Condé Nast thrives on collaboration, and our teams come together in the office four days a week (Monday - Thursday). We value diversity of background, views and cultures. We celebrate people for their personal qualities, skills and contributions, recognising the power our brands have to influence and shape culture. The cross-functional Data Governance function, in which the role sits, is an integral part of our overall business strategy, helping us to generate value through the use of our first party data in line with regulatory compliance.
