• Drive calculation/documentation revisions in partnership with SMEs, ensuring understanding of historical logic and formal sign-off of calculated values.
• Lead root-cause analysis for metric discrepancies identified by SMEs/auditors; recommend solutions and coordinate resolution across preparers/approvers/technical teams.

• Perform post-publication reconciliations between ESG Hub stored values and published values, ensuring every discrepancy is resolved to protect reliability and audit validity.
• Track issues to closure and ensure proper documentation of resolution outcomes.
• Manage access and governance administration across tooling, including maintaining relevant lists and approving access requests through established channels.
• Maintain key governance artifacts such as metric ownership, dataset metadata ownership, and operational permission lists.
• Oversee dashboard health and maintenance; report issues, track status, and support corrective actions as needed.
• Help design technical details of new reports (as requested) and support integration of new reporting outputs into the established ecosystem

Required Qualifications
