Vantage is seeking an Global Sustainability Data Lead to own the design, governance, and continuous evolution of the company's Sustainability data ecosystem. This is a role for a sustainability professional who brings deep expertise in environmental metrics, including carbon and water accounting methodologies, and has the technical data skills to translate that expertise into scalable, auditable, and repeatable systems.

• Design and own the Sustainability data ecosystem, including how metrics are defined, sourced, calculated, validated, stored, and reused across all reporting, disclosure, and program management use cases.
• Establish and maintain a single source of truth for Sustainability metrics and calculation methodologies, with particular depth in GHG Protocol Scope 1, 2, and 3 accounting; market-based vs. location-based Scope 2 methodology selection and application; 24/7 carbon-free energy (CFE) accounting; water use effectiveness (WUE) and power usage effectiveness (PUE) metrics; and water accounting frameworks.
• Design structured, repeatable data flows that replace one-off data pulls to build the Sustainability data infrastructure that the organization and critical stakeholders can rely on as reporting obligations scale.
• Set and enforce standards for Sustainability data quality, definitions, documentation, timing, and traceability across all business units and geographies.

• Own sustainability data and reporting platforms endtoend, including workflow configuration, calculation logic, controls, platform governance, and evaluation of new tools as needs evolve.
• Design and maintain automated sustainability data pipelines using SQL and Python within a Microsoftbased enterprise data environment (e.g., Azure data services, enterprise data lake/warehouse, Fabric or equivalent), reducing manual data handling and reconciliation.
• Develop curated sustainability datasets and semantic data models that enable consistent outputs across:
  Power BI dashboards, annual sustainability reporting, regulatory disclosures, and customer and investor data requests.
• Embed data lineage, metadata, audit trails, and explainability directly into sustainability data workflows so reported figures are defensible under third party assurance, internal audit, and executive review.
• Partner closely with IT and enterprise data teams to align sustainability data architecture with core data standards, security controls, and platform roadmaps, ensuring sustainability data is integrated into Vantage's broader data ecosystem.

• Develop and deliver customized Sustainability data packages and reporting solutions for customers and investors, including structured datasets, supporting methodology documentation, and responses to non-standard or contractually required disclosure requests.
• Serve as the Sustainability data point of contact for customer and investor reporting requests, assessing scope, determining the appropriate methodology, and ensuring outputs meet external quality and accuracy standards.

• Lead Sustainability data collection, preparation, validation, and quality assurance for the annual Sustainability Report, ensuring datasets are complete, audit-ready, and consistent with approved methodologies.
• Own the intake, scoping, and fulfillment of Sustainability reporting requests; distinguish between requests that can be addressed with existing data versus those requiring new collection or methodology development.
• Execute sustainability reporting and disclosure requests in partnership with the Sr. Manager, ensuring outputs meet established definitions, methodologies, and quality standards.
• Maintain a comprehensive reporting calendar and curate trusted, reusable datasets that reduce repetitive data work across disclosure cycles.
• Serve as the primary technical contact for third-party assurance providers and internal audit, defending data methodologies, calculation assumptions, and quality controls.

• Act as the Sustainability data authority for sustainability program owners and regional leads, helping define data requirements for new initiatives and ensuring teams have reliable data to manage performance against targets.
