This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a background in Data Governance, Data Quality, MI Controls or Underwriting Operations who wants to take ownership of a critical function within a growing and evolving insurance business.

- Master Data Management: Take ownership of MDM processes, improving consistency and standardisation across underwriting datasets.
- Data Lineage & Documentation: Develop and maintain business glossaries, data definitions, reporting catalogues, process documentation and data lineage.
- Risk & Exception Management: Identify data inconsistencies, control weaknesses and operational risks, implementing practical improvements and preventative measures.
- Stakeholder Engagement: Partner with Underwriting, Operations, Data and senior stakeholders to embed accountability and strengthen data governance.
- Transformation & Improvement: Support wider business transformation programmes, ensuring effective governance and reporting controls are incorporated into new processes and operating models.
- Team Leadership: Help develop and lead a high-performing quality assurance and controls capability, promoting continuous improvement and operational excellence.
