Team description

The Data team is at the core of the Customer Experience (CX) and Business Transformation division.

 "Knowing our customers" is crucial to achieve leading customer experience across Europe and to maximise the business benefits for all the Toyota brands & products across the consumer lifecycle.

All initiatives within the data team revolve around 3 main pillars:

• Identifying our customers and consolidating their personal data (MDM)
• Managing & consolidating our customers’ MKTG Consent (OneTrust)
• Building Customer 360 View around our customers

From product side, these 3 initiatives are being managed by dedicated product owners, each responsible for the development and roll-out activities of their individual products (Agile Scrum Approach).
