About the Role

The Data & AI team is responsible for building B Lab's data platform, delivering on business priorities, and scaling AI adoption across the organization. The team reports directly to the CTDO. The Data & ML Platforms team owns the data platform, ML infrastructure, and the foundational data models the rest of the Data & AI team depends on — the supply‑side capability layer that Business & Data Priorities and AI Enablement build on.

As the Data Governance Lead on the Data & ML Platforms pillar, you own data standards, definitions, and sensitivity classification across B Lab's data platform, and ensure the platform and its analytics comply with relevant laws and documentation requirements. Beyond governance, you play a growing role in building data literacy across the organization — helping teams understand and trust the data available to them, and ensuring definitions and standards are actually adopted, not just documented. You work closely with the Senior Analytics Engineer and Data Engineer to make sure new models and pipelines are built to standard from the start.

• Build Data Literacy: Develop training, documentation, and other enablement so teams across B Lab can confidently interpret and trust the data available to them.

Cross-Pillar Partnership (25%):

• Partner with Platform Peers: Work with the Senior Analytics Engineer and Data Engineer to ensure new models and pipelines are built to standard.
• Support Pillar 2 & 3: Help Network Priorities, Regional Enablement, and AI Enablement apply data standards consistently in their work.

Strategic Innovation & Business Impact (10%):

• Evaluate Governance Tooling: Explore and pilot new tools or approaches for data cataloging, lineage, and standards enforcement.
• Quantify Literacy Impact: Track and articulate how improved data literacy and standards adoption reduce rework and improve decision quality across teams.

About B Lab

B Lab™ is the nonprofit behind Certified B Corporations™, a community of businesses that meet verified social, environmental, and governance standards. Together, our movement is working towards a more inclusive, equitable, and fair economic system.

Our history

B Lab began in 2006 with the idea that a different kind of economy was not only possible — it was necessary. Our founders Andrew Kassoy, Bart Houlahan, and Jay Coen Gilbert believed there was a better way to do business: better for workers, better for communities, and better for the planet. When our movement’s first 81 Founding BCorps signed the Declaration of Interdependence in 2007, they were not just proposing a better way of doing business. They were proposing a different definition altogether.

What we’ve achieved

B Lab became known for certifying B Corporations™, companies that meet verified standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. But we do much more than that. We help mobilize a global community of businesses committed to collective action on society’s most critical challenges. In 2010, B Lab was part of successfully drafting and passing benefit corporation in Maryland, the first U.S. state to do so. This created a legal framework that allows companies to keep their values of care and community, not just shareholder value, at the forefront. Today, benefit corporation legislation is active in 52 jurisdictions around the world.

Our future

In 2024, leaders from across the network agreed to evolve into a more integrated organization that embodies interdependence. This next iteration of our global network will balance global coherence with local agency to achieve our vision of economic systems change. We are now building this future together.
