Why we're hiring:

This is a new role to be recruited via GEC Chennai, with a required start before 25 September 2026. The role provides the data and analytics engine behind the Enterprise AI value story, owning Viva Insights configuration and customisation, adoption tracking across all seven tenants, and the Power BI and data-modelling layer that Viva Insights does not provide natively. This capability is currently provided by EY and will leave with them, making this a critical in-house role for continuity, measurement and executive reporting. The role is funded within the pre-approved AI CoE staffing budget.

What you'll be doing:

• Own Viva Insights configuration and customisation, including custom dashboards, group definitions, benchmark selection, and retention and consistency views.
• Own usage and adoption tracking across all seven tenants, including the cross-tenant aggregation layer that Viva Insights does not provide.
• Build and maintain the Power BI reporting estate and the data model beneath it.
• Integrate Workday organisational data to enable cluster, region and job-family reporting cuts.
• Reconcile key performance indicators across readiness, adoption and impact so published figures tie out.
• Maintain the value calculation and interrogate the assumptions beneath it.
• Produce the monthly executive reporting pack to a fixed cycle and support delivery across the opportunity pipeline.

What you'll need:

• Qualification Requirements (Desirable) (Subject to change as per role title).
• Direct Viva Insights experience; Workday data experience; prior involvement in a Copilot or Microsoft 365 rollout; prior WPP or holding-company experience.
• Skills / Experience Requirements (Subject to change as per role title)
• Five or more years in data analytics, business intelligence or programme measurement in a multinational environment.
• Strong Power BI capability, able to build, model and maintain reporting solutions rather than simply consume dashboards.
• Demonstrable data modelling skill, with confidence integrating multiple sources into one reporting view.
• Advanced Excel skills and experience working with Microsoft 365 administrative or reporting data.
• Excellent written English and reliable working overlap with London hours.
• Delivery mindset: this is a data role with delivery responsibility, not a programme office role that also produces reports.

Who you are:

You're open: we are inclusive and collaborative; we encourage the free exchange of ideas; we respect and celebrate diverse views. We are open-minded: to new ideas, new partnerships, new ways of working.

You're optimistic: we approach all that we do with confidence: to try the new and to seek the unexpected.

You're extraordinary: We are stronger together: through collaboration we achieve the amazing. We are creative leaders and pioneers of our industry; we provide extraordinary every day.

What we'll give you:

Passionate, inspired people – we champion a culture of people that do extraordinary work

Scale and opportunity – we offer the opportunity to create, influence and deliver projects at a scale that is unparalleled in the industry.

Challenging and stimulating work – unique work and the opportunity to join a group of creative problem solvers.
