• Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly and understandably to non-technical stakeholders.
• Strong problem-solving skills and experience in addressing data quality issues.
• Knowledge of relevant data protection and data security laws and regulations, such as GDPR.

You need to be driven, take initiative and be confident as one of the few experts within the area of the organization in Sweden. You will need to act as a role model to others and be comfortable with inspiring and teaching others within this area.

It’s valuable if you have

• Experience of implementing data management frameworks and architectures, data lifecycle management and data quality management practice
