The AVP, Data Governance – Stewardship, Metadata & Enablement is responsible for owning and advancing Arch Insurance North America's data stewardship model, business metadata foundations, and governance enablement capabilities. Reporting to the SVP, Data Governance, this role is accountable for delivery, adoption, and outcomes; decision facilitator; and active builder within a dynamic, evolving data governance environment.
This role is intentionally designed for individuals who are comfortable operating in ambiguity, validating logic and assumptions, and stepping into execution when momentum, clarity, or credibility requires it. Success is measured not just by strategy or structure, but by adoption, outcomes, and sustained execution across business and data stakeholders.
The AVP, Data Governance is a self-starter who is expected to identify what must be done next, propose an approach, and move execution forward with minimal prompting—while staying closely aligned to SVP intent and decision boundaries.
This role plays a critical role in enabling responsible, transparent, and scalable use of analytics and AI by ensuring that stewardship, metadata, lineage, and governance controls are fit for AI-driven decisioning and automation. The AVP is expected to understand how AI and advanced analytics depend on high-quality data, clear ownership, and strong metadata, and to incorporate these considerations into stewardship models, standards, enablement, and change execution.
This role operates in a highly dynamic environment where Data Governance capabilities, processes, and operating models are actively being built and refined, requiring comfort with ambiguity, iteration, and continuous improvement. Responsibilities may evolve over time to reflect changes in business, analytics, AI, or governance priorities, operating models, or initiative needs, while remaining aligned to this role’s core mandate and accountability.
This is a hybrid, three-times-a-week in-office role in our Jersey City Office.
1. Stewardship Program Ownership
Drive steward execution and consistency through direct engagement, facilitation, and follow‑through, reinforcing clear expectations and accountability for delivery.
Support reinforcement of Data Owner accountability through preparation, facilitation, and intervention, partnering with the SVP for direct engagement when senior‑level alignment or decision authority is required, and engaging more independently as experience and trust are established.
Continuously evolve the stewardship model, including onboarding and ongoing training plans, based on feedback, delivery signals, and changes in business or governance priorities.
Ensure the Data Stewardship Program explicitly supports analytics and AI use cases by defining stewardship expectations for AI‑relevant data sets, including data quality, lineage transparency, business context, and ongoing accountability.
2. Data Catalog & Stewardship Enablement
Establish, document, and enforce enterprise standards and best practices for metadata, lineage, and the data catalog—including definitions, documentation expectations, usage patterns, stewardship responsibilities, and support for analytics and AI use cases (e.g., explainability, provenance, and appropriate usage context).
