• Define the ESG and risk data model, taxonomies, metric definitions, calculation logic, and quality expectations used across Procurement.
• Design analytics and reporting products that support sustainability, supplier risk, supplier performance, category, and procurement performance questions.
• Provide reporting infrastructure and data services that support CSRD, CSDDD, and other disclosure requirements owned by the relevant service owners.
• Lead advanced analytics, predictive modelling, and AI-enabled use cases for supplier risk signals, emissions trajectories, and supplier segmentation.
• Deliver benchmarking, market, and regulatory intelligence that positions Takeda against peers and emerging requirements.

• Maintain a prioritized demand and product backlog with clear business value, ownership, and delivery sequencing.
• Establish service levels, intake routes, and escalation paths for analytics requests across Procurement.

Data Architecture, Standards & Quality

• Define ESG and risk data requirements, master data expectations, taxonomies, metric definitions, and calculation rules.
• Govern integration of internal and external data sources, including supplier assessment, emissions, risk monitoring, and spend data.
• Establish data quality controls, reconciliation routines, lineage, and documentation suitable for audit and assurance.

Reporting & Disclosure Enablement

• Design executive and service-line reporting products, including leadership dashboards and performance packs.
• Provide the reporting infrastructure, datasets, and controls that support regulatory disclosure, rating agency responses, and investor queries.
• Ensure reported figures are traceable, consistent across audiences, and aligned with definitions agreed with the accountable service owners.

Advanced Analytics & AI

• Design and sponsor predictive and scenario-based use cases such as supplier risk early warning, emissions trajectory modelling, and resilience stress testing.
• Evaluate AI and machine-learning approaches for signal detection, unstructured data extraction, and intelligence summarization.
• Define model assumptions, validation approaches, limitations, and responsible-use expectations before scaling.

Intelligence & Benchmarking

• Deliver peer benchmarking, market intelligence, and regulatory watch insight relevant to sustainability and supplier risk.
• Translate complex analysis into concise recommendations for senior decision makers.
• Identify emerging data and intelligence needs arising from regulation, business strategy, or supplier-market change.
