Senior Data Governance Lead - Setting up Data Governance Framework
A leading global fund manager is building out its data architecture function - and this is a pivotal hire.
The business has moved from fragmented, business-line technology setups to a platform-first approach. The data architecture team sits above the platform, and this role sits at the heart of it defining all data governance standards from scratch and implementing them.
The Role
You will be the standard-setter. Working closely with senior business stakeholders, your focus is on creating the templates, frameworks and requirements that govern how data products are built and delivered consistently across the organisation.
- Defining what good looks like
- Standardising data delivery across business lines
- Embedding compliance and governance into the process from the start
- Ensuring every data product lands the same way, every time
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

This is not a data platform role. It is not a data engineering role. It is architecture - the thinking, the standards and the structures that everything else is built on.
About You
You are a senior data architect with a strong governance instinct. You may have come up through data governance, data management or enterprise architecture. What matters is that you understand how to bring consistency to complex, federated data environments and can hold that line with senior stakeholders.
You will bring:
- Deep experience defining data architecture standards, patterns and templates at enterprise scale
- A strong grasp of data governance, compliance and data product delivery
- The credibility to engage and influence at business and leadership level
- A practical mindset. You build things that get adopted, not frameworks that gather dust
