De scription de poste :

The Associate Director, Data Governance is responsible for driving the development, implementation, and oversight of the organization’s data governance strategy, framework, and operating model. The role ensures data is managed as a strategic asset—secure, high-quality, well-defined, and compliant with regulatory requirements (including PDPO and OSFI Guideline E-21 expectations as operationalized locally). The role provides leadership to establish clear data ownership and stewardship, strengthen data quality management, oversee metadata and lineage practices, and embed governance processes across business functions through an effective Data Governance Council and working forums.

Key Responsibilities

A) Governance Strategy, Framework & Policy

• Develop and maintain the market data governance framework and operating model, aligned to enterprise direction and applicable policies/standards.
• Define and socialize governance policies and standards spanning (as applicable): data definitions, data quality, metadata/lineage, access & entitlements, and lifecycle management.

B) Regulatory Alignment (E-21) & Privacy (PDPO)

• Lead governance activities that support OSFI E-21 Data Risk Management evidence expectations (people/process/technology/data artifacts) in partnership with Risk/Compliance and IT.
• Work with Compliance to ensure governance practices align with PDPO and internal governance standards; embed privacy-by-design into governance routines and decisions.

C) Data Ownership, Stewardship & Decision Rights

• Identify Data Owners and drive buy-in on responsibilities; support Data Owners in appointing Data Stewards and Custodians for domains/critical processes.
• Establish clear decision rights: what is decided at domain forums vs. escalated to the Data Governance Council; ensure single point of accountability for critical elements.

D) Council Leadership & Operating Rhythm

• Run the council cadence (quarterly council; monthly stewards/working committee; ad-hoc escalations) including agenda design, pre-reads, facilitation, and decision capture.
• Maintain the governance action log, decision log, issue register, and ensure follow-through to closure; communicate outcomes to executive stakeholders.

E) Critical Data Elements (CDE), Definition, Metadata & Lineage Management

• Define business glossary and CDE criteria with Data Owners/Stewards; ensure CDE register is complete with ownership, definitions, and business process linkage.
• Drive metadata and lineage expectations (what must be documented, reviewed, and kept current through change).

F) Data Quality (DQ) Governance, Metrics & Remediation

• Define DQ standards, KPI/threshold approach, review cadence, and escalation triggers with stakeholders; ensure DQ issues are prioritized and remediated.
Produce management-grade reporting (what is governed, what is improving, what is at risk, what decisions/support are needed).

Qualifications & Experience

• 8–12+ years in Data Management and Governance.
• Proven experience implementing governance frameworks and operating models
• Experience with data quality, metadata, lineage, regulatory compliance, data
• Experience in insurance or financial services is strongly preferred
• Professional Certificate in Data Governance / AI Governance is preferred.

• Comfortable operating at the intersection of business, analytics, and technology
