Quick Summary

We are looking for a Data Governance Consultant to help organizations to organize and manage their data effectively, by structuring, governing and making decisions based on business value, adoption, and decision-making.

Job Description

Data governance is geen papierwerk.
Het is wat bepaalt of organisaties kunnen sturen, opschalen en verantwoorden.

Bij adesso helpen we organisaties datagedreven werken duurzaam te organiseren. Niet door alleen modellen en policies te introduceren, maar door governance te verbinden aan businesswaarde, adoptie en besluitvorming.

Voor ons Data & AI-team zoeken we een Data Governance Consultant die structuur aanbrengt, eigenaarschap afdwingt en management meeneemt in volwassen datagebruik.

Jouw rol

Jij brengt orde in complexiteit.

Als Data Governance Consultant ben jij de drijvende kracht achter het professionaliseren van data governance binnen complexe organisaties. Je verbindt strategie, operatie en technologie tot één werkend geheel — en zorgt dat data geen risico is, maar een versneller.

Je opereert als trusted advisor voor C-level, management, business, architecten en datateams.
Waar eigenaarschap ontbreekt, organiseer jij het.
Waar besluitvorming stokt, breng jij helderheid.
Waar governance versnipperd is, bouw jij samenhang.

Dit is geen rol waarin je “een framework uitrolt”.
Je bouwt een operating model dat blijft werken.

Wat je doet (in de praktijk)

Strategie & operating model

• Ontwerpen en implementeren van data governance strategieën en operating models (o.a. DAMA-DMBOK).

• Vertalen van businessdoelen naar governanceprincipes, rollen, policies en werkprocessen.

• Uitvoeren van data maturity assessments en volwassenheidsscans.

• Vertalen van business use cases naar data-initiatieven en concrete roadmaps.

• Adviseren van management en directie over governance, risico’s en prioriteiten.

Governance & stewardship

• Opzetten en activeren van data stewardship (top-down én bottom-up).

• Inrichten van besluitvorming rondom definities, standaarden, business rules en datakwaliteit.

• Organiseren van steering, ownership en governance-structuren die gedragen worden.

Data quality, metadata & lineage

• Werken met datamodellering (basisniveau), data lineage en impactanalyses.

• Inrichten en verbeteren van datakwaliteit- en datamanagementprocessen.

• Ondersteunen van data product teams bij datacontracten en lifecycle management.

Alignment & change

• Faciliteren van workshops en werksessies op verschillende organisatieniveaus.

• Actief stakeholdermanagement in complexe en soms politieke omgevingen.

• Overbruggen van business en IT — inclusief het oplossen van spanningen en escalaties.

• Vergroten van data literacy, eigenaarschap en bewustzijn door de hele organisatie.

• Richting, focus en tempo brengen in governance- en verandertrajecten.
