• Set modelling approach and standards, ensuring robustness, reproducibility and appropriate controls (documentation, testing, governance).
• Own the roadmap and backlog for priority initiatives; translate business goals into clear deliverables and success measures.

• Proven leadership of teams across geographies (e.g., UK, Poland, India) and suppliers/partners.

• Strong stakeholder skills: you listen, challenge constructively, and explain complex modelling concepts in plain language.
• A continuous-improvement mindset with high standards on controls, documentation and testing.
• Familiarity with modern tooling and practices in model engineering (e.g., version control, automated testing, peer review).
