- Establish and apply reporting governance standards covering demand intake, prioritization, report ownership, naming, documentation, KPI definitions, security, privacy, testing, certification, performance, and lifecycle management.
- Assess existing standard reports, dashboards, and approved data products before initiating new development; promote reuse and rationalize duplicate, obsolete, or low-value reporting content.
- Design, develop, and enhance advanced Workday reports, calculated fields, dashboards, Discovery Boards, alerts, and scheduled outputs aligned with business needs and enterprise standards.

- Expand governed self-service reporting through reusable solutions, appropriate access, report scheduling, user guidance, walkthroughs, job aids, and capability-building activities.
- Lead reporting data-quality controls, reconciliations, and root-cause analysis; ensure issues, decisions, ownership, and corrective actions are documented and traceable.
- Lead cross-functional reporting and analytics initiatives and provide technical coaching, design review, and complex problem-solving support to report writers and analysts.
- Evaluate Workday releases and approved AI-enabled or digital capabilities for relevant reporting and analytics use cases while maintaining human judgment, confidentiality, privacy, and internal controls.
