About The Position

This is a hands-on, high impact role at the reporting core of our People Analytics and Reporting function. As Sr. Analyst, HR Reporting and Analytics, you will design, develop, and deliver HR reporting solutions that give leaders and managers the workforce insights they need to make better, faster decisions. From day one, you will take ownership of a high visibility, multi-year strategic initiative as the primary driver of our migration to SuccessFactors Report Stories. This work will play a key role in modernizing how reporting is built, delivered, and used across the organization. In addition to leading the migration, you will manage a steady cadence of operational reports, drive new report development, rationalize and consolidate legacy reporting, and conduct SAP release testing and impact analysis to help keep our environment stable, current, and scalable. This role offers a unique opportunity to directly shape how HR leaders and business managers access and use workforce data. It also provides meaningful runway for growth. As the reporting function matures and becomes more streamlined, there will be increasing opportunity to expand into broader analytics work across the People Analytics team. If you thrive on turning complex data into clean, reliable, and scalable solutions, and you are energized by continuous improvement and using technology, including AI, to work smarter, this role offers both immediate impact and long-term growth potential.
