  • Support regulatory, risk, and compliance alignment (e.g., privacy, financial reporting, data controls)
  • Enable trusted analytics through well-governed data, standardized processes, and aligned governance structures
  • Advise on the strategic adoption and governance of modern data platforms (e.g., Databricks, Snowflake, Collibra)
  • Define and support data product strategies and domain-based ownership models
  • Plan and execute advisory engagements, including strategy development, governance design, business process analysis, and future-state definition
  • Develop governance and strategy artifacts such as data glossaries, data quality frameworks, and control models
  • Apply technical and industry expertise to solve complex client challenges
  • Contribute to business development through thought leadership, proposal development, and client presentations

What you bring to the role
  • A completed MBA or Bachelor's degree in Management Information Systems, Computer Science, Business Administration or Data Science
  • 5+ years of experience in data governance, data management or data strategy.

  • Strong experience in data strategy, roadmap development, and operating model design
  • Ability to translate business strategy into data-enabled transformation initiatives
  • Experience designing data quality frameworks and governance operating models
  • A completed industry-recognized certification (CDMP or DCAM)
  • Strong understanding of regulatory and risk considerations (especially in financial services or insurance)
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to engage business and technical stakeholders
  • Experience with data governance tools (e.g., Collibra, Informatica, Atlan, Attacama) considered an asset
