Role Overview
The Data Governance Manager is responsible for supporting the design, implementation, adoption, and operationalisation of Data Governance capabilities that enable trusted master data across Fusion. Working closely with the Data Governance Head, business stakeholders, data owners, data stewards, and project teams, the role will establish minimum viable governance processes, support a light touch Fusion data governance operating model adoption, and ensure data governance activities are embedded into day-to-day business operations.
The role acts as a key liaison between business and technology teams, helping to define data governance practices, coordinate stakeholders, facilitate governance activities, and support the transition of governance capabilities into BAU operations.
Beyond process delivery, the role is a genuine change agent for the organisation – a people-focused, collaborative presence who champions a culture of stewardship and ownership, and who is comfortable bringing others along on the journey rather than simply enforcing a process.
