Lead Data Analyst

Own the performance truth for CX and Support Services, serving as the authoritative source of insight on operational health, outcomes, and risk across initiatives, programs, and ongoing execution. Perform advanced statistical analysis and modeling on structured and unstructured datasets to identify trends, patterns, drivers, and root causes impacting operational performance, delivery outcomes, and customer experience. Translate complex performance data into decision‑ready insights, moving beyond reporting to frame implications, trade‑offs, and recommendations for senior leaders. Design, create, and evolve performance metrics, KPIs, and analytical frameworks, balancing leading and lagging indicators to reflect both operational execution and strategic priorities. Develop and maintain dashboards, reports, and visualizations using data visualization tools and techniques that support clear data storytelling, interpretation, and understanding of trends of business importance. Provide early warning signals and proactive guidance by detecting emerging risks, performance degradation, or opportunity areas before they materially impact outcomes. Partner closely with senior stakeholders, including the BEP Director, Principal Business Partner, and Analytics COE, to align on performance questions, interpret results, and shape actions. Collaborate with technology, development, and data management teams to understand data and analysis needs, define technical requirements, and ensure the right data is captured from internal and external sources. Create, maintain, and refine analytical and statistical models to support both ongoing performance monitoring and ad hoc deep‑dive analysis tied to strategic initiatives and operational changes. Measure and validate the impact of strategic initiatives and operational changes, ensuring intended outcomes are clearly defined, tracked, and realized over time--not just at launch.
