The role combines office-based reporting and performance monitoring with regular interaction with production teams on the shop floor.

We are looking for someone who is analytical, highly organised, detail-oriented and confident communicating with different people.

Key Responsibilities as a Work Analyst:

• Monitor and review production performance, ensuring that information and reported figures are accurate and up to date.
• Check operational data, identify discrepancies and investigate any differences between planned and actual performance.
• Prepare and maintain regular performance reports and key performance indicators (KPIs).
• Review productivity, labour hours, capacity and operational efficiency, highlighting areas that may require further investigation.
• Spend time working with production teams on the shop floor to understand processes, gather information and follow up on performance-related matters.
• Communicate with colleagues, supervisors and managers across different levels of the organisation.
• Support the identification of operational issues and opportunities to improve working practices and efficiency.
• Maintain accurate records, reports and departmental documentation.
• Work closely with the Works Analysis team to ensure consistent processes and reporting standards.
• Support continuous improvement activities and help promote efficient ways of working.

The Candidate:

• Excellent attention to detail with the ability to identify errors, inconsistencies and missing information.
• Very good organisational and time management skills.
• Comfortable working with data, checking information and maintaining accurate records.
• Good analytical and problem-solving abilities.
• Confident communicating with people at different levels of an organisation.
• Comfortable interacting with production teams and spending time on the shop floor, rather than working exclusively at a desk.
• Good IT skills, particularly Microsoft Excel and reporting tools.
• A proactive approach with the confidence to ask questions, investigate issues and follow things through.
