ABOUT THE JOB (Job Brief)
The Performance & Insights Senior Analyst is responsible for measuring business performance and surfacing actionable quantitative and qualitative insights that inform leadership decisions, improve effectiveness, and drive better outcomes. This role goes beyond reporting-connecting performance data, employee sentiment, and feedback loops to assess progress against expectations and identify opportunities to improve impact, adoption, and results.
This individual serves as a thought partner to leaders, translating data into insight, insight into action, and action into measurable improvement. The role also plays a critical enablement function-reinforcing data standards and practices that ensure insights are scalable, governed, and ready to support automation and AI-driven capabilities.
Essential Job Functions
Business Performance Measurement
Define, govern and maintain performance frameworks that measure progress against strategic goals, commitments, and expected outcomes, ensuring consistency, comparability and credibility across business areas
Establish and manage KPIs, success metrics, and scorecards that reflect outcomes and effectiveness-not just activity
Assess performance trends, gaps, and risks, clearly articulating what is working, what is not, and why
Quantitative & Qualitative Insights
Synthesize quantitative data (metrics, dashboards, operational performance) with qualitative inputs (employee feedback, sentiment, observations) to deliver holistic insights
Identify leading and lagging indicators that predict performance outcomes and business impact
Translate complex data into clear, executive-ready narratives that inform decision making
Employee Sentiment & Feedback Loops
Design and manage feedback mechanisms (surveys, pulse checks, listening posts, qualitative interviews) to capture employee sentiment and experience
Analyze themes, patterns, and sentiment trends to understand engagement, friction points, and change readiness
Partner with leaders to close feedback loops-ensuring insights result in visible action and measurable improvement
Effectiveness & Outcomes Optimization
Evaluate the effectiveness of initiatives, operating models, and ways of working against intended outcomes
Identify opportunities to improve performance, adoption, efficiency, and value realization
Support experimentation and continuous improvement by defining success criteria and measuring impact over time
AI Data Enablement, Governance & Scale Readiness
Serve as a connector between AI enablement, analytics, data governance, and business teams to ensure AI insights are scalable, governed, and reusable
Support the transition from AI experimentation to production-ready, business-aligned capabilities by reinforcing standards, expectations, and performance implications
Encourage use of governed, standardized data assets to support AI models and automation-highlighting where unmanaged data limits scale or increases risk
Influence data and insight standards to ensure performance intelligence is production-ready, auditable and fit for AI-driven decision support.
Use performance and adoption insights to surface AI-related governance gaps, duplication, or unmanaged experimentation that create risk or inefficiency
This role does not own data platforms or approve access. It enables adoption, accountability, and scale by ensuring insights are built to last.
Strategic Partnership & Influence
Act as a trusted advisor to business and functional leaders, providing objective insight and data-driven recommendations
Influence prioritization and decision making by grounding discussions in evidence, outcomes, and trade-offs
Collaborate across teams (analytics, operations, change, communications) to align insights, performance narratives, and adoption strategies
What Success Looks Like
Leaders have clear, trusted visibility into performance and effectiveness
Decisions are grounded in both data and employee insight
Feedback loops are closed, and employee sentiment informs real change
Insights are timely, actionable, and built on governed, reusable data foundations
Business outcomes improve-and those improvements are measurable, scalable, and understood
