This role helps us answer one key question: Is our training working and how do we know?
As the Sr. Training Measurement & Systems Analyst, you’ll own how we measure training effectiveness and ensure our learning platforms and reporting gives operational team members clear, useful insights.
This is not a traditional training role. It focuses on data and systems, turning learning into something we can measure and act on while bringing clarity to how training impacts the network.

• Comfortable working across teams and influencing decisions without authority
• Someone who looks for ways to simplify, improve, and scale how things work
• Bachelor’s degree in business, analytics, human resources, learning, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 3+ years of experience in learning measurement, analytics, learning technology, process improvement, or related roles.
• Strong analytical skills with demonstrated experience interpreting data and translating insights into recommendations.
• Experience working with learning platforms, reporting tools, and data sources.
• Proficiency with tools such as SQL, Excel, Access, SharePoint, or similar technologies.
• Proven ability to manage projects end-to-end and communicate clearly with diverse stakeholders.

• Ability to travel up to 25%

Nice To Haves

• Experience in learning, training, or L&D environments

• Demonstrated success driving process improvement and standardization.
• Comfort navigating ambiguity and influencing without direct authority.

Responsibilities

• Turn learning and operational data into clear, practical insights
• Partner with operations, HR, and tech teams to improve data accuracy and reporting
• Support and improve learning platforms and tools used for tracking and delivery

• Identify and close gaps in current data, reporting, or systems and work across teams
• Prioritize and manage reporting requests, focusing on what adds the most value
• Validate and troubleshoot training data issues to ensure accuracy and consistency across systems
