Data Governance Manager – Banking – Contract - London – Hybrid
A Data Governance Specialist is required by a UK Challenger Bank on a contract basis to champion better data practices across the business and help turn their data into a genuine competitive advantage.
Data is one of the most valuable assets a bank holds — and we're looking for someone who can help them treat it that way.
What you'll be doing
- Championing data governance across the organisation and helping the business get more strategic value from its data
- Embedding strong data practices at every point in the data lifecycle
- Building and leading a network of data owners/stewards across departments, bringing data policies to life day-to-day
- Coaching business teams to raise their data maturity and confidence
- Owning the rollout of the data catalogue — making sure it's well-designed, well-maintained, and genuinely useful
- Driving up data quality by working with teams to spot and fix issues at the source
- Shaping the broader data & analytics strategy through smart, practical governance input
- Exploring new technology — including AI — to strengthen how data is managed and monitored
- Running training and awareness activities to lift data literacy across the bank
- Translating regulatory reporting changes into clear data requirements, and pushing for greater automation
