  • Good working knowledge of data governance principles and frameworks (e.g. data policies, metadata, ownership, lineage)
  • Strong communication and stakeholder skills
  • Comfortable working with both business and technical teams
  • A proactive mindset and attention to detail


Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with data governance or cataloguing tools (e.g. Collibra, Alation, Informatica)
  • Knowledge of DAMA, DCAM or similar frameworks
