- Lead stakeholder engagement and workshops, facilitating interviews, playback sessions, and cross-functional discussions to align business, data, and technology teams and ensure governance requirements are embedded into solutions.
- Support data quality and management initiatives through data analysis, profiling, root-cause investigation, remediation planning, and measurement of governance and data quality KPIs, using SQL and reporting/data analysis tools where required.
