About this role

Position Overview:
BlackRock is seeking a highly skilled and motivated Associate to support its growing and dynamic data governance function. In this role, you will be responsible for ensuring that data products are accurately defined and compliant with data governance policies. You will work closely with cross-functional teams—including business stakeholders and technical teams—to oversee the full lifecycle of data products from ideation to delivery. The ideal candidate will have at least 4 years of experience in data governance and data management or stewardship, and will thrive in a fast-paced, results-driven environment.

Key Responsibilities:
As an Associate Data Steward, your responsibilities will span several key areas:

  • Business & Strategic Acumen: You will collaborate closely with business units to understand evolving data requirements to effectively govern data products to meet strategic goals and objectives. You will ensure that data products support various use cases, such as operational efficiencies, risk management, and commercial applications, while defining success criteria for data offerings in collaboration with key stakeholders.
  • Data Governance & Quality: A core aspect of this role is managing data quality through the application of robust data governance controls. You will be responsible for ensuring risk management and overseeing the framework by which data health can be monitored. You will monitor data quality metrics, and hold stewards accountable so that their products meet established standards for accuracy, completeness, and consistency.
  • Data Product Lifecycle Management: You will oversee the full delivery lifecycle of data products, from ideation to release. This includes working with cross-functional teams—such as product managers, engineers, and business stakeholders—to bake in data governance controls into the planning and design of products.
  • Stakeholder Management: You will work with both internal and external stakeholders to ensure that data products align with organizational goals, address customer needs and meet policy standards. Regular engagement with stakeholders will be key to soliciting feedback on data products and identifying opportunities for enhancement.
  • Collaboration & Communication: You will communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical teams, ensuring that complex data concepts are conveyed clearly. Your collaboration with internal and external teams will ensure that data solutions align with business goals and industry best practices. You will be expected to work in an agile environment, managing multiple priorities to ensure efficient and timely data product delivery.

Qualifications & Requirements:
The ideal candidate will possess the following qualifications:

  • Experience: At least 4 years of experience in data governance, or a related field. Experience in the financial services industry is a plus, but not required. A strong background in data quality management is essential.
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency in data management tools and technologies such as SQL, Python, Jupyter Notebook, Unix, Hadoop, Spark SQL, Tableau, etc. Metadata Management / Data Modeling (CDM/LDM/PDM) and experience with Data Governance tools for data management and quality assurance is preferred. Knowledge of databases (Relational, NoSQL, Graph) and cloud-based data platforms (e.g., Snowflake) is also beneficial.
  • Business & Communication Skills: Strong business acumen and the ability to align data products with both organizational and client needs. You should be able to effectively communicate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities in an agile environment are essential.
