As a Planning Manager (Data Governance) at Queen Mary, University of London, you'll lead initiatives to enhance data quality, integrity, and usability across the organisation.

In addition to your data governance role, you'll oversee a team managing Statutory Returns to regulatory agencies. Balancing strategic oversight and operational excellence, you'll ensure regulatory compliance while fostering a culture of continuous improvement in data processes.
