The opportunity to join our team

We’re looking for a Senior Manager, Data Governance Operations to lead a focused team and build our governance framework from the ground up. This is your chance to own the strategy, manage day-to-day operations, and embed a data governance culture that delivers real business value.

You’ll collaborate directly with senior executives, influencing key decisions while staying hands-on with the day-to-day challenges. This role offers the opportunity to lead with impact, shape the operation of data governance, and define strategies through your expertise in managing data risk.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead, mentor, and inspire a team of data governance specialists to deliver exceptional outcomes

• Drive a culture of data quality, integrity, and accessibility across all systems and processes
• Facilitate governance forums such as the Data Governance Working Group and Data Governance Council, building senior-level engagement and buy-in
• Partner with executives, GMs, and Heads of Function to embed governance into business decision-making
• Leverage multiple governance tools to deliver solutions that work in practice, not just on paper

You’ll stand out if you have:

• Strong background in data management, governance, risk, compliance, or privacy
• Proven leadership in building and running data governance operations end-to-end
• Sharp stakeholder engagement and influencing skills, from operational teams to Board level
• Consulting or advisory experience highly regarded
• Ability to design strategies, roll them out, and see them through to measurable results
• Experience with data governance tools such as Collibra and Informatica
