The role provides leadership on data quality strategy, controls, and continuous improvement, enabling confident decision-making across reporting, analytics, and operational processes.
This role works closely with business, analytics, and technology teams to identify data quality risks, define controls, and drive sustainable improvements at source.

- Issue Management & Root Cause Resolution
- Leading investigation and triage of data quality issues impacting business decisions or reporting.
- Identifying root causes and working with data owners and technical teams to resolve issues at source.
- Tracking issues to resolution and preventing recurrence through sustainable fixes.
- Data Quality Reporting & Insight
- Providing clear visibility of data quality health, trends, and risks to stakeholders.
- Translating technical data quality issues into business impact and prioritised actions.
- Supporting assurance, audit, and governance forums with robust evidence of data quality management.
