About The Role

As a Senior Data Governance Leader, you will drive the operational transformation of our global governance function, turning multi-industry legacy data into a unified, production-ready foundation. You will partner with Data Operations, ML teams, and international hubs to establish core quality baselines and architect scalable taxonomy and MDM structures. This is a high-impact, execution-focused role for a builder who excels at translating governance policy into testable, working artifacts—ensuring our standards remain consistent, conflict-free, and actively enforced at scale.

Requirements

Responsibilities

• Author, maintain, and version enterprise taxonomies, business term definitions, and master data hierarchies to consolidate legacy structures across four distinct organizations and two industries into a single unified taxonomy
• Translate governance strategies into structured, testable data quality rules—assigning consistent rule IDs across taxonomies to ensure governance actively runs in production systems.
• Run routine rule-library analysis to detect duplicates, conflicts, and coverage gaps, and prepare findings for governance review
• Maintain metadata, documentation, and change history so definitions and rules remain traceable and auditable
• Support intake and triage of new rule and definition requests from Data Operations and business stakeholders
• Prepare reference data and golden-record candidates for governance certification, flagging anomalies and exceptions
• Produce clear documentation and quick-reference guides that help stewards and analysts apply standards independently
• Assist in preparing governance reporting, dashboards, and stakeholder updates

Success Measures

Success in this role will be measured by:

• Rule & Taxonomy Integrity - Low and declining rates of duplicate, conflicting, or orphaned rules and definitions
• Coverage - Measurable progress against taxonomy and reference data coverage targets across tiers
• Turnaround - Timely, accurate processing of rule and definition requests within agreed SLAs
• Traceability - Complete, auditable change history and documentation for governed artifacts
• Usability - Stewards and analysts can apply standards from documentation without repeated escalation
• Operationalization - Authored rules and definitions are actively used in classification and quality workflows

Key Qualifications And Role Requirements

• 5+ years of hands‑on experience in Data Governance, Master Data Management (MDM), Data Quality, or Data Architecture
• Proven experience building and operationalizing data governance foundations, taxonomies, and MDM frameworks from the ground up (not just maintaining existing frameworks)
• Hands‑on experience maintaining taxonomies, controlled vocabularies, business glossaries, or rule libraries
• Strong attention to detail and comfort working with structured data, spreadsheets, and governance tooling
• Ability to translate governance decisions into precise, consistent, testable rules
• Comfort with ambiguity and evolving standards in a maturing governance environment
• Familiarity with data quality dimensions (accuracy, completeness, consistency, timeliness)
• Exposure to DAMA / DMBOK concepts a plus
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
