• Monitor user adoption and provide training and support where necessary.
• Assist in the development of data security and restoration policies, procedures, and controls.
• With IT/Information Management, coordinate database software updates and backups.
• With Information Management co-ordinate relationships with third-party vendors to make improvements to our data management system.

• Use dynamic segmentation strategies to personalize outreach based on supporter behaviour, giving history, and preferences.
• Ensure all campaign lists meet business and compliance rules (opt-outs, preferences, exclusions).
• Regularly review and update the Fundraising Business Rules document as a central source of team practice and procedures.
