Offer description

Your role at St John of God Health Care

You will be responsible for developing and implementing analytics solutions that uncover patterns, predict trends, and provide meaningful insights. Your work will drive positive outcomes for patients, caregivers, and the organisation, with guidance from the Analytics Lead - Performance.

In this role, you will also support Business Intelligence and self-service tool development using tools such as Power BI, with a focus on human-centred design and user experience (UX). Collaborating closely with Hospital Operations, Group Strategy and Planning (including EPMO), data engineering teams, and other teams, you will deploy analytical solutions into production environments.

The Position

1. Design and create interactive dashboards to communicate complex data insights in an accessible and self-service manner using visualisation tools such as Power BI.
2. Develop and maintain standardised reporting templates that promote self-service reporting.
3. Create clear and compelling visualisations (charts, graphs, dashboards) to effectively communicate insights and findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
4. Work with the data engineering team to build structured datasets suitable for predictive analysis and modelling.
5. Ensure appropriate testing has occurred, all change control procedures are met and all changes are documented.
6. Work collaboratively with business users to understand their requirements and provide analytical support for strategic and operational initiatives.
7. Apply statistical analysis to identify patterns, correlations, and trends within large and multi-dimensional datasets.
8. Address adhoc requests from Hospital Operations and other areas as assigned in a timely manner.

You will have a minimum of two years relevant experience, preferably in the healthcare industry, with a degree qualification in Data Science, Computer Science, Health Informatics, Statistics, or other quantitative discipline.

To succeed, you will have strong data wrangling skills using SQL, Python, or R, and knowledge of tools like Excel, Power BI, Tableau, or other data visualisation platforms. Proficiency in data analysis tools and techniques, including statistical analysis, data visualisation, and data mining to extract insights from complex healthcare datasets, is essential.

Above all, people will be at the core of everything you do, supporting our Mission and Values.
