About the role

Help shape how data drives the business

We are expanding our Data & Analytics function within Group Information Services (GIS) and are looking for a Senior Data Consultant to establish and grow our presence in North America.

You will join a global team based across the UK and Germany, acting as the key interface between business demand and data delivery in North America. The role works closely with Technology Sourcing (GTS), supporting a fast-paced, customer-focused organization that delivers IT solutions and services at scale.

• Strategic Directors
• Engagement Leads

The environment is:

• Fast-paced and demand-driven
• Multi-vendor and multi-service

• Connect data to business outcomes
  Map business processes and identify where data can improve efficiency, performance and decision-making
• Bring structure to a growing region
  Help establish consistent ways of working across North America while aligning with global standards
• Embed data governance and best practice
  Ensure documentation is clear, consistent and traceable, supporting governance, transparency and effective delivery across the lifecycle
• Manage risk across demand and delivery
  Identify and manage risks across the data demand pipeline, ensuring issues are surfaced early and managed effectively with stakeholders
• Support and influence across teams
  Work closely with Engagement Leads, Strategic Directors and GIS teams to align demand and delivery
• Mentor and develop others
  Support Data Consultants and help raise the overall capability of the function
