• Act as an operational interface with Product, Technology, Production, Scripting, and associated teams to clarify requirements, investigate issues, coordinate resolution, and follow up on agreed actions. 
• Support and oversee the processes and systems underpinning survey operations, including sample and list preparation, survey distribution, invitations, reminders, and execution monitoring, while the designated function retains day-to-day survey execution ownership. 
• Coordinate operational administration and data-maintenance processes in panel management platforms, including data clean-up and refresh, and help ensure that panel information and operational records remain accurate and usable. 
• Provide structured operational support for requests involving panel processes, systems, and data collection; assess issues, prioritise actions, and escalate risks or dependencies when needed.
