The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of advising clients on options for suitable approaches to Data Governance to underpin client business goals and outcomes. Candidates may be actively consulting in Data Governance or be looking to take their next steps from the implementation of Data Management solutions.


And a demonstrated track record of:

  1. Have at least 5+ years’ of experience in data consulting in a Data Management role or similar, with hands-on experience of Data Governance and Privacy frameworks, such as DAMA.
  2. Have a strong understanding of regulatory requirements for Data Governance e.g. GDPR, DPA, PECR, etc.

As a consultant, you will also be experienced in dealing with the ‘people’ factor, and the wide variety of national and corporate cultures that we meet in our daily business. You will need to adapt and draw on a breadth of communication and analytical skills to appeal to your audience, be they businesspeople looking for business value, or technical experts looking for technical discipline and rigor. You will be able to employ your analytical mindset to get to the root of the client’s Data challenges and offer practical solutions as well as opportunities to expand the client brief.


We offer you:


The opportunity to work in a diverse and international environment with an informal culture, with a flat hierarchy, in which we cooperate across business areas and levels. We care about results, first and foremost. We care about people and how we can constantly challenge each other to become better. Your background is less important to us than your ability to create results, to create change. We prize excellence and ingenuity but know that both have to be grounded in reality. The reality of making our clients ready for the future.


Valcon Group is an equal opportunities employer and positively encourages applications from suitably qualified and eligible candidates regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, religion or belief, marital status, or pregnancy and maternity.
