We are looking for a Head of Data Strategy and Architecture to join us in a key new role at the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH).
At RSH we regulate for a viable, efficient and well governed social housing sector able to deliver quality homes and services for current and future tenants. We do this by setting standards and carrying out robust regulation, taking appropriate action where needed.
When you join us, you’ll be joining an organisation that gives you the opportunity to make a difference to people’s lives.
As the Head of Data Strategy and Architecture, you will work to develop and deliver a business wide data strategy, implementing the required data architecture allowing access to and use of the regulator’s current data, and likely future requirements, to be optimised. You will play a lead role in the design and implementation of the data strategy, taking responsibility for defining, establishing, reviewing and maintaining our data architecture.
Experienced with cloud data management, database, data warehouse and data lake design and implementation, ideally within a Microsoft Azure tenancy, you’ll work to ensure clear ETL pathways and pipeline data ingestion from data sources to enable RSH to maximise the access to and use of our data. This will include working with colleagues responsible for our digital infrastructure, to lead the development of an advanced analytics platform and data solution, delivering the required infrastructure, architecture and tools so that RSH can develop its data maturity and increase analytical and data visualisation capacity and scope. You will also work to embed data management and increase data literacy across RSH, providing access to tools and training to allow RSH to develop its data capabilities and capacity.
As our successful candidate, you should have strong experience of data strategy and data architecture delivery, along with extensive knowledge and experience of improving the quality of data and enabling organisations and systems to interoperate through the establishment of data architecture standards. You will have a proven record of creating and executing strategies for data and data technology and will have experience around database and data warehouse design.
