People Data and Insight Analyst

Salary: £47,464 - £49,000

Location: Ealing office base with hybrid working.

Contract: Permanent, 35 hours per week. DBS check required: Basic.

About us: We’re a UK housing association committed to a new vision – providing homes people love to live in. With over 38,000 homes in management across London and southern England, we provide a wide range of homes for social, affordable and private rent, specialist housing services, as well as homes for sale and shared ownership. Our 70,000 customers have diverse backgrounds and levels of income and we’re here to provide all of them with homes that are safe, high quality and sustainable. And with social housing roots going back eight decades, we continue to ensure that every penny of profit we make is reinvested into our charitable social purpose – delivering more homes and better services for customers. We’re also members of the G15, a group of leading housing associations that work together to house one in ten Londoners and tackle the housing crisis.

Role Overview: We are looking for a People Data and Insight Analyst to join our dedicated People Services department. This role combines analytical expertise with business acumen to guide People strategy, enhance performance, and ensure compliance. The post holder will deliver reporting and insight that supports key People lifecycle events (e.g. performance, salary, and bonus reviews), fulfil cyclical reporting requirements such as Gender Pay Gap reporting, and contribute to data cleansing and migration activities as part of People Services transformation project.

Key responsibilities

• Data Analysis & Insight: Analyse People Services and workforce data to identify trends, risks, and opportunities that inform strategic and operational decisions. Produce dashboards, scorecards, and narrative reports that clearly communicate insights to non-technical People Services and senior stakeholders. Help People services and business leaders interpret data and embed insight into decision-making. Use advanced analytics techniques (e.g. predictive modelling, segmentation, regression) to provide forward-looking insight, not just descriptive reporting. Support cyclical processes (performance, reward, pay gap reporting) by producing reports and analysis to highlight key themes and implications.
• Data Quality & Governance: Partner with the Data team and colleagues to ensure People data is accurate, consistent, and well-governed and ensure adherence to the hub and spoke framework to certify datasets. Work with the People Services Systems Manager to conduct UAT testing of People Services systems, process data, and support the People Services Systems team. Monitor data quality, identifying root causes of issues and recommending process improvements. Act as People Services’s data steward, ensuring GDPR compliance, robust governance, and high data quality by managing People data assets, maintaining integrity and security, and representing People services in data stewardship meetings.
• Innovation & Continuous Improvement: Develop and enhance the use of analytics tools (e.g. Power BI, SQL & Excel) to improve reporting and insight capability. Proactively seek opportunities to automate standard reporting and free capacity for deeper analysis. Stay up to date with external trends in People analytics, benchmarking, and regulatory reporting, bringing new ideas into People Services. Work closely with People Business Partners and senior managers to understand their needs, framing analysis that answers business questions. Educate stakeholders on how to use data effectively to improve decision-making and operational efficiency.
