JOB SUMMARY:
We are seeking an experienced Data Governance Lead to establish, mature, and continuously evolve the enterprise data governance function at Axis Max Life Insurance. This role owns the long-term governance vision — building a framework that scales with the organization’s data footprint as new domains, data products, and analytical use cases emerge.
The role operates at the intersection of business and technology — partnering with Data Owners (senior business stakeholders), Data Stewards (business teams), and Data Custodians (Data Engineering and Platform teams) to ensure data assets are governed, discoverable, trusted, and compliant with applicable data protection and insurance regulations.
This is a hands-on leadership role. The incumbent will define and continuously refine the governance operating model, chair governance councils and working groups, select and implement governance tooling appropriate to the organization’s maturity, and drive sustained adoption across the enterprise.
