• Data Stewardship & Ownership: Partner with business and system owners to define data responsibilities, enforce governance processes, and promote accountability.
• Policy Development: Define and document standards for data creation, enrichment, integration, and usage to ensure consistency across business functions.
• SaaS Metrics Alignment: Ensure governance frameworks support accurate and reliable reporting of key SaaS metrics such as ARR, renewals, churn, pipeline, and bookings.
• Change Enablement: Embed governance practices into system changes, integrations, and data initiatives in partnership with the Internal Systems and Compliance teams.
• Reporting & Communication: Provide transparency through reporting on data quality metrics, ownership status, and governance maturity.

Essential Criteria 

• Experience: 3+ years of experience in data governance, data management, or information quality.
• SaaS Knowledge: Proven experience working within a SaaS environment, with a strong grasp of business metrics such as ARR, churn, retention, and pipeline.
• Governance Frameworks: Demonstrated ability to establish or improve data governance frameworks and operational processes.
• Systems Understanding: Familiarity with Salesforce, ERP (e.g., Sage Intacct), and marketing automation data structures.
• Analytical Skills: Strong analytical mindset and ability to define, measure, and track data quality KPIs.
• Collaboration: Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, capable of influencing data ownership across business functions.
• Leadership: Experience managing or mentoring team members focused on data quality or governance.

Desirable Criteria
