1What this role really is

This isn't just about pulling numbers; it's about figuring out what actually works in learning and development. You'll be the go-to person for complex data puzzles, turning messy information into clear stories that help us make better decisions about how we train and develop our people. You'll often be the one digging deep into why a training programme didn't quite land, or proving that another one really moved the needle for the business.

2What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

Workday HCM / SAP SuccessFactorsAdvanced

Building complex custom reports using the native report writer, understanding the data model to join learning and talent data effectively, and troubleshooting data discrepancies.

Cornerstone OnDemand / DegreedAdvanced

Using advanced reporting features, scheduling automated reports, and beginning to use API connectors to pull data directly into our data warehouse for deeper analysis.

Tableau Desktop / Power BI PremiumAdvanced

Writing complex calculations (LOD Expressions, DAX), designing and publishing interactive dashboards to the server for business users, and optimising existing dashboards for performance.

Excel (Power Query & VBA)Expert

Expertly using Power Query (M language) for automating data cleaning pipelines, building robust data models, and writing simple VBA macros to automate repetitive tasks. Yes, we still use Excel for certain things, and you'll be the expert.

SQL (PostgreSQL / T-SQL)Advanced

Writing complex multi-table JOINs, GROUP BYs, and window functions to extract, transform, and clean data directly in the database. You'll be profiling data and preparing it for analysis.

Qualtrics / GlintAdvanced

Designing effective surveys, analysing open-text feedback using advanced techniques, and correlating survey results with behavioural data from other systems.

3What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing inWhere you are nowThe step above
Analytical Methodology for a new L&D programme evaluationProposes a method to their supervisor for review and approval; executes under close guidance.Selects a method from established options; seeks manager feedback on complex variations; executes independently.Designs and justifies the most appropriate methodology, including quasi-experimental approaches, for complex, ambiguous questions; consults Manager on significant deviations from standard practice; mentors juniors on best practices.
Data Source Integration StrategyIdentifies required data sources; asks supervisor for guidance on how to extract and join data.Independently extracts and joins data from 2-3 known sources; escalates issues with data quality or access.Designs strategy for integrating novel or challenging data sources (e.g., xAPI data from an LRS); profiles data quality and recommends cleaning approaches; consults Data Engineering on complex API integrations.
Prioritisation of ad-hoc requests vs. planned workImmediately escalates all ad-hoc requests to supervisor for prioritisation.Assesses urgency and impact of ad-hoc requests against current workload; proposes prioritisation to manager for approval.Independently prioritises most ad-hoc requests based on business impact and existing commitments; proactively communicates any impact on planned work; escalates only high-stakes conflicts to Manager.

4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Automation Impact
Hours of manual reporting or data preparation saved each month through automation.
Target · Automate 20+ hours per month

You build a Power Query script that automatically cleans and joins LMS and HRIS data, saving the team 25 hours of manual spreadsheet work each month. That's a win!

Complex Project Delivery Rate
Percentage of complex analytical projects delivered on or before the agreed timeline.
Target · 90% of projects delivered on time

You took on an analysis of leadership training's impact on team retention, which involved joining five different datasets. You delivered the final report and presentation within the 8-week timeframe we agreed.

Insight Adoption Rate
Number of L&D strategic decisions or programme changes directly influenced by your analytical findings.
Target · Influence 2-3 key decisions per quarter

Your analysis showed that our onboarding programme wasn't actually improving new hire productivity. Based on your report, the L&D team completely redesigned the programme, leading to better results.

Analytical Rigour & Methodology
The soundness and robustness of your analytical approaches, especially when dealing with complex, ambiguous questions.
  • Your analyses are rarely challenged on their methodology. You can clearly explain your assumptions and limitations. You proactively identify potential biases in the data or approach. You're the person others come to when they need to sanity-check their own analysis.
Data Storytelling & Influence
Your ability to translate complex data findings into clear, compelling narratives that resonate with non-technical business leaders and drive action.
  • Your presentations are consistently praised for their clarity and impact. Business leaders reference your insights in their own discussions. You get invited to strategic planning meetings because people trust you to tell them what the data *really* means. People actually *do* things based on your recommendations.
Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing
The effectiveness of your informal guidance and support for junior analysts on the team.
  • Junior team members regularly seek your advice. Their work quality visibly improves after you've reviewed it or coached them. You actively contribute to our team's best practices and documentation, making it easier for everyone to learn and grow.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Solving Complex Puzzles

You love diving into a tangled mess of data, figuring out how different pieces fit together, and uncovering hidden patterns. The more ambiguous the problem, the more excited you get.

