Work you’ll do

• Turn business questions into analytics: Partner with AP Talent and business stakeholders to understand workforce priorities and translate complex, ambiguous or evolving questions into clear analytical approaches.
• Deliver end-to-end workforce analytics: Lead the work from sourcing, integrating and validating data through to analysis, visualisation, insight generation and executive-ready communication.
• Build decision-focused reporting: Develop and enhance dashboards, reports and analytical products that support workforce strategy, highlight emerging issues and enable better leadership decisions.

• Protect trust in the data: Maintain high standards of data quality, confidentiality, privacy and governance, applying sound judgement and appropriate human oversight to AI-enabled analysis.
• Work across Asia Pacific: Collaborate with regional and local Talent teams to improve data definitions, quality and consistency while recognising differences in market context.
