- Lead and govern the development of enterprise performance indicators in partnership with accountable executives and business owners, ensuring clear definitions, targets, calculation methodologies, authoritative data sources, tolerances, commentary requirements, ownership, approval pathways and ongoing assurance.

- Ensure performance reporting explains trends, drivers, risks, implications and required action, rather than presenting results without interpretation.

- Maintain an enterprise view of material performance issues, actions and dependencies, with appropriate follow-through and governance oversight.

- Develop and sequence the PRISM roadmap and work plan, translating the framework into practical, staged activities that balance organisational priorities, dependencies, data maturity, available capability and sustainable delivery.

- Develop and operationalise core PRISM components, including performance domains, measures, reporting products, governance arrangements, reporting calendars, review processes, implementation plans and supporting guidance.

- Partner with Data Platform and Products, Digital Solutions, Strategic Planning and Partnerships, Finance, program areas and data owners to enable reliable and appropriately governed performance information.

- Build organisational capability to apply PRISM and interpret and use performance information through practical guidance, tools, facilitation and coaching.
