Sitting within the Global IT (GIS) organization and reporting to the Global IT Director (CIO), this role partners cross-functionally with IT, business functions, compliance, and local markets to enable a truly data-driven organization.

You will lead the development of JDE Peet’s enterprise data strategy across governance, quality, architecture, literacy, and AI-readiness, while fostering a culture of data accountability, insight, and innovation across the company.

In this role you will:

• Define the target data operating model, including roles, responsibilities, and data capabilities across the enterprise.

• Build, lead, and mentor a high-performing global team of data professionals.

• Continuously evolve JDE Peet’s data capabilities, ensuring readiness for AI and next-generation analytics.

Drive Governance, Quality, and Compliance

• Ensure data is accurate, consistent, and compliant with regulations such as GDPR.

• Strengthen data quality and integrity across structured and unstructured data sources.

• Partner with Legal, Compliance, and IT to embed privacy-by-design principles.

Architect and Scale Data Platforms

• Design and manage a scalable hybrid data architecture integrating structured and unstructured data (e.g. SAP S/4 HANA, Salesforce, OT data).

• Oversee data platform selection and implementation, in alignment with global technology strategy.

• Manage external system integrators to ensure cost-effective, high-quality delivery and support.

• Enable adoption of advanced analytics, AI, GenAI, and Agentic AI technologies.

Foster Data Literacy & Business Adoption

• Act as the internal evangelist for data as a strategic asset, driving awareness and adoption across all functions.

• Implement data literacy programs and promote self-service analytics.

• Measure and communicate the business value of data initiatives - from revenue growth to risk reduction.

• Lead the organization’s readiness to scale AI and monetize data assets.

Build a Data-Driven Culture

• Establish a global network of data stewards and local data owners.

• Create forums for sharing best practices and innovation in data management.

• Promote collaboration and transparent data-driven decision-making across the business.

Qualifications

We are looking for a visionary data leader with a passion for transforming data into business value. You are both a strategist and an operator - capable of driving enterprise-scale change while inspiring teams and stakeholders around a shared vision.

To thrive in this role, you’ll bring:

• Master’s degree in Business, Data Science, Information Systems, or a related field.

• 10+ years of progressive experience in enterprise data management within global organizations.

• Proven experience building data governance, quality, and architecture at scale.

• Strong understanding of business operations and cross-functional value drivers.

• Track record of leading large-scale transformation and fostering a data-driven culture.

• Exceptional communication skills - able to translate complex data concepts for non-technical audiences.

Preferred:

• Experience in CPG, retail, or similar complex environments.

• Familiarity with modern data platforms (e.g. Snowflake, Azure, GCP) and data cataloging tools.

• Experience applying AI, ML, GenAI, and emerging Agentic AI use cases.
