I am working with a well‑established, international insurance organisation to recruit an HR Data Analyst on a 12‑month fixed term contract, commencing ideally in early to mid‑June to allow for a structured handover ahead of maternity leave in July.


This role sits within a collaborative HR team and combines HR data reporting with structured HR administration responsibilities.

  • Act as the central owner of HR data for the London office, with visibility across international locations.
  • Maintain accuracy and integrity of HR data within BambooHR.

  • Support onboarding and leaver processes.
  • Assist with payroll inputs and benefits administration (not payroll ownership).
  • Provide HR data insights and respond to stakeholder requests.
  • Operate within a regulated environment where reporting deadlines are fixed and process discipline is important.

Candidate Profile

  • Experienced in HR Data, HR Reporting or People Analytics roles.
  • Highly proficient in Excel (pivot tables, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, formulas; basic macros advantageous).
  • Confident producing Board‑ready reporting in PowerPoint.
  • Experienced working with HRIS systems (BambooHR desirable but not essential).
  • Detail‑oriented and comfortable working independently.
  • Organised, structured and deadline‑driven.

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool.

So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.
