Junior Data Governance Manager

London (Hybrid)

£550-£600 per day (Outside IR35)

We're supporting a global travel leader in scaling their data governance and data management capability, with a focus on improving data quality, metadata, and regulatory alignment across their data platform.

They are looking for a Junior Data Governance Manager to join their London-based team, working closely with data, product, and business stakeholders.

The Role

This is not a data engineering role - the focus is on data governance, quality, and management across a large-scale, data-driven environment.

You'll support the rollout of governance frameworks and help drive better data practices across the organisation.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support implementation of data governance frameworks and standards
  • Drive improvements in data quality, lineage, and metadata management
  • Work with stakeholders to establish data ownership and stewardship
  • Support use and adoption of data cataloguing and governance tools
  • Assist with regulatory and compliance requirements (GDPR)
  • Collaborate with data architecture and data management teams

Required Experience

  • Experience in data governance, data management, or data quality roles
  • Strong understanding of:
    • Data quality
    • Metadata
    • Data lineage
  • Hands-on exposure to tools such as:
    • Collibra (key)
    • Monte Carlo (desirable)
  • Strong working knowledge of SQL and/or Python
  • Experience working in cloud data environments

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to AI tools (eg Claude)
  • Experience in large, data-driven organisations
  • Background in travel, e-commerce, or digital platforms
  • Awareness of Snowflake (beneficial, not essential)

Important

  • This role requires careful level alignment - suited to candidates with solid governance experience stepping into a broader ownership role
  • Not suited to pure data engineers

Why Apply?

  • Work within a high-impact data governance function
  • Be part of a globally recognised digital business
  • Opportunity to grow into a more senior data management role
  • Competitive day rate outside IR35
