• Partner with the Group Data Office, Business Bank Technology and other relevant stakeholders to embed data management practices and improve data maturity across the Domain
• Engage with leaders across the Domain to provide visibility and influence over enterprise data practices
• Work and collaborate with Crew Leads, product owners and other functions to execute the data strategies, data products roadmap, meet data delivery requirements and business priorities. This includes providing hands-on support related to data management processes, artefacts and deliverables where required
