We are currently undertaking a five-year programme to transition from legacy systems to modern, cloud-based technologies.</p><p>Our Microsoft-based technology stack (including Azure and Purview) underpins this transformation, and we are building a forward-thinking data governance capability that delivers value, ensures compliance, and supports innovation.</p><p><strong>The Role</strong></p><p>We are seeking an experienced Data Governance Manager to lead the build-out of our data governance framework.
