Key Tasks and Responsibilities

• End to End Ownership of the Data Quality Issue Lifecycle: Oversee triage, root‑cause analysis, assignment, resolution, and closure of data issues. Ensure SLAs are met, blockers escalated, and stakeholders updated. Maintain a clear and transparent view of issue status and ageing.
• Lead and guide offshore Data Quality Analysts: Provide daily direction, prioritisation, and quality oversight. Review offshore work outputs to ensure accuracy and consistency.  Coach analysts to improve investigation quality, documentation clarity, and prevention thinking.
• Work directly with stakeholders across the business: Act as the primary point of contact for UK‑based data owners, SMEs, and operations teams. Run workshops or playback sessions to explain issues, remediation plans, and expected changes. Translate technical findings into clear business terms.
• Partner with IT and Operations to deliver fixes: Collaborate with technology teams to validate technical defects and ensure production fixes are implemented correctly. Align with Operations to embed new processes that prevent recurrence. Support change assessments where fixes intersect with projects or system releases.
• Drive structural data quality improvements: Identify recurring issue patterns and propose prevent‑rather‑than‑correct actions. Contribute to data rule definitions, quality controls, validation logic, and monitoring dashboards. Recommend updates to data standards, lineage, and ownership models.
• Reporting and governance: Produce weekly/monthly DQ reporting for management. Ensure all issues are documented to an audit‑ready standard. Support Data Governance forums with insights on emerging risks and thematic trends.
