  • Establish and lead cross-functional working groups to identify and resolve data governance issues.
  • Help stakeholders understand and realise the benefits of governing and managing data effectively, e.g. by delivering training and workshops to promote data governance awareness across the firm.
  • Improve compliance with applicable legislation and regulations (both national and international).
  • Identify any gaps or shortcomings in the firm’s data management technology and embed appropriate solutions where required.
  • Work closely with the broader Information Security & Privacy and Compliance teams to ensure alignment on information security, data privacy and governance.
