About the role

As the Senior Analyst and Reporting Specialist within the Manufacturing Centres of Excellence (MCoE) at TAFE NSW, you will lead and execute the end-to-end design, collection, validation, and reporting of data across complex systems to support strategic, operational, and compliance needs. You will be directly responsible for gathering high-quality data, developing advanced reporting solutions, and delivering actionable insights to a diverse range of stakeholders including executive leadership, government bodies, and internal teams.
