About The Position

Enterprise Data and Records supports the consistent and effective management of data and records across CIBC. As a strategic advisor on the team, you'll provide consultative support to business and technology partners to help them align with enterprise governance expectations.

You'll influence the design of business and technology solutions by helping partners identify gaps, understand available options, demonstrate alignment, and determine where alternate processes or risk mitigation may be appropriate. You'll also support the use of enterprise platforms, including scenarios where business needs extend beyond out-of-the-box capabilities.
