Not a generalist Data Scientist role.

I’m looking for a Data Scientist / Data Analyst with proven labour optimisation experience to support a major workforce productivity programme within a large, multi-site business.

The two things I need to see:

• Proven labour optimisation experience – delivering measurable improvements across labour productivity, wage % to sales, sales per labour hour, scheduling or labour deployment.
• Strong Finance & Operations stakeholder management – able to turn analysis into actions and measurable commercial results.

What you’ll need:

• 5+ years’ analytics / data science experience in a multi-site environment – hospitality, retail, leisure or QSR preferred
• Advanced SQL and data warehouse experience – Snowflake / dbt advantageous
• Strong Excel financial modelling and understanding of P&L / labour costs
• Strong BI development – Power BI, Tableau, Looker or Omni
• Experience with rota, time & attendance and payroll data

The role

• Labour productivity & workforce analytics
• Labour modelling and demand-led scheduling
• Identifying and sizing productivity opportunities
• Working across Data, Finance and Operations

If you have the labour optimisation + analytics + stakeholder experience, I’d like to speak with you.
