What will your typical day look like?

Deloitte Global is the engine of the Deloitte network. Our professionals reach across disciplines and borders to develop and lead global initiatives. We deliver strategic programs and services that unite our organization.

The Data Strategy & Governance Senior Manager role is a unique role that will drive immediate and global impact to help lead the formation and build the foundations of the new Data Strategy & Governance Office (DSGO) at Deloitte Global.

In this role, you will help lead the definition, development, and implementation of Deloitte Global’s approach for data governance and data management capabilities in alignment with the organization’s objectives and multi-regional requirements. By consulting, influencing, and partnering with key stakeholders, you will conduct assessments, identify gaps, and provide recommendations on how to cultivate data as a critical asset across the organization.
