Job Description

A public sector organisation is undertaking a significant, multi-year business transformation - redesigning its operating model and building enterprise data foundations across Dynamics 365, Fabric, Dataverse and Azure.

They're seeking a Program Technical Lead - Data to provide senior, hands on data leadership across the enterprise data foundation phase of the program. This role suits someone who wants deep, hands on ownership of a program's data foundations - not just a governance framework on paper.

Based in Melbourne (hybrid, onsite requirement), reporting to the Data, Integration and Automation Coordinator.

Key Responsibilities
  • Support development of the enterprise data strategy, governance framework and data management practices
  • Establish and mature data governance - ownership, stewardship, standards, metadata and lifecycle management
  • Lead data quality activities across transformation work packages - profiling, cleansing, validation, monitoring, remediation
  • Support definition and governance of master data domains
  • Lead development of program data models, data dictionaries and a common data vocabulary
  • Provide senior data expertise across Microsoft Fabric, Dataverse and Azure data services (Dynamics experience a plus)
  • Support data migration and validation to ensure new platforms launch with trusted data
  • Uplift data capability across the organisation through mentoring and coaching
About You
  • Extensive senior experience in data governance, data quality, MDM, data architecture, modelling or migration
  • Experience providing senior advice and delivery leadership on major transformation, ERP, CRM or digital platform programs
  • Strong knowledge of Microsoft Dataverse, Azure data services and modern data platforms (Fabric/Dynamics highly desirable)
  • Advanced data quality management capability - profiling, cleansing, reconciliation, root cause analysis
  • Strong grasp of privacy, information security, cyber security and regulatory obligations
  • Relevant tertiary qualification in information systems, data management or analytics, or extensive equivalent experience

Applications will be shortlisted as they are received, so early applications are encouraged.
