Job description

Talent Analytics Lead

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 organization, 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

• Own end-to-end delivery of analytics projects — from data exploration and modeling to deployment and impact measurement
• Collaborate with the product owner to refine product requirements and identify high-value analytics opportunities
• Design and build scalable analytics pipelines and reusable tools or dashboards
• Bring statistical and machine learning models into practice to support decision-making
• Translate complex data findings into clear narratives for both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Over time, hire, coach, and lead a small team of analytics professionals
• Contribute to product strategy, roadmaps, and cross-functional planning

How this opportunity is different

Aon’s breadth of product offerings and global reach give us massive access to data and information, which in turn provides a unique opportunity to innovate and build and differentiating solutions for clients. But for Aon to capitalize on these opportunities, it requires a globally coordinated effort, an effort that the Aon Centre for Innovation and Analytics (ACIA) in Singapore is heavily investing towards.

We’re looking for a technical, hands-on Analytics Lead to help shape and scale our Talent Analytics capabilities. In this role, you’ll initially work independently to design and deliver high-impact analytics solutions. As the team matures, you’ll grow into a leadership position, building and mentoring a team of analytics practitioners.

You’ll partner closely with a product owner who brings strong domain and business context and is looking for a true technical counterpart — someone comfortable with data engineering, statistical modeling, and solution development who can help take ideas from concept to production.

Skills and experience that will lead to success

• 5–8+ years of hands-on experience in data science, analytics, or data engineering roles
• BA/BS/MS/PHD in economics, math, statistics, computer science or equivalent
• Strong programming skills in Python and/or R
• Experience or interest in talent, people, or HR Analytics or labor economics
• Experience with data platforms and tools such as Databricks, Spark, or equivalent big data environments
• Solid foundation in statistics, experimentation, and/or predictive modeling
• Comfortable working autonomously in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
• Strong communication skills and ability to work across technical and business teams
• Prior experience leading or mentoring junior analysts or data scientists

Nice-to-Have:

• Familiarity with tools like dbt, Airflow, SQL-based ETL, or modern data stacks
• Experience with software development lifecycle (SDLC), agile/scrum methodologies, and app development concepts
• Exposure to product development or embedded analytics products
