Responsibilities

Portfolio Planning

Demand, Prioritisation & Investment
- Establish and govern a consistent approach to assessing Data & Analytics demand based on strategic fit, business value, feasibility, risk, readiness and capacity.
- Maintain the prioritised demand pipeline and recommend sequencing, consolidation, deferral or rejection based on evidence, dependencies and available funding and resources.
- Lead consolidated portfolio budgeting and forecasting; maintain visibility of approved funding, expenditure, commitments and forecast costs to completion.
- Challenge business cases and investment assumptions, recommending funding allocation or reallocation aligned with strategic priorities, affordability and expected value.

Resource & Portfolio Performance
- Maintain an integrated view of delivery, financial position, resource demand, risks, dependencies and outcomes across the portfolio.
- Align resource requirements with available capacity, identifying critical skills gaps, bottlenecks, over-allocation and competing commitments.
- Lead portfolio performance reviews, challenge material exceptions and secure accountable recovery actions and escalations.
- Assess the portfolio impact of significant changes to scope, cost, timing or resources and recommend appropriate trade-offs or interventions.

Delivery & Value Assurance

Business Value & Benefits
- Establish consistent requirements for benefit ownership, KPIs, baselines, targets, data sources and reporting frequency before investment approval.
- Track and challenge business outcomes and realised benefits, distinguishing delivery outputs from measurable value and forecast benefits from validated results.
- Conduct post-implementation value reviews and recommend whether initiatives should scale, improve, redirect or stop, using findings to inform future prioritisation and investment.

Executive Governance & Decision Support
- Provide concise dashboards and decision papers that explain portfolio performance, material trade-offs and recommended actions.
- Maintain transparent records of portfolio decisions, conditions, accountable owners and agreed actions, and drive follow-through to resolution.
