About the role

We file this job under Data Operations, by the work the posting describes.

Data operations staff do the day-to-day work of getting data processed correctly: loading and checking files, moving records between systems, fixing errors and following set procedures.

Expect Excel, some SQL, close attention to detail, and knowledge of the particular systems the company runs.

Data governance sets the rules for the data; data operations does the hands-on work of processing it and keeping it moving.
