Role Profile

The HR Data Analyst plays a key role in delivering high-quality people data, insights and reporting to support strategic decision making across the organisation. The role focuses on developing robust data analysis, reporting and governance practices across the full employee lifecycle, enabling the People team and business leaders to make informed, evidence-based decisions.

While the primary focus of the role is broader people analytics, the role also provides analytical support across reward activities, including Gender Pay Gap reporting, remuneration benchmarking and annual pay review processes.

The role requires strong analytical capability, attention to detail and the ability to translate complex data into clear, actionable insights for a range of stakeholders.

Please note that this role is a 12-month fixed-term contract and can be based out of either our Leeds, Nottingham, or Edinburgh office.

Exposure to reward processes (pay reviews, benchmarking, gender pay gap reporting) beneficial but not essential

Awareness of UK employment legislation and regulatory environments advantageous

Collaboration & Team Contribution

Work closely with People Partners, Finance, Talent acquisition and business leaders to provide clear, accurate people-related insights

Support People Partners and Line Manager during the pay review cycle, offering guidance on tools, data and reward policies

Build effective relationships with external benefits providers, ensuring smooth service delivery and timely issue resolution