Being asked to figure out if our new leadership training actually reduced employee turnover, despite having incomplete data from three different systems. That's your kind of challenge.

Driving Real Impact

You're not content with just producing reports; you want to see your work lead to tangible changes. Knowing that your analysis helped improve a training programme or saved the company money really gets you going.

Seeing the L&D team completely redesign a core programme based on your findings, and then seeing the positive results in subsequent data. That's a huge win for you.

Mentoring & Developing Others

You enjoy sharing your knowledge and helping junior colleagues grow their skills. You get a kick out of seeing someone you've coached 'get it' and start producing great work on their own.

Spending an hour walking a junior analyst through a complex SQL query or helping them structure a presentation, and then seeing them confidently apply that knowledge later.

What frustrates people
  • Attribution vs. Causation Hell: You will constantly be asked to 'prove' a training programme caused a business outcome, when in reality, you can only show a correlation. Be prepared to defend your methodology against executives who want a simple, causal answer that doesn't exist.
  • The Data Silo Gauntlet: Your primary job is often being a data plumber, spending 60% of your time trying to join incomplete data from the LMS, the HRIS, a survey tool, and a separate performance system, none of which were designed to talk to each other.
  • Proxy Metric Purgatory: You want to measure on-the-job behaviour change, but you can't get the data. So you're forced to present weaker proxy metrics like course completion rates or manager satisfaction scores, knowing they don't tell the whole story.
  • The 'Urgent' Vague Request: Expect a weekly 'fire drill' from a senior leader asking you to 'just pull some numbers' to support a decision they've already made, requiring you to drop everything to find data that fits their narrative.
  • Lack of a Control Group: Unlike marketing, you can rarely run a true A/B test. You can't ethically withhold mandatory leadership or compliance training from a segment of the population to create a clean control group. It's just not how L&D works.
  • The 'Flavor of the Month' Initiative: You will invest weeks building a beautiful, automated dashboard for a major L&D programme, only for leadership to pivot to a new strategic priority three months later, rendering your work obsolete. It happens, unfortunately.
What this role does not give you
  • A perfectly clean, pre-joined dataset ready for analysis. You'll be doing a lot of the cleaning yourself.
  • A predictable, unchanging set of priorities. Things shift, and you'll need to roll with it.
  • The ability to always run true A/B tests with perfect control groups. You'll often be working with quasi-experimental designs.
  • A quiet, heads-down role with no stakeholder interaction. You'll be talking to people constantly.

6Who you work with

This role directly influences how we invest in our people. Your analysis helps us decide which learning programmes get funding, which ones need a rethink, and where we have critical skill gaps. Ultimately, you're helping us build a more capable, productive workforce, which is pretty fundamental to our overall business success.

Inside the business
  • L&D Business Partners (your primary internal clients)
  • Business Unit Leaders (who want to see impact)
  • HRIS Team (for core employee data)
  • Data Engineering Team (for data warehouse support)
  • HR Leadership Team (who set the overall people strategy)
Outside the business
  • LMS/LXP Vendors (for data access and reporting capabilities)
  • External Training Providers (for programme-specific data)

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Proven experience (5-8 years) in a dedicated data analytics role, ideally within HR, L&D, or a related people function.
  • Demonstrable experience leading analytical projects from start to finish, including defining requirements, data acquisition, analysis, and presenting findings.
  • Strong proficiency in SQL for complex data querying and manipulation (you can write window functions in your sleep, probably).
  • Advanced skills in at least one major data visualisation tool (Tableau or Power BI), including dashboard design and complex calculations.
  • Expert-level Excel skills, particularly with Power Query for data automation.
  • A solid understanding of statistical concepts (e.g., correlation, regression, hypothesis testing) and their practical application to business problems.
  • Experience mentoring or guiding junior team members, even if informally.

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Statistical Modelling for Behavioural Data

Important within 12 months. As we get better data, we'll want to move beyond simple correlations to more robust predictive and causal models. Understanding techniques like multi-level modelling or survival analysis will be key to truly understanding learning impact over time.

Regression techniques (e.g., logistic, multi-level) · Survival analysis · Propensity score matching · Time-series analysis for learning trends

  • This quarter: Take an online course on advanced regression or statistical modelling (e.g., Coursera, edX).
  • Next quarter: Apply a new statistical technique to one of your existing datasets, even if it's just for internal experimentation.
  • Month 6: Present your findings from this new technique to the team, explaining the methodology and its implications.
  • Month 9: Explore using R or Python for statistical modelling, if you're not already comfortable with them.

