To be successful in this role you will have previous experience and success in engaging with customers of data and making changes to data systems to help achieve their needs. You may also have experience in interpreting regulatory requirements and developing policy and regulatory projects in a relevant or adjacent environment, such as management consultancy, audit, regulation or defence.
You will be able to work successfully in complex, dynamic and fast-paced environments, delivering on time, with a proven track record of working on data related projects. You will be capable of working across disciplines and teams to help identify and resolve potential issues.
