Data Governance & Enablement Manager Senior

Capital Group•Charlotte, NC

About The Position

Capital Group's Enterprise Data Governance (EDG) team is transforming how a $2.7 trillion global investment management firm governs its data — moving from manual, policy-driven governance to AI-powered, automated governance at enterprise scale. This role is not a "steady state" governance role. The Senior Manager will be rolling up their sleeves alongside their team to build new capabilities, pioneer governance-as-code practices, and drive adoption across a complex, federated organization. The ideal candidate thrives in environments where the playbook is still being written and is energized by doing the work — not just directing it. As the Data Governance & Enablement Manager Senior, you will lead the governance transformation, own the enterprise data governance strategy and operating model across investment, operations, and client domains, and personally drive its evolution. You will pioneer AI-enabled governance and drive enterprise adoption through change leadership. In this role, you will build and develop a high-performing team of managers and senior individual contributors.

Requirements

At least 10 years of progressive experience in data governance, data management, or information management.
At least 3 years of demonstrated success leading high-performing teams.
Demonstrated experience building governance programs or capabilities from the ground up.
Hands-on experience leveraging AI/ML for governance automation, including governance-as-code, policy-as-code, automated controls, AI-driven data quality monitoring, and other technologies that improve compliance, risk management, and control effectiveness.
Technical foundation includes experience with cloud data platforms (Databricks, AWS), modern data architecture (CD/CI pipelines), and governance tooling platforms (Collibra or similar technology).
Strong background with change management practices including driving adoption and behavioral change across large, complex organizations.
Expertise includes data governance practices and frameworks for highly regulated environments (i.e., SEC, FINRA, and EU AI Act).
