Euronext Background

Euronext is the leading pan-European market infrastructure, shaping capital markets for future generations. Its mission is to connect European economies to global capital markets, to accelerate innovation and sustainable growth. Euronext is located in 18 countries across Europe, US and Asia, with regulated exchanges in Belgium, France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway and Portugal. The group has expanded organically and externally, with a revenue growing from €458 million in 2014 to €1.5 billion in 2022, with 2,200 employees and 55 nationalities.

Due to the rapid growth in data volumes and complexity, and the organization\'s strategic pivot toward digital and AI capabilities, Euronext has made the decision to transition from a Centralized to a Federated Data Governance Model.

This is a pivotal role for a self-starter with strong tenacity and business acumen - someone who can understand domain-specific needs and priorities, and shape a data governance programme that delivers tangible value.

• Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and corporate policies, proactively identifying and mitigating risks related to data governance.
• Monitor, measure, and enforce data governance practices across the domain, ensuring consistent adoption and adherence to best practices.
• Collaborate with business data owners, data stewards, and key business stakeholders to establish clear roles, responsibilities, and accountability for data management. Serve as the primary liaison between the Business line, IT Teams and various internal and external stakeholders like Product Owners, Business Analysts, Developers.
• Drive metadata management and data catalog initiatives, ensuring accurate documentation of data assets, ownership, and governance workflows.
• Drive data quality programme to identify, assess, remediate and prevent data quality issues that hinder the business in achieving their objectives in a timely and trusted manner. Monitor data quality metrics; identify and address data quality issues in collaboration with stewards and technical teams.
