Job description

People Analytics Senior Consultant – London (hybrid) - Fixed Term Contract (1 year)

People Analytics uses data and analytics to help clients understand trends in their workforce and how they relate to business performance. This is an emerging and fast‑growing area of analytics: we leverage our vast database of proprietary datasets and work with our clients’ data to answer questions such as: how do I acquire the best people? How and where should I deploy them? How do I develop and retain my best talent? How do I drive growth and business performance?

Aon is in the business of better decisions

At Aon, we shape decisions for the better to protect and enrich the lives of people around the world.

As an organisation, we are united through trust as one inclusive team and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.

What the day will look like

• Strong data analytics expertise – leverage Aon’s proprietary datasets to deliver innovative analytics solutions to drive business results and better client outcomes
• Skilled storyteller – lead client conversations using data and industry insights and communicate complex quantitative analyses in a clear, precise, and actionable manner
• Demonstrate solid project planning skills – work across the organisation and liaise with our business consultants, technical staff, and global data science team to deliver and/or project‑manage workforce analytics consulting engagements (e.g. pay equity, strategic workforce planning, predictive analytics)
• Identify current and future needs among our client base to pursue new or expanded opportunities.
• Employ strong consulting skills and business acumen to support sales conversations with current and prospective clients and act as a trusted senior client advisor.
• Demonstrate commercial leadership – understand and interpret complex client requirements and problems, whether they are structured or unstructured in nature, and shape a solution into a proposal for a client.
• Contribute to proposal writing and support sales conversations with current and prospective clients.

Skills and experience that will lead to success

As a People Analytics Consultant, your skills and experience will ideally include:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Data Science, Economics, Human Resources, I/O Psychology, Statistics, or related field
• Relevant work experience in corporate and/or consulting related to HR or Business Analytics (Talent/Human Capital Analytics preferred).
• Expert knowledge of major HR functions and strong experience connecting HR metrics to business results preferred.
• Deep expertise in statistical modelling techniques and analytics technologies.
• Good understanding of advanced data visualization tools (e.g. Tableau or PowerBI) and analytical "story telling" to present data in a way that’s insightful.
• Experience working with large‑scale workforce datasets using data manipulation tools such as Python or R preferred.
• Intellectual curiosity, innovation, passion, speed and resilience in dealing with data.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, ability to prioritise and multi‑task effectively in a fast‑paced environment.

How this opportunity is different

This role is part of the People Analytics group offering consulting services to clients around the globe. As a member of this team and Aon’s broader Human Capital Solutions business, you will use your analytical and business skills to drive the conversation with our clients by articulating compelling and engaging data‑driven stories. You will have direct involvement in, and leadership of, client engagements, support the business development process, and you will contribute to building our intellectual property.

In addition to our comprehensive benefits package, we encourage an inclusive workforce. Plus, our agile environment allows you to manage your wellbeing and work/life balance, ensuring you can be your best self at Aon.
