Role Title: Data Front End & Enablement - Operational Analyst

The Front End and Enablement Function represents the entry point to the Data Portfolio and the first stage of the Demand lifecycle for all of our client's business needs. It is the area that sees every item of new work (Demand) and every Discovery and Walkthrough notification. It is a fast-paced and high-volume Service Level-driven (SLA) function acting as a critical link between internal Data Portfolio delivery teams, a central Demand team and the client.

The role entails working to support incoming Demand, a real focus of which is the triage and evaluation of items for complexity, new technology and where to focus specific attention. As the Demand lifecycle continues, the focus then moves to the correct logging and treatment of the request in accordance with contractual rules, the co-ordination of response issuing and ultimately the commissioning of items via a successful sale to the client. All of this is underpinned by ensuring or providing accurate tracking and governance, while also building trusted relationships with stakeholders.

The role goes beyond co-ordination: you will be an advocate for automation, improve processes, and act independently when required-helping to scale and strengthen the function as demand complexity grows.
