Location: Wooburn Green, High Wycombe OR Letchworth Garden City
Hybrid working: A minimum of 2 days per week in the office, 3 days per week from home
Contract: Permanent
Hours: 37 hours per week (Monday–Friday)

Are you looking to join a growing, values-led organisation with a clear social purpose?

At SettleParadigm, we’re proud to be the largest housing group in the region, managing over 30,000 homes across Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, and Hertfordshire.

Everything we do is about delivering excellent services, high quality homes, neighbourhoods we can be proud of and maximising number of new affordable homes we build. Through our merger we’ve brought together shared values, skills and ambition, so we can build more affordable homes and make an even bigger difference in the communities we serve

If you're ready to grow your career in a supportive, inclusive environment while helping to shape stronger communities, we’d love to welcome you on our journey. Together, we’re building a better future.

If you’re a thoughtful and influential data leader who believes that great decisions start with great data, this is an exciting opportunity to shape how our organisation uses, manages and trusts its information.

About the Role

We’re looking for a confident and collaborative Head of Data Quality & Governance to lead the development and embedding of our enterprise‑wide data governance and data quality frameworks. This is a fundamental role at the heart of our transformation journey, ensuring our data is accurate, trusted, secure and used responsibly across the organisation.

You’ll work closely with senior leaders, system owners, data stewards and operational teams to build a culture of ownership, accountability and good data practice. You’ll bring clarity to complex issues, translate data risks into proportionate guidance, and help colleagues make confident, insight‑driven decisions.

This role is perfect for someone who understands that data quality and governance are not just about policies, they’re about people, behaviours and enabling the organisation to move forward with confidence.

Key Responsibilities:

Lead data quality monitoring and remediation, ensuring organisational data is accurate, consistent and trusted
Improve data quality at source through strong business partnership
Provide assurance on KPIs, reporting and regulatory submissions, including SDR
Maintain data standards and ownership models across the organisation
Promote data literacy and good data practice across teams
Lead and develop a specialist governance function
Embed enterprise‑wide data governance frameworks that support clarity, ownership and accountability
Ensure GDPR and data protection compliance

About You:

You’re a persuasive and pragmatic leader who brings clarity to complexity. You understand that data quality and governance are as much about culture and behaviour as they are about frameworks and controls. You’re curious, calm under pressure and able to influence senior stakeholders with confidence.

You balance assurance with practicality; helping the organisation move forward without unnecessary bureaucracy. You’re passionate about improving data quality at source and enabling colleagues to make better decisions through better information.

Must haves:

Experience leading data quality, data governance or information management functions
Experience improving data quality in complex organisations
Ability to influence and challenge constructively
Clear communication of data risk, assurance and recommendations

Strong understanding of:

Enterprise data quality management
Social housing regulatory reporting (TSMs, SDR, STAIRS)
Metadata, data lineage and data quality tooling
Data governance principles and frameworks
GDPR and regulatory data requirements

Nice to haves:

Experience supporting organisational integration or transformation
Experience working with regulators, auditors or inspection bodies
Knowledge of data standards and frameworks across housing services
Skills in workshop facilitation, organisational enablement and root‑cause analysis
Experience in housing, public sector or regulated environments
