People Analytics Analyst

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Germany.

📋 Description

• Act as a primary, business-facing People Analytics specialist for People Team Business Partners, the People Leadership Team, and senior business executives — monitoring organizational health metrics and people plan goals, while remaining closely engaged with the business and its most significant workforce challenges, particularly in supporting Sales and Go-To-Market (GTM) teams.

• Execute and present continuous workforce analysis, quarterly business reviews (QBRs), and on-demand analytics that inform and enhance business decision-making.

• Spearhead data storytelling: convert intricate people data into straightforward, engaging narratives and recommendations customized for executive and leadership audiences.

• Collaborate proactively with Business Partners and leaders on strategic focal points (e.g., attrition, hiring, performance, mobility, retention, organizational design), leveraging data to pinpoint trends, risks, and opportunities.

• Exhibit curiosity and determination in linking data across various people systems — discovering trends, risks, and opportunities concerning attrition, hiring, performance, mobility, organizational health, and more.

• Create swift 'v0.5' analytical solutions from the ground level, then work with the broader People Analytics team to scale and implement these solutions.

• Utilize AI tools and automation in your workflow — from analysis and reporting to generating insights — while applying your expertise to guide, refine, and enhance AI outcomes.

• Apply your data skills, curiosity, and People Analytics knowledge to devise scalable SQL modeling, business-oriented dashboards, automated reporting, and AI solutions.

• Propel the strategic roadmap of the People Analytics function, which includes broadening reporting and analytics capabilities, establishing and refining KPIs, and leading critical projects in essential business areas.

⛳️ Requirements

• Proven experience in a people analytics, HR analytics, or workforce analytics position with significant exposure to business-facing stakeholders.

• An insatiably curious analytical mindset — you enjoy connecting data and uncovering insights.

• Proficiency in SQL: constructing complex, efficient queries is a routine aspect of your work (BigQuery, Snowflake, or comparable platforms).

• Strong AI skills and a genuine enthusiasm for leveraging AI tools to enhance your workflow — you actively seek AI-driven solutions and use your domain expertise to guide and validate them.

• Advanced proficiency with Excel and/or Google Sheets for analysis, modeling, and rapid insights generation.

• Familiarity with data visualization and BI tools (PowerBI, Tableau, Looker; Grafana BI is a plus) with a focus on enabling self-service analytics.

• Experience handling people data from HR systems such as Workday, Greenhouse, LMS platforms, or similar.

• Excellent presentation and storytelling capabilities — you can convert complex data into clear, persuasive insights for non-technical audiences.

• Outstanding communication and stakeholder management abilities; you establish trust and credibility with HR partners and business leaders.

• Resilience and adaptability — you excel under pressure, manage competing priorities without compromising quality, and view ambiguity as a challenge rather than an obstacle.

• Comfort in operating within a developing, evolving analytics function where building, iterating, and scaling are integral to the role.
