  Chief data officer

  In this role, I am responsible for the formulation, evolution and execution of the PwC Africa internal data strategy, including data governance, data quality, data architecture and the operational management of the Africa Chief Data Office.I seek to continually improve on both the defensive and offensive data capabilities of the firm by maturing the data management function to ensure that internal data is secure, available and trusted, as well as utilizing business intelligence to embed data-driven decision making into how we do business.Underpinning the way we approach data is the ethical use thereof and an appreciation that we are part of a global community with broader social responsibilities and challenges that we all need to work together to help solve.
