Are you an experienced Head of Data? Do you have a proven track record of designing and implementing a Data Strategy encompassing Data Governance and Advanced Analytics?

I’m currently working on a really exciting opportunity for a proven Head of Data to join a leading Wealth Manager (ideally Sydney based but there is flexibility for very strong candidates).
 
You will be responsible for leading an established Data function of around 30 people, including 5 reports at Director level, to drive results and unlock the value of their data.
 
They have tons of captured data and would expect you to design and deliver a Data strategy that will build the foundations of their Data function, encompassing Data Management and Governance frameworks, and a roadmap that will advance their Analytics & Insights capabilities, eventually utilising advanced AI tools.
 
Your new team are highly skilled and are searching for a Leader with a strong technical and mathematical background, capable of imagining a Data Strategy that will help them to achieve their business goals.
 
You will have full delegation for the Data function, sitting just two levels away from the CEO, regularly engaging with him and giving you the opportunity to sell your vision.
 
Your Profile
  • You live and breathe data, using your mathematics and statistics background and expertise in Data Governance and Analytics to drive change
  • You are a strategic thinker, able to visualise the Data Strategy that is needed for the business to achieve its long-term goals
  • You are an experienced leader who can build relationships with an existing team and motivate them to achieve your strategy
  • You have strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to articulate your technical vision to a non-technical audience
  • You have strong experience working in heavily regulated environments
  • Knowledge of how to build a solid data foundation that will eventually be able to successfully unlock the power of advanced AI tools 
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a leading Australian FS provider who are undergoing a significant and exciting period of change. You will find that there is a lot of investment on offer to help you achieve your vision, and to help the business truly unlock the value of their data.
