Description
The Global Data Governance Leader is a critical driver of trusted, well-governed data across GRS and the enterprise. This role is responsible for leading a team of direct reports while also providing matrix leadership across local, federated data governance personnel. The role is accountable for translating data strategy and policy into practical, scalable governance mechanisms that enable business delivery, trusted analytics, and regulatory compliance.
Operating at the intersection of business domains, data platforms, and risk functions, the Data Governance Leader ensures that data ownership, quality expectations, definitions, and controls are clear, actionable, and embedded into delivery and operations. You will lead through both direct organizational accountability and matrixed influence, setting direction for your team while aligning and coordinating governance execution across federated local resources and domain teams.
A defining aspect of this role is deep partnership with Data Architecture, Technology, and Business Data Owners. The Data Governance Leader ensures governance requirements are understood and addressed early and consistently, proactively surfacing risks and tradeoffs, while providing leadership with transparent, decision-ready visibility into governance health and maturity.
This role is ideal for an experienced data governance leader who can influence senior stakeholders, lead through complexity, and balance rigor with delivery momentum without relying on positional authority. A full end-to-end understanding of, and prior experience deploying, data governance programs at scale is paramount to success in this role.
