Company Overview
What’s the best place we’ve ever built? The place where we work. At Home Depot, our goal is to provide the highest level of service, the broadest selection of products, and the most competitive prices. As the world’s largest home improvement specialty retailer, we operate more than 2,200 retail stores across North America. And each of our associates are focused one thing — helping our customers build and improve their homes, businesses, and ultimately their lives.
Position Purpose:
As a Senior Analyst in Asset Protection, you will play a pivotal role by proactively identifying and resolving critical business concerns through in-depth data analysis. You will be responsible for reverse engineering data anomalies to identify root causes and quantify their global impact, providing clear and actionable insights. Through collaboration with cross-functional teams, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of both ideal operational workflows and the origins of deviations. Your insights will be crucial in identifying the impact of these concerns on the company, enabling data-driven decision-making and the implementation of effective solutions. Additionally, you will support field-facing tools that our AP partners utilize in their research by providing maintenance and enhancements. This role requires a highly analytical and detail-oriented individual with a strong operational understanding and the ability to drive projects to successful completion.
Key Responsibilities:
- Perform data gathering tasks and analytics – identify trends, develop solutions, project/strategy planning and data utilization.
- Produce documents for teams and leadership to review and utilize. Deliver presentations to teams and executive leaders and sponsors. Synthesize findings and make recommendations to upper management.
- Build skills and knowledge including self-development, team knowledge and customer (internal) knowledge.
Direct Manager/Direct Reports:

- No associates report to this role, but requires the leadership of a work group: assign and review work and train to other team members (but not hiring, firing or disciplinary action)
Travel Requirements:
- Typically requires overnight travel less than 10% of the time.
Physical Requirements:
- Most of the time is spent sitting in a comfortable position and there is frequent opportunity to move about. On rare occasions there may be a need to move or lift light articles.
