What I'm looking for

I'm looking for data governance work where I can strengthen data quality, ownership, metadata, and regulatory compliance through cross-functional collaboration.

At AXA UK, I support data governance frameworks, policies, and reporting that monitor data quality, governance maturity, and compliance in regulated environments. I work across business, technology, risk, and compliance teams to clarify data ownership and resolve governance risks and issues.

Previously at GSK and DPD Group, I developed ESG and enterprise data governance frameworks, configured Alation data catalogues, improved metadata and data lineage, and aligned governance practices with standards including GDPR, GRI, SASB, and ISO15489.
