Job Description:
Senior Program Lead, Finance Data Governance
About the Role
This role is responsible for leading the rollout of TJX Finance's Data Governance program across North America. Success in this position will come less from deep technical governance expertise and more from the ability to drive adoption, facilitate discussions, build relationships, and guide teams through change.
Working across Finance functions and leadership levels, this individual will coordinate rollout activities, lead workshops and training sessions, help teams understand governance concepts, and ensure initiatives stay on track. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys leading programs, influencing without authority, and turning strategy into action.
What You’ll Do
Finance Data Governance Program
Serve as the Finance lead for the rollout of Data Governance across North America, owning execution from kickoff through completion
Develop and deliver training, communications, and adoption materials that help Finance teams understand and apply Data Governance concepts
Lead working sessions with Finance teams to assess current state, align on expectations across core governance areas (definitions, ownership, lineage, criticality), and drive clear next steps
Partner with Enterprise Data & Analytics to ensure Finance’s approach remains aligned to the broader TJX vision and roadmap
Identify and recommend enhancements to materials and approaches based on real‑world rollout experience, ensuring the program scales smoothly and remains practical for Finance teams
Act as the primary point of contact for Finance teams navigating these efforts for the first time
High‑Exposure Stakeholder Partnership
Work directly with Finance stakeholders across multiple functions and levels, from analysts and managers through AVP+ leadership
Build strong working relationships through clear communication, structured facilitation, and consistent follow through
Provide program leadership with concise updates, insights, and recommendations, managing day‑to‑day execution independently and escalating issues when leadership input is required
Proactively identify risks, dependencies, and adoption challenges, and surface them early with proposed paths forward
Driving Execution & Momentum
Own day‑to‑day progress of the Finance rollout, ensuring momentum is maintained, decisions are driven to closure, and teams continue moving forward between formal touchpoints.
Plan and facilitate working sessions, trainings, and walkthroughs independently
Track progress, manage open items, and coordinate next steps across multiple parallel efforts
Apply change management principles to support sustainable adoption that extends beyond the initial engagement with each team
Data & Analytics Enablement (Secondary Focus)
In addition to Data Governance responsibilities, this role may have opportunities to support reporting, analytics, and process automation initiatives based on business priorities
Identify potential opportunities for process enhancement as you work with Finance teams, and connect them with the appropriate leaders within the broader Data & Analytics organization
What You Bring
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Computer Science, or a related field
Experience supporting organizational change management, communications, training, or user adoption initiatives
Strong facilitation skills with experience leading workshops, training sessions, working groups, or stakeholder meetings
Demonstrated ability to manage multiple workstreams, track actions, remove roadblocks, and drive initiatives to completion
Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders across multiple levels of an organization
Proven ability to translate complex concepts into practical, easy-to-understand guidance for business teams
Comfortable operating in ambiguity and helping teams navigate organizational change
What Success in this Role Looks Like
Finance teams understand foundational Data Governance concepts and expectations
Rollout activities are completed on schedule across multiple Finance functions
Working sessions result in clear ownership, decisions, and next steps
Stakeholders view the program as practical, valuable, and easy to engage with
Governance practices become embedded into day-to-day Finance processes
Work Environment
Hybrid work environment (mix of in‑office and remote, depending on location)
High degree of collaboration across Finance and data teams
Flexibility may be required during key rollout or implementation periods
Occasional travel may be required
