 **Organisational Context**


The Big Data, AI \& Intelligent Automation function drives the use of data, artificial intelligence and automation to create measurable business value. Its operating context includes enterprise productivity, cost optimisation, customer experience, new revenue streams, reusable agent frameworks, AI democratisation and governed delivery. The role therefore extends beyond traditional rules\-based bots and supports the convergence of RPA, APIs, OCR, document understanding, workflow, data platforms and AI\-enabled automation where these capabilities are approved and appropriate.

* Maintain traceability between requirements, Jira work items, source code, test evidence, approvals and production releases.
* Escalate design, data, access, licensing and control risks that could affect delivery or production stability.

 **Collaboration and Capability Building**

* Work alongside business analysts and process engineers to clarify process logic, data, controls, exceptions and acceptance criteria.
