• Understand the external reporting needs from the different stakeholders through current report feedback, external reporting offering, and overall reporting trends in CSR, ESG, and SDG that align with RA's mission. Advise on direction of travel for reporting as a result;
• Identify potential biases and reporting risks by periodically connecting with colleagues in the field/ stakeholders involved in the data gathering and provide them with reports that allow them to identify and prevent these risks and biases;
• Establish a standardized and organized way of gathering regional insight and integrate it as data in our internal reports to promote bottom-top strategies; and
• Identify opportunities to integrate data in an efficient, thoughtful way to maximize engagement and ease of use.

Delivery:

• Transform requests into meaningful reports and insights – including self service capabilities for stakeholder groups;
