But technology alone does not transform a business.

You’ll scale this globally by enabling data CDLs and Org Design leads to apply the model consistently, while stepping in directly for critical client moments and complex transformations.

This is an early-stage opportunity to shape how a major industry approaches data transformation. You’ll define this practice from the ground up – and change how major utilities operate in the process.

What you’ll own:

• Define the company’s global point of view on great data operating models— covering organisational patterns, decision-making, ways of working.

• Create scalable transformation playbooks, workshops and client approaches that help organisations adopt modern data practices.

• Enable delivery teams to lead stronger client transformations through practical frameworks, coaching and senior escalation support.

• Develop reusable data value use cases and transformation patterns that accelerate adoption and create compelling business proof points.

• Lead critical and complex client conversations, particularly where organisational change or data transformation risk is involved.
