• Maintaining strict data governance, quality metrics, and standards for People data and reporting, ensuring consistent use and measurement of key KPIs.
• Collaborating with end users to identify downstream data needs (e.g., rostering, benefits, and survey systems) and opportunities for improved data management.
• Proposing system improvements to maintain absolute data integrity while presenting complex data trends and analysis in a clear, business-understandable format.
• Recognising and escalating potential risks or data issues in a timely manner to support broader programmes and activities.
• Delivering technical training and guidance to colleagues on system and reporting-related queries to support long-term self-service models.
