Your responsibilities

Workforce reporting & insights

• Own the workforce reporting and insights operating rhythm (cadence, inputs, quality checks, approvals) aligned to the Workforce Planning & Insights governance calendar.
• Deliver workforce packs and written commentary (e.g., headcount/FTE, vacancies, turnover, mobility, critical roles, spans and layers, contingent workforce where relevant), translating data into clear narratives and recommendations.
• Design and maintain dashboards and self-service reporting (e.g., Workday reporting and other tools used at ASX), ensuring consistent definitions, trusted data sources and adoption by P&C and leaders.
• Partner closely with the P&C Analyst to scope analysis, review outputs, uplift storytelling and ensure deliverables are accurate, repeatable and audit-ready (assumptions, sources and version control).

People data governance & stewardship:

• Establish and champion people data governance for workforce reporting (standards, definitions, ownership, access controls and data quality monitoring), partnering with P&C, Finance and Technology to resolve root causes of data quality issues.
• Ensure workforce insights and reporting comply with privacy obligations and internal data governance, including appropriate handling of sensitive information.

Systems enablement (Workday / people systems):

• Support the Head of Workforce Planning & Insights in the ongoing optimisation of Workday and related people systems, with a focus on reporting capability, data quality, process discipline and user experience.
• Partner with HRIS/Technology and vendors to triage reporting and data issues, coordinate fixes/enhancements and support release readiness (testing, comms, training) for changes impacting workforce reporting and analytics.

Enablement of workforce planning & sufficiency:

• Enable the Head of Workforce Planning & Insights by providing high-quality data, reporting and analysis to support Strategic Workforce Planning (SWP) and the Sufficiency of People Resources Assessment (SOPRA), including maintenance of baseline datasets, agreed assumptions and consistent metrics.
• Contribute to documentation and artefacts that are auditable (e.g., definitions, methodologies, assumptions and evidence trails) to support internal assurance and regulatory expectations.

Leadership & ways of working:

• Provide day-to-day coaching, prioritisation and quality assurance for the P&C Analyst, supporting capability uplift in analytics, reporting and stakeholder communication.
• Drive continuous improvement across workforce reporting processes, reducing manual effort and improving speed-to-insight through automation, standardisation and fit-for-purpose tooling.

Measures of Success

• Workforce reporting packs and dashboards are delivered to agreed cadence, with consistent definitions and minimal rework.
• Workforce metrics are trusted: clear data owners, documented methodologies, strong version control and improved data quality over time.
• Leaders and P&C Business Partners report that insights are clear and actionable and support prioritisation and workforce decisions.
• Workday/people systems reporting capability is uplifted (greater self-service, fewer manual workarounds, faster issue resolution) through effective partnership with HRIS/Technology.
• The Head of Workforce Planning & Insights is enabled with timely, high-quality analysis and artefacts that are audit-ready to support SWP and SOPRA governance

Experience

• Significant experience in workforce analytics, people insights, HR reporting, management reporting, workforce planning enablement and/or HR systems reporting.
• Strong data capability (advanced Excel required; Power BI and/or SQL desirable) including ability to reconcile datasets, apply quality controls and explain results clearly.
• Experience producing executive-ready reporting (packs, dashboards and commentary) with high attention to detail and strong storytelling.
• Knowledge of people data governance, privacy and access controls; comfortable handling sensitive information with sound judgement.
• Experience with Workday reporting (and/or Workday Prism Analytics) or similar HRIS reporting, including partnering with HRIS/Technology teams to deliver enhancements and resolve issues.
• Strong stakeholder partnering and ability to operate in a delivery-oriented cadence, prioritising effectively and driving continuous improvement
