We work closely with key business stakeholders to gather feedback, evaluate success, and proactively identify opportunities for ongoing improvement. Activities will range from running statistical analysis to providing recommendations to the business, designing and developing automated Tableau dashboards built upon ML models, and participating in the rollout and ongoing education of the resources we provide. You will partner with sales leadership, sales finance, sales planning, and other functional areas within ADP to improve seller and leader productivity.

• Able to operate successfully in a lean, fast‑paced organization; a proactive, and action‑oriented team player
