Senior People Science Analyst

Senior People Science Analyst (12 month FTC)

Location: Berlin

Work Arrangement: 2 days per week in-office at Culture Amp's Berlin office

You will:

• Lead customer discovery and own studies end to end, from clarifying the business problem and shaping the research question through to design, delivery and recommendations
• Design, clean, combine and explore platform and customer-supplied datasets using robust, reusable approaches that protect participant privacy
• Conduct rigorous statistical analyses across engagement, lifecycle, performance and team effectiveness data, generating actionable and, where appropriate, predictive insights tied to business outcomes
• Use AI tools to accelerate research, analysis, synthesis and communication, while validating outputs, protecting customer data and maintaining methodological rigour
• Collaborate with customer-facing People Scientists on advanced HR analytics projects, applying sound judgment about methods, limitations and trade-offs
• Identify the themes and stories most likely to help organisations improve their culture and business outcomes, then communicate them through clear reports, presentations and internal and external thought leadership
• Create reusable methods, templates and assets; improve internal processes and practices; and negotiate scope, priorities and timelines to deliver high-quality work

You have:

• An advanced degree (Masters or PhD) in organisational psychology, quantitative social science, economics or a related field, or equivalent applied research experience
• Applied experience using quantitative research methods on people or workforce data, ideally connecting survey results to business outcomes
• Strong command of inferential statistics, including regression, multi-level analysis and longitudinal analysis, and the judgment to know which method suits which question
• Working proficiency in R, with real experience cleaning and combining messy datasets from multiple sources
• Experience owning complex analytical work end to end, from an initially ambiguous question through to a clear recommendation or conclusion
• A track record of building decks for HR and executive audiences, and presenting them well
• Strong practical understanding of AI tools and workflows, with the judgment to use them to improve quality, efficiency and insight without replacing methodological rigour
• Experience managing stakeholder expectations on scope, timelines and priorities, including when trade-offs or constraints need to be made explicit
• Experience sharing expertise, improving team practice or creating reusable approaches that help others do better work

You are:

• Curious. You ask open questions, get to the underlying problem and resist offering a solution before you understand it
• An independent owner. You can move complex work forward with limited direction, while knowing when to seek input or challenge an assumption
• A translator. You can make a complex finding land with someone who has no statistical training, without dumbing it down
• A thoughtful methodological partner. You are confident about where your expertise is deep, honest about where it isn't, and clear about the implications
• A multiplier. You share what you know, give useful feedback and leave the team with better methods or assets than you found it with
• Open to feedback and quick to act on it
• Energised by intellectually complex work, and comfortable with the ambiguity that comes with open research questions
