Ready to shape how a leading global technology brand uses data to power intelligent, AI-led marketing? We’re looking for a Data Governance Managerto join a world-class team and help redefine what “best-in-class” data governance looks like in modern digital marketing.

This is a rare opportunity to sit at the intersection of campaign data, AI innovation, and marketing performance. You’ll lead the way in evolving governance frameworks using cutting-edge tools. If you’re excited by automation, curious about AI, and passionate about turning complex data into trusted business value — you’ll thrive here.

Your mission: supporting our client in managing, operating, and scaling campaign data across paid and owned media. You will:

• Build, document, and evolve a robust data governance framework that improves data consistency, integrity, and usability across markets and channels.

• Create and maintain clear data mapping and business rules that align to KPI and measurement requirements across multiple sources.

• Audit data sources, calculations, and processes to identify quality issues and drive effective root-cause analysis and resolution.

• Implement ongoing data quality monitoring, ensuring compliance with global and regional taxonomy, naming conventions, and standards.

• Lead collaborative working sessions across business and technology stakeholders, turning complex requirements into practical solutions.

• Manage stakeholders confidently, translating ambiguous ideas into actionable plans and clearly communicating risks and mitigations.

• Drive consistent taxonomy and naming conventions across the full data lifecycle, improving structure and adoption across platforms.

• Partner with internal teams and clients to strengthen and modernise measurement frameworks and ensure accurate, reliable metric capture.

• Support dashboard and activation teams with clear standards, requirements, and rules to improve usability, satisfaction, and adoption.

• Use automation and AI tools where valuable to streamline governance workflows, improve efficiency, and enhance data quality.

• Act as the regional escalation point for data governance needs, providing hands‑on support and rapid resolution when priorities shift or issues arise.

We’d love to meet someone who’s equally comfortable with detail and big-picture thinking, and who enjoys building smarter ways of working.

You’ll likely have:

• Proven experience as a data governance leader across media and/or first‑party data environments.

• Strong critical thinking and a practical, solutions‑first mindset.

• Confidence juggling priorities, leading multiple workstreams, and staying organized under pressure.

• Excellent process and project management skills, including training/knowledge‑transfer experience.

• Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, formulas, macros).

• Experience with project tools such as Jira, Smartsheets, or structured project plans.

• Familiarity with data visualization, automation, and workflow tooling.

• Understanding of digital media tech (DSPs, ad servers, martech measurement setups).

• A meticulous, independent working style — you spot issues before others do.

• Strong relationship‑building skills and a collaborative, client‑centric approach.

• Exceptional written and verbal communication — clear, confident, and professional.

• Sound judgment, comfort making decisions, and the ability to escalate wisely when needed.
