Contribute to transformation and operating model engagements so that design decisions are evidenced by data. Contribute to high-quality deliverables, proposals and thought leadership, and share knowledge across the team. Opportunity Identification and Solution Shaping Identify where data can create value for a client, and translate that into a clear, practical solution and business case. Shape analytics solutions such as anomaly detection, risk and control monitoring, self-service analytics and automated reporting.
