Description

We’re looking for a Data Governance Consultant who can help our clients turn governance into a genuine business enabler. You’ll work across people, process, and technology to design, implement, and sustain data governance programs that drive quality, compliance, and confidence in decision-making. This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy and delivery — comfortable advising executives one moment and working hands-on with data teams the next. Key Responsibilities Design and implement data governance frameworks, policies, and operating models aligned to client goals and industry standards. Define and document data ownership, stewardship, and accountability models across business functions. Conduct maturity assessments and develop practical roadmaps to strengthen governance capability. Support the establishment of data quality management processes, metrics, and monitoring mechanisms. Partner with technical teams to align governance initiatives with data platforms, metadata management, and cataloguing tools (e.g. Alation, Informatica, Collibra). Facilitate workshops and training to drive adoption, engagement, and cultural change around data ownership and literacy. Collaborate with client leadership to embed governance practices that improve decision-making, regulatory compliance, and business performance. 3–7 years’ experience in data governance, data management, or information management consulting. Strong understanding of data governance principles, frameworks (e.g. DAMA-DMBOK), and best practices. Experience developing or implementing data policies, standards, and stewardship models. Familiarity with metadata management, data cataloguing, or data lineage tools (e.g. Alation, Informatica, Collibra, or similar). Exposure to data quality management processes and tooling. Excellent communication and facilitation skills — able to engage stakeholders at all levels and translate governance into practical business value. Comfortable working in multi-disciplinary teams spanning strategy, engineering, and analytics. We’re not just delivering AI and data projects — we’re humanising them. That means we care deeply about the how, not just the what. We value curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to challenge the status quo. We look for people who are driven to build a business, get curious, and offer up their opinions and ideas. You’ll work with a team that’s smart, kind, and ambitious. You’ll have real influence — in your projects, your practice, and our business. And as we grow, so will you. We’re building teams that are technically excellent, commercially focused, and client-first — people who are curious, collaborative, and eager to grow.
