Position Profile

The Head of People Analytics is a critical leadership position within the Organizational Development & People Analytics (OD&PA) Centre of Expertise (COE), which is part of Jazz's HR Function.

The purpose of the OD&PA COE is to design high-impact organizational interventions that improve the overall health and performance of Jazz, in-line with Jazz's strategic vision, underpinned by data-driven insights. As a relatively 'young' COE within the HR Function in Jazz, this is a great time for the Head of People Analytics to join the team and help shape the future direction as well as further develop the People Analytics capabilities within the team as well as more broadly across HR and the business.

The Head of People Analytics will report into the VP of OD&PA and own and execute the People Analytics strategy for Jazz, ensuring the quality and efficacy of organizational and people insights based on both quantitative as well as qualitative data, and will work in full partnership with the OD and Change experts in the COE to deliver full value for Jazz.

The Head of People Analytics will collaborate closely with many functions within HR (e.g. HR Business Partners, HR Operations, Talent Management, Total Rewards, etc.), as well with other functions across Jazz (e.g. Information Services, Finance, Transformation Office, etc.). They will be required to use their thought leadership in the People Analytics domain to influence others (up to and including executive management), but also be able to take a consultative and pragmatic approach in building highly effective relationships as part of a broader team effort. They will need to be able to blend both technical expertise in the field of People Analytics (including expertise in data, systems, and technologies) with a broader understanding and appreciation of HR / people / organizational strategy, and how to effect change in organizations using data. They will need to effectively navigate ambiguity, identify the key questions to be asked, and facilitate a process to resolve them (amidst complexity and multiple points of view).
