Global Data Analyst (Fixed-Term)

Responsibilities
Build Foundational, Self-Service BI Data Products
Design, build, and maintain high-impact, organization-wide dashboards (“tentpole dashboards”) that enable self-service analytics across functions.
Ensure dashboards and reports are accurate, well-documented, and built for long-term sustainability.
Monitor adoption and continuously improve usability and relevance.
This role is less focused on one-off data projects and more focused on building durable tools that people consistently use and trust.

Own Analytical Domains and Partner with Data Engineering
Serve as the primary analyst for specific data domains (e.g. Finance, People, Supply Chain, etc.).
Deeply understand business processes and logic within those domains.
Own the full delivery of dashboards and data analytics products: make prioritization decisions, understand user needs, wireframe and design outputs, own delivery and iteration.
Partner closely with Data Engineers to ensure business rules are embedded in the warehouse and semantic layer.
Clearly communicate data limitations and ensure metric consistency.
The goal is to ensure logic lives in the data model — not scattered across dashboards.

Strengthen Analytical Standards Across the Organization
Contribute to and help lead a community of practice for embedded analysts.
Codify and uphold standards for dashboard design, documentation, governance, and metric definition.
Support adoption of best practices in BI development and data storytelling.
