Contract Type: Long-term contract

Pay Rate: $58/hr

ROLE OVERVIEW

Our 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.

RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Partner closely with the Data Governance Manager on a team-wide governance transformation, shifting from an approval-based model to a triage-based, cross-functional governance approach that incorporates privacy, policy, and auditing
  • Manage and maintain the Alation data cataloging platform, including metadata validation, connector management, token upkeep, and user onboarding
  • Build and enhance workflows using Microsoft Power Automate, including approval flows and integrations connecting systems that do not natively communicate
  • Prepare and deliver executive-level presentations and project updates to SVP and senior leadership
  • 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
REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
  • 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)
  • Familiarity with data cataloging platforms such as Alation or a comparable tool
  • Experience presenting to and communicating with VP or SVP-level stakeholders
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple competing priorities in a fast-changing environment
  • Strong process orientation paired with big-picture strategic thinking
  • Experience with AI tools (Copilot, similar agents) in a professional setting
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with a polished, professional presence
NICE-TO-HAVE SKILLS
  • SQL (basic to intermediate)
  • Python or JSON experience
  • BI background (Tableau or similar)
  • Background in privacy or policy compliance
  • Experience with metadata management frameworks or governance standards
  • Experience navigating organizational change or merger integrations
