Role description
JOB TITLE: Data Analyst (EPM/PPM & Finance)
LOCATION: Hybrid Employment / MN based
EMPLOYMENT TYPE: Contract
ABOUT THE ROLE
Our client is reworking major parts of their performance and project management ecosystem and needs a hands-on data analyst (a do‑er, not an architect) to establish the baseline data foundation that future maturity will build on. You’ll partner closely with Strategy & Operations and a Solution Architect to document current-state business/data models, map data flows, and create stand‑alone, source‑of‑truth documentation ahead of a large release.
DAY TO DAY
• Baseline the data landscape
• Build stand-alone business and data models (not just embedded in design docs).
• Create data flow diagrams (DFDs) and entity relationship diagrams (ERDs) for core EPM/PPM processes.
• Produce source-to-target mappings, system-of-record definitions, and data lineage.
• Compile a data dictionary/metadata catalog and naming standards.
• Stabilize and de-risk upcoming releases
• Extract and consolidate all data-specific documentation tied to releases over the next 6 months.
• Identify gaps, inconsistencies, and break/fix items; escalate and track to closure.
• Validate assumptions with SMEs; lock down baselines before analytics/dashboard work begins.
• Coordinate across functional and technical teams
• Work within a functional-facing group to capture requirements and current state.
• Translate business needs into concrete, reusable data documentation assets.
• Maintain light metrics on progress and quality; enable handoffs and knowledge transfer.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
• 4–6 years of professional experience in data analysis / data modeling / data documentation.
• Demonstrated experience building DFDs, ERDs, source-to-target maps, and data dictionaries.
• Strong Microsoft Excel skills; solid SQL for validation and profiling.
• Experience with EPM/PPM data and processes; familiarity with Oracle (on‑prem → Cloud) and Loomis PPM.
• Proven ability to work with minimal direction, prioritize a “laundry list,” and deliver crisp documentation in a dynamic environment.
• Excellent communication skills with business and technical stakeholders.
