People Systems and Data Analyst

Transport for Greater Manchester Manchester, United KingdomHybridFull Time

Key Notes

Workforce reporting and data validation experience are central to this permanent, full-time role at Piccadilly Place. You will analyse HR, recruitment, payroll and workforce-planning information within TfGM’s People team. Hybrid working is stated in the listing. Power BI, Power Automate or programming experience would help but are not essential.

What You'll Work On

  • Analyse and validate workforce datasets spanning recruitment, payroll, absence and establishment planning, translating patterns into information that managers can use.
  • Build reports and dashboards using Excel, Power Query and people systems, agreeing reporting requirements and outputs with stakeholders across TfGM.
  • Support system testing, data-quality improvements and reporting processes, explaining technical findings clearly to colleagues without a specialist analytics background.

Why This Role Matters

  • TfGM’s workforce planning draws on several people systems, making reconciled datasets necessary to distinguish genuine staffing trends from inconsistent records and reporting definitions.
  • HR and payroll information informs organisational decisions, with accessible dashboards exposing workforce risks and future needs to managers beyond the specialist People analytics team.

What They Are Looking For

  • Experience: Relevant experience includes extracting, manipulating, validating and presenting data through reporting or visualisation tools.
  • Stakeholder: Agree reporting requirements and explain technical information to non-technical audiences.
  • Preferred: Preferred attributes include Power BI, Power Automate or a programming language; these are explicitly not essential.
