Honesty is one of the key values I admire and many others. When interviewing or delivering projects. If you don't know something I would rather hear that, then have someone try and fumble an answer together. Being open and honest demonstrates a level of integrity!

What do you like about your job and the company?
Our current data estate contains multiple sources of the same data, often in a state that does not provide much value at times. I am working across multiple transformation programs which will completely change how we categorise our data and surface this to our end users so that they can maximise value from our data. Our aim is to build a series of trusted data products which in turn improves our management of data governance within BA.
Greatest achievements
When I joined British Airways, our department was only beginning it's journey into the adoption of agile practices. I implemented a series of agile methodologies within my team to improve our planning, prioritisation and overall delivery of key initiatives. These changes gave more over-sight to my stakeholders on how we are operating giving them further confidence in our ability to deliver.

British Airways is a great employer to work for. The range and variety of roles available is huge and the options to get involved in many of them is available. Everybody has the same goal to ensure that our customers have a great experience and whether you are part of the front facing Cabin Crew or Check In Agents, or Engineers ensuring the aircraft is safe and reliable or Ramp and Turn Round Agents making sure flights depart on time, it is all part of what makes it run so smoothly. Even back office roles, such as Payroll, play an important part of this whole process.

Given the size of British Airways as an organisation, I learn something new each day and I think it's important to succeed at British Airways to relish learning new things and taking hold of opportunities. You need to be comfortable that you will never know absolutely everything, but be reassured that you have resources and colleagues who will guide you!
