• Strengthen relationships between data producers and consumers, creating clearer ownership and accountability across the data-product lifecycle.
• Help standardise and scale effective data-product practices across Retail Banking Services.
• Provide senior thought leadership across Data, AI and Analytics, helping strengthen data-product capability and mentoring data professionals across the organisation.
