A strong background in data governance frameworks, policies, and their practical implementation is essential, as is experience in data privacy, security, and quality best practices. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of managing enterprise initiatives, teams, and engineering solutions, and be adept at aligning technical solutions with business goals. Advanced skills in problem-solving, interpersonal communication, and the ability to lead and resolve complex issues across diverse groups are required.
