The Data Goddess

Unlocking the Potential of Data and Technology

Martha Horler

At The Data Goddess, I help higher education providers—especially small and specialist ones—make sense of their data and systems. Whether you’re exploring SharePoint, Power BI, or custom databases, I turn technical tools into practical solutions that actually work for your team.

With two decades of sector experience, I understand the realities of managing data in complex, resource-stretched environments. That’s why I offer consultancy that’s clear, flexible, and tailored to your needs—no jargon, no assumptions.

From developing dashboards to designing intranets, I focus on making new technologies accessible and empowering. My work goes beyond implementation—I help you build the skills and confidence to use your systems effectively, long after our project ends.

I also support individuals through mentoring, training, and career development, because great data work starts with empowered people. Whether you’re navigating data protection, preparing for returns, or simply need a sounding board—I’m here to help.

You don’t need to know everything about tech. You just need the right support to move forward. At The Data Goddess, I offer that support—practical, honest, and built around you.

At The Data Goddess, it’s not just about tech. It’s about making your systems smarter, your processes smoother, and your team more confident. Let’s take the stress out of data, and turn your challenges into opportunities for growth.
