- You develop and improve binding policies, standards, roles, and decision-making processes for Data Management and Data Governance.
- You establish data ownership and data stewardship and embed clear responsibilities within the business units.

- You work with enterprise, solution, and data architects, ensuring that governance principles are incorporated into target architectures, data platforms, and transformation initiatives.
- You analyze end-to-end data flows, data models, applications, interfaces, and integration solutions, and assess them in terms of quality, security, scalability, and reusability.
