Partner with Risk, Information Security, Data Engineering,



Architecture and Business teams.
Design executive dashboards, risk reporting and governance metrics.
Support data‑driven decision making through analytics, reporting and risk‑based recommendations.
Requirements 5–8 years of experience in Data Governance, Data Management, Data Quality, Information Governance or related data functions, combined with solid experience in Risk Management, GRC or Controls.
Experience defining or implementing Data Governance frameworks, operating models or standards.
Experience working with metadata, data lineage, data stewardships, data catalog and/or data quality.
Practical experience identifying risks related to data, information or processes and recommending controls or mitigation actions.
Understanding of fundamental risk concepts such as likelihood, impact, controls, inherent risk and residual risk.
Experience collaborating with Data Engineering, Architecture, Risk, Security and Business teams.
Experience working with large-scale enterprise data environments, including exposure to data pipelines, ETL/ELT, data integration or Big Data processing.
Experience translating analytical, governance or risk findings into executive recommendations.
Experience working with international stakeholders.

The candidate is not necessarily expected to develop production pipelines as a core responsibility , but should understand how data pipelines, ETL/ELT, integration and large‑scale data processing work, and should have practical exposure beyond dashboards and visualization.
Ideal Profile We are particularly interested in candidates coming from Data Governance, Data Management, Data Office, Data Quality or Data Analytics teams who have worked closely with Risk, Controls, Compliance, Audit or Information Security, or Risk/GRC professionals with strong practical exposure to Big Data, data pipelines and enterprise data environments.
Experience in risk may come from Data Risk, IT Risk, Operational Risk, Enterprise Risk or Financial Risk. A traditional Cyber GRC background is not required.
The strongest candidates will be able to demonstrate how they have connected Data and Risk in real projects—for example, using enterprise data to identify, analyze, monitor or mitigate risks.
We are not looking for:
Pure Data Scientists
Software Development profiles
Traditional Cyber GRC profiles with limited Data Governance or Data Management experience.
Data Stewardship / Data Governance profiles without meaningful Big Data or Risk Management exposure.
Risk / GRC profiles whose Data experience is primarily limited to Tableau, Power BI, dashboards or visualization.
