About the role

- Be the primary point of contact and trusted advisor to executive and senior stakeholders—clarifying objectives, shaping KPIs/success metrics, and ensuring outcomes map to client value and ROI.
- Translate business needs into actionable technical direction: work with architects, engineers, analysts, and change leaders to define solution scope, requirements, and a product‑based approach to data investments (platform, products, applications, services).
- Lead planning and execution using agile practices: coordinate cross-functional teams, timelines, and dependencies; manage risk, scope, and trade‑offs across multiple concurrent initiatives.
- Establish and operationalize KPIs for business, customer, product, and teams—track performance, communicate status, and drive course corrections with data.
- Ensure quality, adoption, and continuous improvement of solutions through testing, validation, stakeholder feedback, and iteration; connect solution changes to organizational change management needs.
- Support business development by shaping solution narratives, contributing to proposals, and participating in client pitches to showcase phData’s capabilities and approach.
- Stay current on industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in data, analytics, and AI; share insights to elevate client strategies and internal practice maturity.

- Demonstrated strength in client relationship management:

- Translating complex business needs into practical technical solutions.
- Communicating complex concepts clearly to both technical and business audiences.
- Strong grasp of agile and product development life cycles, including backlog management, iterative delivery, and KPI‑driven decision making.
- Experience working within change-heavy transformations (digital, data, analytics, AI), with an understanding of change management principles and how to drive adoption of new platforms and products.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision‑making skills; able to manage multiple initiatives at once and stay oriented to the “big picture” under pressure.
- Excellent leadership, communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills, including crafting and delivering compelling solution and strategy narratives.
