People Analytics Specialist

A people analytics specialist uses data and statistical methods to help a company understand and improve how it hires, develops, and keeps its workforce. In a typical week you might build a model that flags the factors tied to resignations, design an employee survey, analyze whether promotions are fair across groups, or forecast how many people a department will need next year. You work closely with HR business partners, recruiters, and executives, and you spend much of your time deciding which questions are worth asking and explaining results in plain language that leads to action.
