Job Description

 

At Daiichi Sankyo, we are united by a single purpose, to improve lives around the world through innovative medicines. With a legacy of innovation since 1899, a presence in more than 30 countries, and more than 19,000 employees, we are advancing breakthrough therapies in oncology, cardiovascular disease, rare diseases, and immune disorders. Guided by our 2030 vision to "be an innovative global healthcare company contributing to the sustainable development of society", we are shaping a healthier, more hopeful future for patients, their families, and society.

Job Summary

As Daiichi Sankyo continues its growth journey, our ability to anticipate future talent needs is a key business imperative. We are building a world-class Global Strategic Workforce Planning (SWP) & Insights capability under the leadership of the Vice President (Head of Global Talent, Performance and Development) and the Senior Director (Global Head of Global SWP). Be the technical engine of this capability and its trusted data partner: build, automate and own the data analytics solutions that power our workforce strategy, and lead the sourcing, validation and modelling of the data those solutions depend on, working directly with stakeholders across our globalizing network. Support the delivery of the SWP process and approach through the design, delivery and automation of the process, analytics and insights. This is a senior, hands-on data analyst role combining deep technical expertise with the credibility to lead data conversations. Partner closely with the Senior Director, who owns executive engagement and senior-stakeholder facilitation, and the Director, who owns the analytical framing and leads the consultative projects and working sessions with BUs and HR. Collaborate with HR Information Systems and Processes to ensure data models, platforms and tools align with global workforce analytics needs. Scope includes DSE, DSI and DSJ, and may extend to other regions/management units as the business model evolves.

Responsibilities

Workforce Planning, Analytics & Insights
  • Build, maintain and enhance the workforce analytics models supporting strategic workforce planning and delivery model design, delivering against the scope, methodology and design direction defined by the Snr Director / Director
  • Run supply/demand forecasting and scenario modelling: build the scenarios that explore the outcomes of different strategies, and analyze workforce segmentation (critical roles, skills, geographies, capacity) to surface talent risks, gaps and trends
  • Analyze global workforce trends, turnover and talent-pipeline data to surface risks and opportunities
  • Deliver the predictive and prescriptive analytics — the models and outputs — that inform strategic workforce decisions and talent deployment (the Director and Senior Director own the resulting recommendations and decisions)
  • Translate requirements into robust data models and clear, reliable outputs — co-running data-requirement working sessions with stakeholders to do so
  • Provide analytical support, as capacity allows, to other TPD CoE teams (e.g. talent partners, Inclusion & Diversity)

Data Governance & Reporting

  • Lead the technical development, maintenance and automation of our core analytics products — the global SWP dashboard, the DS scenario-modelling tool, and recurring reports — delivering actionable insights to HR and business leaders
  • Aggregate and integrate workforce data from HR and business/ finance systems into reliable, analysis-ready datasets (cleaning, validation, transformation, merging, aggregation)
  • Lead data collection and validation across the network: build trusted relationships with data owners and stakeholders across regions to source, reconcile and validate the data our models require — the critical groundwork in a federating, newly-global organization
  • Partner with HRIS teams to enhance upstream data structures and reporting capability for global talent metrics
  • Act as the team's technical expert on complex data and technology challenges, including access rights, data privacy and security protocols
  • Write and maintain clear documentation for code, data structures and processes to enable knowledge transfer

Strategic Partnership

  • Collaborate with Global Talent, Performance & Development leadership and with HR, Finance, Corporate Business Planning and business stakeholders to deliver the SWP priorities on the data and delivery side
  • Support the Senior Director's and Director's planning discussions with analytical input and interpretation
  • Contribute to alignment with enterprise frameworks and planning standards
  • Provide high-level support for operational workforce planning by keeping data and tools accurate and reliable, and managing expectations on technical delivery
  • Present and explain complex findings clearly, building the visualizations and data narratives that make insight land
  • Work collaboratively with the team to provide high-level support for operational workforce planning by ensuring the data and tools are accurate, reliable and meet business needs, managing expectations from an implementation and technical delivery perspective

Continuous Improvement

  • Stay current on workforce-analytics best practice, emerging technologies and market trends, especially in AI and workforce planning
  • Identify and lead opportunities to automate and improve efficiency through advanced tools and methods
  • Evaluate new data sources to strengthen workforce insight
  • Contribute to building analytical capability and sophistication within HR
