equivalent experience.

Application and Selection Process

Applications are made through Civil Service Jobs using the vacancy reference 485546.

The recruitment process uses the Civil Service Success Profiles framework to assess behaviours, ability and experience.

Candidates will first complete a Civil Service online test. The advertised test is not timed, and applicants can complete it at their own pace.

Candidates who pass the test will then be asked to provide their personal details, career history and qualifications, followed by a 1,250-word personal statement explaining how they meet the essential skills and capabilities listed in the role profile.

Applicants should address each essential criterion and use truthful examples drawn from their own experience. Any use of AI must comply with Civil Service recruitment guidance, and all submitted information must be accurate and genuinely reflect the applicant’s experience.

Candidates who require employer sponsorship should contact the recruitment team before applying to confirm eligibility.

The advert also sets out Civil Service nationality requirements. Applicants must fall within an eligible nationality or immigration category and satisfy the relevant right-to-work requirements. Meeting these nationality requirements does not, by itself, guarantee Skilled Worker sponsorship.
