About the FCA and team

We regulate financial services firms in the UK, to keep financial markets fair, thriving and effective. By joining us, you’ll play a key part in protecting consumers, driving economic growth, and shaping the future of UK finance services.

We are transforming to become a data-led regulator that identifies and runs towards future problems while embracing the opportunities ahead. As part of this journey, our People function is evolving to ensure that high-quality people data, insight and analysis help the FCA make better decisions about its workforce.

The People Data & Reporting Analyst will play an important role in turning people data into clear, useful insight. Working closely with colleagues across HR Analytics, HR Systems and the wider People function, you will support regular reporting, respond to data and insight requests, help improve the quality of our people data, and contribute to analytical work that supports strategic workforce decisions.

Role responsibilities

  • Produce regular people reporting and management information, ensuring outputs are accurate, timely and clearly presented, enabling stakeholders to make informed workforce decisions
  • Respond to ad hoc data and insight requests from HR colleagues and wider stakeholders, helping them understand workforce trends, patterns and issues to support effective decision-making
  • Use Excel, Workday reporting and other analytical tools to extract, check, analyse and present people data, providing valuable insights that support business decisions
  • Assist with data quality checks, identifying anomalies and working with colleagues to investigate and resolve issues, ensuring confidence in the accuracy and reliability of people data
  • Support the development of dashboards, reports and insight products that help the People function and senior leaders make evidence-based decisions and shape strategic priorities
  • Translate data into clear summaries, commentary and visual outputs that are accessible to non-technical audiences, making complex information easy to understand and act upon
  • Work collaboratively with HR Systems and wider HR teams to understand data sources, definitions and reporting requirements, helping to deliver consistent and meaningful people insights
  • Contribute to continuous improvement activity, including improving reporting processes, documentation and data governance practices, enhancing efficiency, accuracy and the overall quality of reporting outputs

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
