You will create visibility and structure across the automation portfolio by aligning business priorities, managing investments, and ensuring delivery of impactful solutions. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys connecting business needs with technology and enabling faster, data-driven decision making.

Accountabilities

Key Responsibilities

  • Automation roadmap leadership: Build and maintain a practical “now, next, near” roadmap for BI automation, clarifying what will be delivered, when it is expected, and how work is sequenced against business priorities.
  • Project management: Manage the automation portfolio across intake, prioritization, requirements, milestones, dependencies, risks, and stakeholder communication.
  • Priority and investment choices: Partner with Growth Office and IS leaders to evaluate trade-offs, size opportunities, sequence work, and recommend where time, funding, and technical resources should be focused.
  • Growth Office partnership: Work with Growth Office leaders to understand strategic priorities, identify decision-critical metrics, and translate business questions into repeatable data products and automation use cases.
  • IS collaboration: Partner with Information Systems to ensure BI automation solutions are feasible, scalable, governed, secure, and aligned with enterprise data architecture, platforms, and delivery capacity.
  • Visibility and expectation-setting: Provide clear communication to stakeholders on roadmap status, delivery timing, decision points, risks, dependencies, and changes in priority.
  • Process Improvement: Identify fragmented or manual reporting processes and redesign them into automated, standardized workflows. Support the development, enhancement, and adoption of dashboards, scorecards, and self-service reporting tools that support commercial growth, performance management, and executive decision-making.
  • Stakeholder enablement: Train and support business users to adopt BI tools, interpret dashboards, and build confidence in self-service analytics.
  • Insight-to-action orientation: Ensure BI products do more than report data by clearly surfacing trends, performance drivers, risks, and opportunities.
