- Establish Governance and Standards: Build and enforce scalable frameworks for data governance, analytics methodologies, and reporting consistency across the company.

- Stay Ahead of Trends: Keep a pulse on emerging tools, technologies, and best practices in analytics, data science, and business intelligence. Continuously evolve the function to stay competitive and future-ready.
