Workforce Analyst (Remote, US, Remote)
About this role
About the role
The Workforce Analyst provides the analytical foundation for effective resource planning and execution across the Rapid Data Center Deployment (RDD) organization. Reporting to the Workforce Manager, this role is responsible for converting complex project schedules, contractor inputs, and timekeeping data into actionable workforce insights. Unlike account-dedicated management roles, the Workforce Analyst operates across single or multiple program accounts as needed, ensuring consistent operational visibility, demand modeling, and labor tracking. The ideal candidate is highly analytical, detail-oriented, and operationally focused, with the ability to translate project schedules, resource plans, partner staffing inputs, and timekeeping data into actionable workforce insights. This individual must be comfortable working across PMO, Workforce Management, onsite resource leads, partner teams, Finance, Professional Services, and other stakeholders to identify workforce gaps, validate labor information, escalate staffing risks, and improve workforce tracking discipline.
Location: Saline, MI
