• Analyse data imports and exports within our primary supporter database to generate insights that drive prioritisation, reduce complexity, and establish baseline metrics for data quality and supplier performance.
• Provide leadership for training new users, conducting user acceptance testing (UAT), and troubleshooting technical issues related to product enhancements and upgrades.
• Ensure timely execution of income-critical operations, such as Direct Debit processing, Gift Aid claims, and daily data flows.
• Strategically plan, delegate, and manage tasks for the Data Support Engineers to nurture skills, enable succession planning, and foster individual development.
• Monitor and evaluate the performance of systems, processes, and third-party suppliers to ensure operational excellence and adherence to quality standards.

Essential skills, knowledge and experience:

• Proficiency in data management principles, batch data processing, scheduling, testing, and quality assurance techniques.
• Strong knowledge of data-related legislation, including data protection, HMRC Gift Aid regulations, Direct Debit, and PCI compliance, ideally within a not-for-profit context.
• Proven track record of leading a data processing team and managing intricate job processes involving multiple sources and clients.
• Strong leadership and people management skills, capable of fostering a high-performing team and maintaining a positive workplace culture.
• Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM, including working knowledge of its framework and platform.
• Relevant Microsoft certifications (or a willingness to achieve them) to support the role.
• Understanding of how CRM systems integrate within wider organisational infrastructures.

Desirable skills, knowledge and experience:

• Experience with Advanced Business Solutions CareNG CRM.
• Knowledge of relational database tools (eg, Microsoft SQL Server) and job management or scheduling software.
• Experience monitoring and improving supplier performance.
• Practical experience with Dynamics 365 CRM development, Power Apps, and Power Platform.
• Hands-on experience in Legacy CRM migrations to Dynamics 365.
