About The Position

At Wellist, we help employers support their people through every life moment—while ensuring HR and benefits leaders get the greatest possible value from their investments. As our Senior Strategic Analyst, you will be the person who builds, executes, and delivers the high-impact analyses that drive client strategy and internal decision-making. This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who can frame analytical problems, work directly with raw data, produce zero-defect outputs, and turn those outputs into clear recommendations that influence executive stakeholders. You will own the end-to-end analytics behind client deep dives, ROI assessments, portfolio evaluations, and monthly/quarterly reporting. Internally, you will ship analyses that shape product direction, resource prioritization, and Wellist’s marketplace and ecosystem strategy. This role requires exceptional analytical rigor, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate findings clearly to CHROs, CFOs, Wellist leadership, and cross-functional partners.
