Our Business Services team is here to make sure that Data and Digital thrive like a well-oiled machine. We're the ones who help set the course, gather resources, and make sure things run smoothly - think of us as the ultimate planners and communicators, making sure everyone is on the same page!

We're like the superhero support squad for Data and Digital.

Mōu | About you

As our Operational & Reporting Analyst, you will bring your expertise to the table in various technical and professional domains. You will support the national Te Whatu Ora Data & Digital Group Manager Reporting and Assurance in crafting and maintaining a range of operational reports that cover both national and regional aspects. Your focus also extends to operational reporting for applications and infrastructure, all geared towards enhancing operational performance, customer insights, and data-driven decisions across the organisation.

You will be all about creating and nurturing operational reporting frameworks, metrics, and dashboards that help us keep an eye on those crucial key performance indicators (KPIs) and drive our business objectives forward. Ensuring that the reports submitted meet the highest internal and external standards and are presented in a clear and digestible format for everyone from our Management to our Executive and Board members.

Your role doesn't stop there – you will be hands-on in implementing and maintaining reporting tools and systems. From extracting and transforming data to visualizing it, you've got it covered. You will dive into complex data sets, and be on the lookout for trends, insights, and opportunities for improvement and investment. Your findings will be translated into actionable recommendations that are presented to our senior management and stakeholders.

Upholding data governance processes and adhering to data privacy and security regulations will be part of your commitment. You will be all about passing on your knowledge too, helping our Data & Digital team members excel in reporting best practices and data analysis techniques. As backup to the Group Manager Reporting and Assurance, you will be there to provide support to the Senior Leadership Team and manage submissions to the Executive Leadership Team and Data, Digital, and Innovation Committee when needed.

Preference will be given to applications of significantly affected Kaimahi through the change process.

Te Whatu Ora supports flexible and hybrid working for our kaimahi. In roles that don't require an in-person element, we encourage you to ‘work from where you are.' We want our national teams to be made up of diverse people from across the motu, just like our health system.

Tō mātou whakahaere ki te tika, te rerekētanga, me te whai wāhi mai |Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion

Our name, Te Whatu Ora, means ‘the weaving of wellness'. Whatu is the combining together of people, resources, organisations, thoughts and actions for the betterment and wellbeing of all. Whatu is also a direct reference to the pupil of the eye, and the vision required of the new entity and system.

At Te Whatu Ora we acknowledge and respect our people's diversity and spiritual needs, ensuring a safe workplace that is a whānau orientated and supportive environment. We are working towards a system that better meets the complex demands of a growing population, addresses the persistent inequalities experienced by Māori and ensures greater access, experience and outcomes for those traditionally not well served by the system – Māori, Pacific and Disabled People.
