Analytics Lead - Flexible

Description:

We're looking for someone who wants to design, develop and implement innovative, business aligned analytics initiatives to support the department to make informed, evidence-based people and corporate decisions.

The Analytics Lead sits in the Strategic Planning and Analytics team in the People and Culture branch and has a focus on Human Resource related analytics while also supporting the Corporate Services division more broadly in designing and implementing analytics initiatives.

This is an opportunity to make a key contribution to progressing and modernising the approach to data and analysis in a government department.

We're interested in someone that brings both technical competence (both data infrastructure/processing and quantitative and qualitative analysis), and a drive to help people gain insight from information. You'll be part of a small team using data and analytics to paint a bigger picture, guiding a diverse department on workforce

and corporate decisions.

Here Is What a Typical Day Might Look Like

• working with a dataset to cleanse and analyse, drawing on statistical/analytics techniques to identify risks and issues
• talking with team members and others in HR to share initial insights and what this may mean for planning and related decisions
• meeting with internal and external stakeholders to progressively improve data governance, processes and infrastructure
• attending a committee meeting to share the findings of a team analysis that has been prepared to guide actions being considered for a department-wide initiative
• coding a new key measure into an existing data model and feeding this through to dashboards/reports for others to self-service trend information and gain further insight
• working with another team member to show them how you undertook a particular analysis using a program, process or programming language they are less familiar with.
