WHAT TO EXPECT

Digital transformation is at the heart of delivering Reimagine, our new global strategy.

Digital is the driving force to transform our business, powered by data and technology. Our vision is to become a digital leader. We know what it means to be cutting edge - our application of graph technology and intelligent automation is already award-winning.

We also know developing talented people is vital to our digital strategy.

We innovate effectively, move with purpose, and learn fast. We’re growing diverse teams and working with the best tech partners globally. We’re developing and investing in great talent and creating a flexible, fun, meaningful environment for them, and you, to thrive.

This role will lead the development of one or more specialisms of data management (e.g. Metadata Management, Data Quality Management, Data Modelling & Design, Master & Reference Data Management and Document & Content Management) and will be responsible for implementing and orchestrating data governance & management practices across JLR.

As one of the key members of the Enterprise Data Team they will also be able to influence and shape JLR Data Strategy and will work closely with their peers in the Enterprise Data Team, JLR’s Digital function and other Business functions. Strong communication, influencing and delivery skills are crucial to be successful in this role, as the management and value of JLR’s data assets will be key to delivering the strategy successfully and at pace.

Data Strategy and Data Management are fast evolving topics. We’re not looking for someone with all the answers on these topics. No one has that. We’re looking to assemble a diverse team with deep experience in data that will shape data at JLR and who are keen to keep learning and adapting as the technologies in this area continue to evolve. The team will strive to deliver value, quickly, to the most critical enterprise data assets.

An excellent level of ability to understand data structures, analyse data flows across systems and processes, and identify key owners and actors.

A sound knowledge of supporting end-to-end business processes and underlying data, in a complex and multi-domain organisation. A proven track record of translating business requirements and needs into prioritised data requirements, as well as delivering operational processes and standards to embed data management practices.

SO WHY US?

Bring all this to the home of premium innovation, and you’ll find the opportunities to further your career with a world-class team, a discounted car purchase and lease scheme for you and your family, membership of a competitive pension plan, private medical cover and performance related bonus scheme. As a manager, you’ll also be able to select one of our luxury premium vehicles to lease at a fraction of the cost.
