Key Responsibilities

Enterprise Data & Reporting Strategy

• Define and execute a multi-year enterprise data and reporting strategy aligned to corporate and retail operating priorities (store ops, merchandising, supply chain, finance, digital/eComm).
• Establish a single source of truth for KPIs and retail performance management (enterprise metric definitions, hierarchies, dimensional models, semantic layers).

Integrations & Data Movement (Oracle Katalist and broader ecosystem)

• Own integration strategy and execution to connect retail applications, legacy systems, and cloud platforms—ensuring scalable, supportable interfaces and high-quality data synchronization.
• Establish integration standards (API strategy, event vs. batch patterns, SLAs, monitoring/alerting, incident response) and ensure resilience for store-critical and enterprise-critical feeds.
• Partner with application owners and vendors to prioritize integration backlog and deliver at retail speed (testing discipline, cutover planning, rollout across 900 locations).

Data Governance, Quality, Security, and Compliance

• Stand up data governance practices: data ownership, stewardship, data quality rules, lineage, controlled metric definitions, and change control.
• Ensure appropriate security and privacy controls (role-based access, sensitivity labels where used, auditability), especially for customer/loyalty and employee-related data.

Business Partnership & Value Realization

• Serve as a strategic partner to senior business leaders—translating business goals into analytics products and integration capabilities.
• Build a cadence of value measurement (adoption, time-to-insight, KPI improvements, reduced manual effort) and communicate progress through executive-ready dashboards and narratives.
• Lead prioritization across competing demands with a clear “enterprise first” lens.

Vendor / MSP Management and Financial Stewardship

• Manage systems integrators/MSPs delivering data engineering, BI development, and integration services—ensuring quality, velocity, security, and cost control.
• Own budgets and vendor contracts; establish outcome-based SLAs, performance scorecards, and governance routines.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years in enterprise data/analytics and/or integration leadership, with 5+ years managing teams and/or MSP/SI delivery.

• Power BI (semantic modeling, governance, tenant/workspace standards, enterprise rollout)
• Microsoft Fabric (end-to-end analytics workflows across ingestion, transformation, warehousing/lakehouse, and reporting)
• Oracle Retail Insights (retail analytics/BI, data sourcing, retail hierarchies/metrics, operational reporting)
• Strong integration leadership: API-based integrations, ETL/ELT patterns, orchestration, monitoring, and SLAs.
• Proven ability to influence and partner across business and technology (merchandising, store ops, supply chain, finance, digital).
• Experience operating in a multi-site retail environment (hundreds of stores/locations strongly preferred).

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Oracle retail ecosystem components and retail data models (merchandise, inventory, pricing, promotions, loyalty/customer).
• Experience implementing or scaling a data governance program (catalog/lineage, DQ rules, stewardship).
• Familiarity with low-code or orchestration integration platforms (including Katalist capabilities where applicable).
• Background in product management for data/analytics (roadmaps, backlogs, adoption).

Leadership Attributes / Competencies

• Retail-first mindset: understands store operations realities, field adoption, and the need for reliable daily metrics.
• Operating model builder: establishes standards, governance, and enablement that scale across functions and geographies.
• Execution + strategy: can set a vision and deliver tangible value iteratively.
