The People Systems & Analytics Specialist is a hands-on systems and data role sitting at the heart of SafetyCulture's P&C function. You'll own the People tech stack end-to-end — from system configuration and data integrity through to the dashboards and reports that leaders rely on every day. You’ll be the go-to expert on our People systems day-to-day, and partner closely with the P&C Engineer to get the most out of our people data and systems.
Key Responsibilities:
Systems ownership & administration:
Own the day-to-day administration, configuration and maintenance of SafetyCulture’s People systems, ensuring they are accurate, well-governed and fit for purpose. This includes our HRIS (HiBob), ATS and other connected systems.
Support people programs with systems configuration and data preparation — including annual performance reviews, compensation cycles, onboarding and off boarding — ensuring systems are set up ahead of time and data is clean and ready to use.
Own vendor relationships across the People tech stack, including contract renewals, commercials and ongoing performance management
Co-lead assessments of new tools in partnership with the P&C Engineer and relevant stakeholders, and manage the implementation of any new systems.
Translate business needs into scalable, user-friendly system solutions, identifying opportunities to streamline workflows, improve system usability and reduce manual effort.
Proactively manage system access, permissions and data governance across the People tech stack, in line with privacy and compliance requirements.
Act as the primary point of contact for People system issues, triaging and resolving problems across integrations, data feeds and platform configuration.
Partner with the P&C Engineer on system and workflow enhancements, embedding new capabilities into BAU operations. Stay informed on emerging AI tools and trends in People Operations, identifying opportunities to improve how we work.
Liaise with external system vendors on support, releases and roadmap updates, ensuring SafetyCulture is getting full value from its People tech investments. Provide enablement and training to the broader P&C team.
Partner with People Ops and Talent teams to ensure data entry practices and process touchpoints maintain system integrity. Set up validation rules and conduct regular audits.
Maintain up-to-date documentation and user guides for People systems and processes
Reporting & Workforce Insights:
Build, maintain and iterate on People dashboards and reports that give P&C leaders and senior stakeholders clear, actionable workforce insights. Translate data into a compelling narrative.
Own the regular reporting cadence for P&C - headcount, attrition, hiring, engagement and other key metrics - ensuring data is accurate and delivered on time.
Manage cyclical and compliance reporting obligations, including WGEA and other regulatory requirements, ensuring submissions are accurate, on time and well-documented.
Translate stakeholder questions into well-structured reports and analyses, working with FP&A and other teams where data spans multiple systems.
Continuously improve reporting products to reduce dependence on ad hoc data pulls and enable self-serve access to People data.
Maintain documentation for system configurations, data definitions, reporting logic and standard operating procedures.
Required Skills & Experience:
Experience and technical skills:
Hands on experience administrating and configuring HRIS platforms, including workflows, field setup, permissions and integrations. Experience with HiBob is preferred but not required.
Experience working across integrated People systems (e.g. HRIS, ATS, engagement platforms etc) and troubleshooting cross-system data issues, including setting up and maintaining out-of-the-box integrations between platforms.
Solid understanding of how data flows across interconnected People systems, with an eye for where integrity breaks down.
Strong data analysis skills - comfortable working with large datasets, building reports and writing formulas to surface meaningful insights.
Demonstrated experience building dashboards and reports that generate clear, actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders.
Familiarity with low-code automation tools to reduce manual data handling and process steps.
Working knowledge of privacy principles as they apply to People data, including data access controls and audit requirements.
Demonstrated experience working with cross-functional teams, including talent, FP&A, IT, RevOps and beyond.
Mindset and behaviours:
Data integrity first: You treat clean, accurate data as a non-negotiable foundation, not a nice-to-have.
Ownership-oriented: You take end-to-end ownership of your work, operating independently and driving outcomes without needing close supervision. You don't wait to be asked to fix what's broken.
Proactive and improvement-focused: You anticipate challenges before they surface, take initiative, and create your own roadmap of continuous improvement rather than waiting to be directed.
AI and automation curious: You're open to using AI tools and actively look for opportunities to automate repetitive work — not because it's expected, but because you genuinely see it as a better way to operate.
Stakeholder-focused: You translate business questions into clear reporting and communicate findings in plain language.
Pragmatic: You know when to automate, when to document, and when a simple fix is the right call. You manage competing priorities well and reliably deliver to agreed timeframes.
Collaborative: A natural partner to the P&C Engineer and People Ops team, comfortable working at the boundary of technical and operational work.