Quick win: Start reading articles or watching YouTube tutorials on 'causal inference in HR' or 'predictive analytics for L&D'. Even a basic understanding will help you frame questions better.

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Actively participate in online data analytics communities or forums (e.g., Kaggle, Stack Overflow) to keep your skills sharp and learn from others.
  • Attend webinars or virtual conferences on People Analytics, L&D Measurement, or Data Storytelling to stay current with industry trends.
  • Contribute to internal knowledge sharing sessions, perhaps by presenting a new technique you've learned or a challenging project you've completed.
  • Take on a 'stretch' project that pushes your analytical boundaries, perhaps involving a new dataset or a more complex statistical method.

10How the AI economy is changing work like this

Before we ask anything of you, here's what we can already say about AI and work of this kind:

The new skill this role is being asked for: Prompt Engineering & LLM Integration

Critical within 6 months—this is already happening, not future. Competitors are using tools like ChatGPT and Claude to draft reports in 10 minutes that used to take 2 hours. Analysts who figure this out will outproduce peers 3:1, and frankly, we need to keep up. It's about working smarter, not just harder.

We'll only ever tell you what we can actually back up. No hype, no scare tactics.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Senior Performance Analytics Assistant is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

12The team that's yours

No two people are taught the same way. This is one-to-one, not one-to-many.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

…and nine more, matched to you after your first chat. Meet all twelve

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

No two people run this the same way

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

The career path, and where it branches

Senior Performance Analytics Assistant is a start, not a ceiling. Each step below asks for new skills and hands back more autonomy.

  1. Lead Learning Analytics Partner (Level 4)

    2-4 years in current role

    This is a step up where you'll act as the primary analytics consultant for a specific business unit or a major L&D domain (e.g., Leadership Development). You'll be designing new data models and measurement strategies for key L&D programmes, and probably managing 1-2 junior analysts directly.

    • Data Architecture Design: Contributing to the design of the L&D data schema within the enterprise data warehouse.
    • Advanced Predictive Modelling: Building more sophisticated models to forecast skill gaps or predict learning outcomes.
    • Budget Management: Managing small project budgets (e.g., for external data sources or tools, typically £50K-£100K).
    • Vendor Management: Evaluating and working with external data/analytics vendors.
Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, a lot of the grunt work in analytics can be a bit of a slog. But what if you could offload the repetitive stuff and focus on the really interesting, high-impact analysis? That's where AI comes in.

For a Senior Performance Analytics Assistant, AI isn't about replacing your job; it's about making you incredibly more efficient and effective. Imagine spending less time wrestling with messy data or drafting emails, and more time uncovering those 'aha!' moments that truly shape our L&D strategy. Our internal AI Productivity Hub is packed with tools and guides to help you do just that.

Thematic Analysis Accelerator

Feed thousands of open-ended comments from course feedback surveys or qualitative interviews into an LLM. It'll instantly categorise feedback into themes like 'Instructor Quality', 'Content Relevance', and 'Platform Issues', saving you hours of manual coding. You'll get to the 'so what' much faster.

Automated Narrative Generation

Connect AI tools to your Tableau or Power BI dashboard and get a first draft of your weekly or monthly narrative summary. It'll highlight key trends, outliers, and deltas, giving you a solid starting point to refine and add your expert interpretation. No more staring at a blank page.

Stakeholder Comms Drafter

Got a complex finding, like 'Our new manager coaching programme is correlated with a 15% reduction in team regrettable attrition'? Ask an LLM to draft a clear, jargon-free email or presentation slide explaining what this means and why it matters to a specific business leader. It's like having a personal communications assistant.

SQL Query Co-Pilot

Use AI assistants (like GitHub Copilot or similar tools) to translate your natural language requests – 'Show me all employees who completed the sales training and their quota attainment for the next quarter' – into a valid SQL query. This massively accelerates your data exploration and helps you write more complex queries faster, even with tricky joins.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Senior Performance Analytics Assistant, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 10 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Senior Performance Analytics Assistant: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.

Other roles at Level 4

Same depth of qualification, different job. Useful if the work appeals but this particular role does not.

Other roles in Learning and Development

Stay in the field you know and move sideways rather than up.

If you leave this industry

The skills you'll gain here – advanced analytics, data storytelling, influencing without authority, working with complex behavioural data – are highly transferable. You could move into broader People Analytics roles, Business Intelligence, or even specific product analytics roles in other industries. The ability to translate data into actionable insights is always in demand, no matter the sector.
