• Maintain metric definitions, calculation references, and source system documentation.

Metric Intake & Change Support

  • definition updates
  • threshold / limit changes
  • dashboard enhancements
• Track requests and ensure changes are reviewed/approved by the metric governance group, ORM challenge

Operational Support & Stakeholder Coordination

• Serve as a reliable point of contact for stakeholders seeking metric clarification or reporting support.

• Assist in audit support requests by gathering metric artifacts and evidence of metric controls.

• Strong organization and follow-through
• Structured thinker, process-oriented
• Data quality mindset and precision
• Professional communication and “clean” documentation
