What I'm looking for
In my current Private Banking & Wealth Management engagement, I facilitate DORA workshops and map data lineage across core systems, from conceptual models to the application layer. I also manage the Enterprise Data Catalogue in Collibra and implement governance practices aligned with DAMA-DMBOK.
At the European Investment Bank, I led a team of four consultants and delivered BCBS 239 data lineage, quality frameworks, and risk data aggregation processes.
