About the role:

Embed practical governance and stewardship for enterprise DA&I so data is owned, understood, trusted and used consistently. The role converts enterprise policies into clear accountabilities, controls and adoption mechanisms; it does not own source-system operations or make business data decisions on behalf of domain owners.

• 5+ years of relevant experience in data governance, ownership and stewardship, quality, metadata, lineage, cataloguing and policy implementation, including accountability in a complex global or multi-market organisation.

• Demonstrated delivery of measurable outcomes in a scope comparable to Report Governance Lead, with clear ownership of decisions, priorities and stakeholder alignment.

• Proven ability to work across business, product and technology teams in a matrixed or federated operating model.

• Strong written and verbal communication, with the judgement to influence senior stakeholders and escalate material risks clearly.

• Practical understanding of data governance, security, privacy, responsible use and financial discipline relevant to the role.

• Experience in consumer goods, retail or another complex multi-market enterprise.

• Experience with modern cloud data, analytics or AI platforms and product-led delivery methods.

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience in a relevant business, data, technology, engineering or design discipline.
