Head of Data Governance and Strategy
McDonald’s
is proud to be one of the most recognized brands in the world, with restaurants
in over 100 countries and billions of customers served each year. As the global
leader in the foodservice industry, we have a legacy of innovation and hard
work that continues to drive us. Today, we are growing with velocity and are
focused on modernizing our experiences, not to make a different McDonald’s but
to build a better McDonald’s.
One of
our biggest areas of focus has been technology, which is helping to drive our
growth. We are collecting
ever-increasing volumes of data and believe with the right know-how and
technology, we can use this data to create value for our business. The Data
Analytics Hub was created as a global center of excellence, whose goal is to
power and scale the use of data and data science across the system to drive
significant business outcomes. The Data Analytics Hub aims to do this by
elevating impact from our analytics uses cases, fixing and governing data and
making it accessible, and growing our analytics talent and capabilities.
