ADP is seeking a Vice President of Reporting & Analytics Product Development to lead the strategy, engineering, and delivery of ADP’s enterprise Reporting and Analytics platform. Data is at the center of every organization’s most important workforce decisions. Clients need more than traditional reports and disconnected analytics tools—they need an integrated experience that makes it easy to access trusted data, understand what is happening, uncover why it is happening, and determine what action to take next. This executive will lead the evolution of ADP’s Reporting and Analytics capabilities into a unified, intelligent data experience embedded across ADP’s global Human Capital Management solutions. The platform will bring together operational reporting, dashboards, visualization, advanced analytics, benchmarking, natural-language exploration, and AI-powered insights—enabling clients to move seamlessly from a business question to a trusted answer and, ultimately, to informed action. The VP will be responsible for the technology vision, architecture, development, delivery, and operation of this strategic platform. The role requires a leader who can modernize a large-scale global platform while continuing to deliver reliable capabilities to clients who depend on ADP every day. The VP will lead a global, diverse, multidisciplinary organization spanning software engineering, data engineering, architecture, user experience, quality engineering, and production operations. This leader will work closely with Product Management, Data Science, AI, Security, Infrastructure, and ADP Business Unit leaders to create a common platform that meets the unique needs of ADP’s HCM products while delivering a consistent and integrated client experience. Key Responsibilities • Executive Leadership: Help shape ADP’s enterprise data, reporting, analytics, and AI strategy, ensuring technology investments align with client needs, business priorities, and ADP’s long-term growth objectives. • Unified Reporting and Analytics Vision: Lead the creation of an integrated experience that brings together reporting, dashboards, visualization, analytics, benchmarking, insights, and AI-powered exploration. Enable users to move naturally from understanding what happened to why it happened, what may happen next, and what action they should take. • Platform Strategy and Roadmap: Partner with Product Management and Business Unit leaders to define and execute a multiyear platform roadmap, including modernization priorities, shared capabilities, adoption milestones, and measurable business outcomes. • Enterprise Platform Development: Build reusable, scalable platform services that can be embedded across ADP’s HCM products while accommodating differences in data models, client segments, geographies, regulatory environments, and user needs. • Reporting Modernization: Evolve traditional reporting capabilities into a modern, intuitive, self-service experience that simplifies report creation, improves discoverability, reduces complexity, and enables clients to access trusted information more quickly. • Analytics and Insights: Expand the platform’s capabilities beyond traditional reporting to include interactive analytics, visual exploration, benchmarking, forecasting, recommendations, and actionable workforce insights. • AI and Agentic Experiences: Advance the use of generative and agentic AI to allow clients and associates to interact with data using natural language. Ensure AI-generated answers are accurate, explainable, appropriately governed, and grounded in trusted enterprise data. • Semantic Data Strategy: Lead the development of a common semantic layer that translates complex HCM data into consistent business concepts, metrics, and relationships. Ensure that reporting, analytics, and AI experiences use common definitions and deliver consistent answers. • Engineering Excellence: Build and mentor a world-class engineering organization focused on scalable architecture, secure development, automation, observability, maintainability, and continuous improvement. • Architecture and Technology Strategy: Establish the architecture for a cloud-enabled, API-first, metadata-driven Reporting and Analytics platform capable of supporting large data volumes, complex queries, global scale, and near-real-time experiences. • Data Trust, Governance, and Security: Partner with enterprise data, privacy, legal, and security leaders to ensure appropriate data lineage, access controls, auditability, retention, privacy, residency, and regulatory compliance. Build client confidence by making insights transparent, explainable, and traceable to trusted sources. • Client Experience: Champion an intuitive, accessible, and consistent experience across ADP products. Apply user-centered design principles to reduce complexity and make sophisticated data capabilities usable by practitioners, managers, executives, analysts, and employees. • Business Unit Partnership: Collaborate with leaders across ADP’s businesses to understand product-specific needs, establish shared priorities, drive adoption, and balance enterprise standardization with differentiated market requirements. • Customer and Market Alignment: Engage with clients, prospects, Sales, Service, Implementation, and Marketing to understand evolving needs, validate platform direction, and identify opportunities to strengthen ADP’s competitive position. • Operational Excellence: Maintain a high standard of platform availability, performance, resilience, and supportability. Establish service-level objectives, proactive monitoring, capacity planning, and disciplined incident and problem-management practices. • Product and Delivery Execution: Lead all phases of development—from discovery and architecture through implementation, launch, adoption, and continuous improvement—while maintaining transparency around progress, risks, dependencies, and outcomes. • Quality and Compliance: Establish comprehensive quality engineering practices that include automated testing, performance validation, security testing, data-quality controls, accessibility, and regulatory compliance. • Value Realization: Define and measure outcomes such as client adoption, time to insight, report completion time, platform performance, client satisfaction, support-effort reduction, implementation efficiency, and revenue enablement. • Risk Management: Proactively identify architectural, operational, security, data, delivery, and adoption risks. Work across organizational boundaries to resolve issues before they affect clients or strategic commitments. • Talent and Organizational Leadership: Attract, develop, and retain exceptional global talent. Create an inclusive, accountable culture in which leaders and associates understand the mission, collaborate effectively, and are empowered to deliver meaningful outcomes. • Innovation and Continuous Learning: Promote experimentation, technical upskilling, and the responsible adoption of emerging technologies.
