Arbeitsbeschreibung - Data Governance Principal (m/f/d)


Your Tasks

As Data Governance Lead (m/f/d), be a core member of the central Data & AI function, responsible for operationalizing MediaMarktSaturn's federated data governance framework across ~11 markets. Work closely with Global Data Domain Owners, regional teams, and cross-functional stakeholders to ensure data is trusted, compliant, and fit for purpose — at enterprise scale.


 



  • Ownership and continuous evolution of the enterprise data governance framework, including policies, standards, data classification, and metadata management

  • Coordination of the Data Domain Council, including support of domain working groups, resolution of conflicting priorities between domains and escalation of unresolved issues with clear options

  • Leadership of data quality governance through the definition of KPIs, escalation paths, and remediation workflows in collaboration with domain leads

  • Maintenance and continuous enhancement of the enterprise data catalog and business glossary on GCP/BigQuery, leveraging tools such as Dataplex, DataHub, and Collibra

  • Support of GDPR compliance activities, including data classification, PII discovery, and maintenance of Records of Processing Activities (RoPA)

  • Close collaboration with Legal, Tax, IT Security, and Data Privacy teams to ensure alignment of governance frameworks with regulatory and risk requirements

  • Monitoring and reporting of governance maturity across domains, with a focus on continuous improvement and progress reporting to the Data Board

  • Functioning as the operational interface between the central Data & AI team and business-side domain leads, ensuring translation of governance requirements into actionable processes

Your Profile


  • Several years in data governance, data management, or a related discipline in a complex, multi-market organization

  • Proven ability to drive governance adoption in a federated model — influencing and gaining genuine commitment from stakeholders without formal authority over them

  • Strong command of data governance frameworks and best practices (e.g., DAMA-DMBOK); ability to adapt them pragmatically to organizational context

  • Hands-on experience with data catalog and metadata tools — Dataplex, DataHub, Collibra, or similar

  • Familiarity with GDPR and data privacy requirements, ideally in a retail or consumer context

  • Proven ability to work in a federated model — influencing without direct authority across business and technology stakeholders

  • Cloud data platform experience, ideally GCP/BigQuery

  • Excellent communication skills in English; German is a strong plus
