Deliver enablement and training sessions to drive stakeholder adoption and embed governance across the organisation
Support the integration of catalogues with data warehouses, BI platforms, and data quality tooling

What You'll Need:
5+ years in data governance or metadata management roles
2+ years of hands-on experience with Collibra, Ataccama, or similar governance/catalog platforms
Strong understanding of data governance principles, including ownership, lineage, glossary, and policy management
Experience deploying catalogues into large-scale data environments (cloud-based preferred)
Familiarity with data privacy and regulatory frameworks (e.g., GDPR, BCBS 239, etc.)
Confident communicator who can engage senior stakeholders and translate business needs into technical design
Ability to work across multidisciplinary teams--bridging business, data, and technology
