• Act as a consultant to client stakeholders, translating business needs into governance and Purview solutions.

• Produce architecture and governance artefacts: solution designs, design decisions, implementation and operating guidelines.
• Support the transition of Purview into day-to-day operation and guide other members of the implementation team.
