The successful candidate will be responsible for establishing and scaling a fit-for-purpose data governance function from the ground up, ensuring alignment with strategic goals and regulatory obligations.

Key Responsibilities:

  3. Develop and embed policies, standards, and data controls for quality, classification, access, and lifecycle management.
  4. Collaborate with teams across IT, risk, finance, and business units to promote data accountability and literacy.

  6. Define and track governance KPIs and maturity levels, reporting regularly to senior leadership.
  7. Act as the key governance lead on initiatives relating to privacy, compliance, AI readiness, and data quality.
Requirements:
  • Proven experience in data governance, data management, or data quality leadership roles.
  • Strong understanding of governance frameworks such as DAMA-DMBOK or CDMC.
  • Hands-on experience developing data policies, ownership models, and controls in a regulated environment.
  • Financial services experience highly regarded, especially in ASX-listed or APRA-regulated organisations.
  • Familiarity with tools such as Snowflake, Microsoft Purview, Collibra, or similar platforms is highly regarded.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence at all levels.
  • A strategic mindset, balanced with the ability to deliver quick wins and scale iteratively.
What We Offer:

This is a rare opportunity to define the data governance strategy, influence data culture across the organisation, and shape how data is managed, protected, and leveraged for business value. The successful candidate will have the chance to make a significant impact and contribute to the growth and success of our organisation.
