  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • I provide a range of duties for businesses, organisations, or research teams that centre on maintaining, cleaning, and organising data. Analysing and researching data to find potential modifications or enhancements to a current dataset or system may be part of a data manager's usual day. Additionally, I might be in responsible of creating databases and data warehouses from scratch, guaranteeing their effectiveness and correctness, and establishing access protocols to enable linking and sharing of data across other departments or outside partners. I should be able to communicate difficult technical jargon and be able to offer technical support to users who are working with the data as part of my job.
