• Champion improvements that strengthen data management capabilities, deliver business value and support innovation, including AI-enabled solutions. Proven experience in data management, data governance, metadata management or a related discipline, typically gained over 5+ years within a Business Data Office, Centre of Excellence or similar environment, including leading workstreams, initiatives or task management activities.
• Demonstrable knowledge of key data management areas, including metadata, data lineage, data quality, master/reference data and data products.
• Experience developing and delivering cross-functional data initiatives, building alignment across teams and delivering successful outcomes.
• The ability to analyse and interpret data, translating complex concepts into clear insights and recommendations for business teams.
• Experience implementing and monitoring data controls, supporting compliance requirements, responding to data incidents and resolving data integrity issues.
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to work effectively across business, technology and control functions, including senior leadership.
