Our Values If this sounds like you, you'll fit right in. Who You Are We're looking for a Senior Business Systems Analyst to own and evolve our people reporting and analytics capability — turning Workday data into insights that help our leaders make better, faster decisions. Working as a member of the People Systems team, you'll partner closely with People Operations, Finance, Talent, and senior leadership to design and deliver reporting solutions that are accurate, scalable, and genuinely useful. You will be the functional subject matter expert for Workday Reporting, People Analytics, responsible for building and maintaining our core reporting layer, driving data quality, and enabling self-service across the business. You have a passion for people data and a strong belief that good reporting changes how organisations operate. You're the person who looks at a spreadsheet someone built manually every month and immediately thinks about how to automate it. You're detail-oriented, curious, and care as much about whether a report is actually used as whether it's technically correct. As part of Justworks, the People Systems team is charged with delivering an amazing employee experience and ensuring our People & Talent systems, tools, and processes support our growing people and business needs. You will play a critical role in making our people data trustworthy, accessible, and actionable — so that HR leadership and business partners can self-serve confidently without raising a ticket every month. Your Success Profile Serve as the Workday functional lead for Reporting, People Analytics — owning the design, build, and maintenance of our core reporting layer across all people data domains. Partner with HR, Finance, and senior leadership to understand reporting needs, translate them into scalable Workday solutions, and deliver outputs that enable genuine self-service. Build and maintain our suite of core recurring reports — headcount, attrition, time-to-fill, span of control, comp ratios — ensuring they are accurate, maintained, and accessible without analyst intervention. Design and manage Workday dashboards and scorecards for HR leadership and manager self-service, reducing reliance on ad hoc data requests. Own our data transformation layer — bringing in external data sources including ATS, engagement survey results, and finance data for blended people reporting. Establish and maintain a data quality monitoring process — running regular audits to surface missing fields, broken hierarchies, and stale records before they cause downstream problems. Manage a structured intake process for ad hoc reporting requests, ensuring the business has a clear, consistent way to request and receive data. Partner with the Integrations Architect at the design stage of every new integration to ensure data lands in the right shape for reporting — field naming, granularity, and refresh frequency. Manage bi-annual Workday releases, evaluating reporting and analytics feature updates, testing new functionality, and recommending adoption strategies. Develop and maintain documentation for all reports, dashboards, and data definitions to support change management, onboarding, and audit requirements.
