• Conduct audits of existing BI and reporting setups, assessing data quality, tooling, processes and overall data maturity.
• Collaborate closely with client- and in-house teams to guide them on best practices for data collection, modelling and visualisation.
• Enable and onboard clients on their dashboards and reports, ensuring stakeholders understand, adopt and use them to drive decisions.
• Continuously identify opportunities to improve and automate reporting, streamlining recurring analysis and freeing up time for insight-driven work.
