Director Data Modeling

Project overview

As Director of Data Modeling, you will bring together internal and external stakeholders for the setup and management of the Provincial Data Model (PGM). You will participate in the Data Office on behalf of the Data Modeling and Design knowledge area and represent the Province of South Holland in the inter-provincial Data Management working group.

You understand how data modeling relates to other knowledge areas from DAMA DMBOK, such as data warehousing, metadata management, and data architecture. You oversee both the technical operation of the PGM and its application within the organization, as well as its functional application within data domains. You are a discussion partner for stakeholders regarding data modeling.

Within the Information Transition program, you will ensure coherence between information in different systems. You will create conceptual information models and, in consultation with the Director of Metadata, stimulate the development of the new metadata schema.

The assignments for Information & Automation (I&A) are constantly challenged by external changes and internal needs and expectations. I&A, together with provincial users and partners, makes choices to maintain the delicate balance between available resources, meeting needs, renewal, and innovation.

The province of South Holland has a Microsoft environment and a virtualized desktop environment. The BI team is part of one of the Information & Automation assignments. The team is responsible for data management, data unlocking, functional and technical management, and the development of BI applications. The team also provides advice on business operations data, creates information products, and performs data analysis. It supports the primary tasks of the province: policy making and execution.

The Information & Automation department of the province of South Holland needs the deployment of an external candidate for the Director of Data Modeling assignment.
