Analytics Assistant Jobs in Oregon (NOW HIRING)

Join the Workforce Planning (WFP) organization within US Retail Markets (USRM) Claims & Service where you'll provide strategic analysis and support to the Claims & Service organization, delivering recommendations that span long-term claims and call volume forecasts, staffing and hiring needs, and partner strategy, all the way to day-to-day management of our internal and external resources.

 As an Assistant Director, Advanced Analytics on the Work Effort Assessment team, you will play a critical part in optimizing our staffing models and workload management strategies using data-driven insights and process analytics.

The ideal candidate has experience in not only developing a framework and strategy for managing a complex capability but also executes on cross-team implementation of identified recommendations.

We are seeking someone with experience in Claims process data collection that can execute on cross organization initiatives. This role will operationalize complex, multi-stakeholder studies using intelligent tools that gather big data to identify operational improvements and efficiency gains. You will not directly manage a team of analysts, but you will lead through expertise, structured thinking, and executive-level communication. The models you help design will be built by data science and analytics engineering partners; your role is to own the strategy, framework, and architecture of the transition.

What you'll do:

Strategy & Framework Development

• Assess overall design and structure of broader projects and provide insights and recommendations on enhancement opportunities. Define what "good" looks like.
• Lead the design of a complexity-based claims classification framework, defining tiers, complexity drivers, and governance processes for how claims are categorized and re-evaluated over time
• Develop the methodology for transitioning staffing models from stick-count-based productivity assumptions to work-effort-adjusted capacity models that reflect true time-on-task variation across claim types and complexity levels

Staffing and Forecast Redesign based on effort

• Partner with volume forecasting and data science teams to redesign demand forecasting at a more granular level - by claim type, complexity tier, channel, and line of business - to serve as the upstream input to work-effort-based staffing
• Design or evaluate approaches to ongoing time-on-task measurement (e.g., system log analysis, work item metadata, structured time studies) to keep standards current as products, processes, and claim mixes evolve

• Ensure staffing strategy and model logic align with broader USRM Claims goals and account for expected shifts in volume, mix and complexity

Operationalization & Governance

• With LOB process and analytics teams, partner on improvement initiatives focused on redundancies and automation opportunities and perform detailed process variation and outlier analysis to pinpoint inefficiencies
• Develop and maintain standardized metrics, benchmarking frameworks, and reporting structures across studies
• Meets with supervisor to discuss project status and present recommendations, performs special projects as requested.
