Most Critical Competencies:

Research Methods/ Data Analysis - Research methods are specific procedures for collecting and analyzing data. Data analysis involves cleaning, validation, transformation, and manipulation of raw data to produce actionable insights.

Technology (Enterprise systems, data platforms, integration tools, and data visualization software) - Specialized knowledge and expertise in operating and administering modern data systems and software tools to complete tasks and enhance organizational efficiency. Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint is a must. Experience with Salesforce administration (including report/dashboard design and architecture), Tableau, Power BI, Form Assembly, R, SQL, and/or ArcGIS is highly desirable. The ideal candidate will also demonstrate familiarity with scalable system design, data automation, and integration between platforms to support streamlined workflows and reporting.

Demonstrates results-oriented discipline - Those working in backbone roles are continually called upon to suspend processes they know have been used, those procedures are well-known and practiced, the reasons for improvising are well understood, the big-picture outcomes are kept clearly in focus, and disciplines around task management and action tracking are maintained.

Is a perceptive, strategic systems thinker - Success in the role requires backbone facilitators to consider all the systemic variables that have the potential to accelerate or impede the work of the partnership. They must be attuned to both obvious and non-obvious factors, especially those subtle influences that have the power to derail the work of the group if not monitored and managed intentionally and strategically.

Generates new insights by leveraging knowledge, observation, intellectual agility and data - To be effective, those in backbone roles must be able to quickly process new observations and information and integrate them with a large repository of known information about the context (e.g., people, systems, politics, policies, past efforts) to develop insights, identify opportunities, avoid traps, and reframe issues in ways that keep the partnership moving forward. In a similar way, they must understand and leverage data in ways that unlock new insights.

Data visualization - An interdisciplinary field that deals with the graphic representation of data. It is a particularly efficient way of communicating when the data is numerous, for example a data dashboard.

Data integration - Combining data residing in different sources and providing users with a unified view of them. A common use of data integration is in data mining (e.g., analyzing and extracting information from existing databases that can be useful for Business decisions).

Equity Focus in Data - Identify, understand, and address potential biases and inequities within data sets and analysis. A successful candidate will be able to ensure that data collection, analysis, and reporting practices are conducted in a way that promotes fairness and avoids perpetuating historical or existing biases.
