About the Role

The Data Governance & Enablement Lead is an exceptional communicator designed to bridge technical and non-technical audiences at all levels of the organization. This role champions a culture of data stewardship and self-service analytics in direct support of the ASPCA's mission to end cruelty to animals.

Reporting directly to the Director of Enterprise Data Management & Business Intelligence, you will assume day-to-day ownership of the newly established Enterprise Data Governance framework. Sponsored by senior leadership, this initiative drives coordination, continuous improvement, and long-term maturation across the organization. In parallel, you will contribute to Power BI standards, training, and best practices, helping to expand business intelligence capacity on a small but high-impact team.

This position requires a highly self-directed, proactive individual who can independently identify needs, initiate action, and advance priorities. The ideal candidate is a governance practitioner first, experienced in operationalizing frameworks and building data stewardship culture, who also brings hands-on Power BI skills and a genuine interest in enabling others to use data effectively.
