data steward consultant / senior consultant @ thessaloniki

You will be part of the Global Delivery Network (GDN), supporting the AI Ready Market Data initiative for Deloitte Belgium.

You will report functionally to the Data Governance Lead for the initiative and work with Internal Knowledge Managers (quality assurance), ITS Data & Analytics (technical implementation), DRD stakeholders (retention and archival), and BU/Industry champions (practitioner engagement).

#AboutYourRole

As a Data Steward you will:

• Play a key role in a flagship initiative at the heart of Deloitte’s data and AI transformation; help build an AI-ready marketplace that will reshape how practitioners discover and reuse knowledge.

• Help shape enterprise governance by contributing operational insights that inform how Deloitte governs, curates, and activates market data—with visible impact on how teams work.

• Build in-demand skills in data governance, AI readiness, and knowledge management with mentorship and support from experienced leaders in a structured, supportive environment.

• Work in a global GDN environment, collaborating with diverse stakeholders across business, technology, and risk—developing valuable cross-functional expertise.

• Join at a formative moment where your ideas can still influence processes, standards, and ways of working; you won’t be inheriting legacy systems, but helping build something new.

#YourResponsibilities

• Contribute to day-to-day curation and lifecycle management of market data assets (proposals, qualifications, deliverables, thought leadership, methodologies, case studies) on KX/Solaria/Teams, ensuring they meet enterprise standards for quality, compliance, and AI readiness.

• Apply governance policies in practice by operationalizing CoRe cleansing standards, GDPR requirements, AI Act compliance, and client confidentiality rules into concrete curation workflows, checklists, and guidance that teams can follow.

• Ensure assets are high-quality, well-tagged, and AI-ready by helping establish and maintain metadata standards, taxonomy, tagging conventions, and contextual documentation that enable AI tools to discover and surface the right assets to practitioners.

• Coordinate across teams on asset identification, prioritization, cleansing, validation, and archival by working closely with BU/Industry champions, Internal Knowledge Managers, ITS Data & Analytics, and DRD stakeholders.

• Monitor quality and drive improvement by helping define and track quality KPIs (target ≥95%), conducting spot-checks and audits, identifying root causes of issues, and feeding improvement ideas into governance forums.

• Support practitioner adoption by creating clear guidance on how to nominate and use assets, answering curation questions, and gathering feedback to continuously improve the marketplace experience.
