What's your title?

My current title is "CRM Administrator." I'm our Tessitura DB, essentially. I have some SQL knowledge, but I'm not writing custom reports or stored procedures. But I do all FY and performance builds; I am responsible for TNEW content; I'm currently the only one building analytics dashboards; I do all training and onboarding; I maintain documentation of our system policies and procedures. My boss has never liked my title and thinks it should be Database Manager. I'm curious -- if your job sounds like mine, what is your title?

  • My role is very similar, except I do write custom reports and stored procedures, and I don't do performance builds (and I'm only responsible for some TNEW content). My current title is Shared Services CRM Director (Shared Services because we are a consortium and I do this work for the consortium orgs too). In previous iterations I've been Director of Data & Analytics, Data Services Manager, and (Shared Services) Database Specialist. I like the use of "Data Services" rather than "Database" because I think it reflects the broad nature of these types of roles a bit better; Database feels purely technical, but Data Services feels like it involves the technical and the reporting, training, and documentation aspects.
