The role holder is accountable for converting fragmented data into curated, governed and reusable knowledge assets that can be consumed consistently by AI agents and analytics products across the Group, working alongside other Product Managers within the portfolio strategy and technology priorities set by the Director - AI Product Lead. The role holder takes a product-led approach to data, treating datasets, semantic models and knowledge assets as products with defined owners, consumers, quality standards and lifecycles. This requires close partnership with data engineering, architecture, governance and business data owners to ensure the foundation is trusted, compliant and fit for agentic consumption. As data dependencies sit on the critical path for AI product delivery, the role holder is responsible for ensuring knowledge assets are available, accurate and fit for purpose ahead of product need.

Reusable Knowledge Assets and Innovation • Design and deliver curated and documented knowledge assets that multiple AI products and agents can consume without rework. • Define standards for metadata, lineage, versioning and discoverability so assets can be found and trusted. • Drive measurable reuse of knowledge assets across the product portfolio rather than per-use-case data builds. • Maintain awareness of emerging practice in knowledge engineering, retrieval, semantic modelling and data products, and evolve the foundation accordingly. • Run structured experimentation to validate new approaches before committing them to the roadmap. Performance Management and Value Realization • Define, track and manage KPIs covering data coverage, quality, freshness, reuse and downstream product enablement. • Monitor the impact of foundation improvements on AI product performance and adoption. • Identify risks, dependencies and performance gaps, implementing mitigation and improvement actions. • Build and challenge business cases and investment proposals for data foundation initiatives.
