- Advise clients on Power BI governance and operating models, including workspace strategy, security, access management, deployment practices, platform administration, adoption, and performance.
- Review and improve existing reports, semantic models, platform configurations, and deployment practices to identify opportunities for optimization, standardization, and scale.
- Manage client expectations through clear communication, status reporting, feedback loops, risk management, transparent escalation, and alignment on decisions and dependencies.
- Provide technical leadership and mentorship to consultants and delivery teams; establish a high bar for quality, usability, maintainability, and client value.
- Contribute to staffing plans, utilization planning, delivery planning, workstream budgets, estimates, and overall project performance.
- Partner with account and practice leaders on discovery, proposals, solution shaping, estimates, and expansion opportunities that deepen client value and support Analytics practice growth.
- Develop reusable Power BI accelerators, frameworks, templates, enablement materials, and points of view that improve delivery consistency and market impact.
- Support backlog development and ongoing enhancement of analytics solutions after initial implementation.
