Description:

Partners across the enterprise to build and strengthen governance capabilities across data, information, and emerging AI programs — translating ambiguous needs into practical processes, documentation, and tools.

Why This Role Exists:
We're growing our governance function across multiple programs — Data Governance, Information Governance, and AI Governance — each at a different point in its journey, some established and maturing, others being built from the ground up. This role offers the chance to do both: strengthen what's working and shape what's still being defined, moving between programs as priorities shift.
