Greenfield is looking for a Data Governance Lead to join our growing team and play a pivotal role in one of the most transformative initiatives in the organization’s history—our enterprise-wide ERP transformation.

The Data Governance Lead is responsible for establishing and operationalizing the organization’s data governance framework while serving as a hands-on leader in data migration execution across a multi-system ERP transformation.

Beyond the transformation, this role will build out data governance as a sustained discipline across the organization, ensuring long-term data quality, consistency, and decision-making capability.
This role will have one direct report and will collaborate extensively with cross-functional teams including IT, Finance, Operations, and external implementation partners
