ROLE OVERVIEWOur client is in the middle of one of the most significant chapters in its history. With a new merger now officially approved and integration underway, the Data Governance team is not standing still. They are actively redesigning how governance is done, shifting from a traditional approval model to a comprehensive, triage-based approach that connects privacy, policy, auditing, and data cataloging into a unified framework.
This contract opportunity puts you directly alongside the Data Governance Manager as her closest collaborator. You will lead technical initiatives, guide junior team members, support a four-pillar governance transformation, build Power Automate workflows, and present to SVP-level stakeholders. If you thrive when priorities shift quickly and want a role with real organizational visibility, this one delivers.

- Build and enhance workflows using Microsoft Power Automate, including approval flows and integrations connecting systems that do not natively communicate

- Provide technical guidance and day-to-day support to junior contractors on the team
- Participate in triage meetings with data requestors, ensuring requirements are captured and compliance standards are maintained
- Collaborate with privacy and policy teams to ensure governance efforts meet organizational and regulatory standards
- Track requests, surface trends, and generate metrics using Tableau dashboards
- Engage with end users and cross-functional stakeholders to gather requirements and maintain strong working relationships
- Adapt quickly as team priorities evolve through ongoing merger integration
- 3 or more years of experience in data governance, data operations, or a closely related corporate technical role
- Hands-on experience with Microsoft Power Automate, including building or maintaining automation workflows (this is a high priority)
