Full job description

Home to the world's best loved and trusted hygiene, health, and nutrition brands. Our purpose defines why we exist: to protect, heal and nurture in the relentless pursuit of a cleaner, healthier world. We are a global team united by this purpose.
Join us in our fight to make access to the highest quality hygiene, wellness, and nourishment a right and not a privilege.

Information Technology & Digital

In IT&D, you'll be a force for good, whether you're championing cyber security, defining how we harness the power of technology to improve our business, or working with data to guide the innovation of consumer loved products.

Working globally across functions, you'll own your projects and process from start to finish, with the influence and visibility to achieve what needs to be done. And if you're willing to bring your ideas to the table, you'll get the support and investment to make them happen.

Your potential will never be wasted. You'll get the space and support to take your development to the next level. Every day, there will be opportunities to learn from peers and leaders through working on exciting, varied projects with real impact. And because our work spans so many different businesses, from Research and Product Development to Sales, you'll keep learning exciting new approaches.

About the role

The Global Data Governance Director is a senior leadership role responsible for building, executing, and sustaining the enterprise-wide data governance strategy. Reporting to the VP, Global Data & Analytics, this role ensures that the company’s data are trusted, standardized, well-governed, and available as a strategic asset to enable business growth, regulatory compliance, and digital transformation. The successful candidate will chair Global Data Governance committees to drive data feasibility assessments (i.e. data availability, quality, consistency and synergies) and will monitor compliance of the current Group / BU projects with Data Governance standards.

The Director will lead three specialized sub-teams covering data domain stewardship, master data technology platforms and foundational datasets as products in the company’s data lake. This leader will work closely with business stakeholders, technology partners, and executive leadership to drive data quality at source, implementing scalable governance processes, and promoting a culture of data literacy and accountability across the enterprise.

Your responsibilities

Define and lead the enterprise-wide Data Governance strategy, ensuring alignment with business objectives, digital transformation priorities, advanced analytics initiatives, AI readiness, and regulatory requirements, while driving a culture of accountability and data-driven decision-making across the organisation.
Influence and engage senior stakeholders at executive level, building understanding of the strategic value of data governance, securing sponsorship for key initiatives, and navigating complex trade-offs to ensure data is managed as a critical business asset that enables sustainable value creation.
Lead a global Data Governance organisation, overseeing Data Domain Stewardship, Master Data Technology Platforms, and Governance & Compliance teams, and fostering strong collaboration across functions, geographies, shared services, and external partners to deliver an integrated governance programme.
Establish and embed data governance frameworks, policies, standards, and controls, ensuring consistent adoption across all business areas, monitoring compliance, and driving continuous improvement in data quality, data management practices, and governance maturity.
Drive excellence in master data management, owning the vision and evolution of MDM platforms and related technologies, while partnering with enterprise architecture and IT teams to ensure scalable, automated, and integrated solutions that support critical business processes and data products.
Champion data quality, stewardship, and operational accountability, empowering data stewards to define standards and quality expectations, improving data quality at source, facilitating governance forums, and ensuring clear ownership of remediation activities across critical data domains.
Deliver measurable business value from data governance investments, developing robust business cases, defining KPIs and success measures, tracking governance performance through scorecards and reporting, and demonstrating tangible outcomes through improved decision-making, risk reduction, regulatory compliance, operational efficiency, and cost optimisation.

The experience we're looking for

Extensive and proven experience in data governance, data management, or enterprise information management, with at least 5 years in a senior leadership role directly managing Senior Managers and budgets in the £M ranges.
Proven success in building and leading global data governance programs in complex, matrixed organizations.
Experience managing MDM platforms, data stewardship frameworks, and data product lifecycle.
Demonstrable experience building and managing teams to deliver complex data & analytics requirements
Demonstrable experience building and delivering data & analytics strategies at global level that quantify value that good data brings to an organization.
Expert in defining and running data governance operational processes: DQ measurements and tools, Data Maturity assessments, data architecture and technical solutions, policies and standards enforcement.

The skills for success

Deep knowledge of data governance frameworks (e.g., DAMA-DMBOK), master data management, and data quality management.
Strong leadership and influencing skills, able to engage stakeholders at all levels.
Excellent understanding of data architecture, data lakes, and data product thinking.
Strong program management and change management skills.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to simplify complex data topics for business audiences.
Agile mindset and ability to pivot when needed and to resolve difficult conversations
Passionate mentor for more junior colleagues with an interest to develop and coach people.

What we offer

With inclusion at the heart of everything we do, working alongside our four global Employee Resource Groups, we support our people at every step of their career journey, helping them to succeed in their own individual way.
We invest in the wellbeing of our people through parental benefits, an Employee Assistance Program to promote mental health, and life insurance for all employees globally. We have a range of other benefits in line with the local market. Through our global share plans we offer the opportunity to save and share in Reckitt's potential future successes. For eligible roles, we also offer short-term incentives to recognise, appreciate and reward your work for delivering outstanding results. You will be rewarded in line with Reckitt's pay for performance philosophy.

Equality

We recognise that in real life, great people don't always 'tick all the boxes'. That's why we hire for potential as well as experience. Even if you don't meet every point on the job description, if this role and our company feels like a good fit for you, we still want to hear from you.
