Job Description

From the day we opened our doors in 1971, MRI Software has built flexible, game-changing real estate software solutions to improve people's lives. The only way to carry out that mission is to hire the absolute best employees on earth. People like you.
Work hard, play hard. Always. Our relentless commitment to client success, our employee resource groups and our promise to empower our teams to reach their full potential are a few examples of what makes MRI Software special.
And we're insanely dedicated to creating a work environment that you look forward to every single day. That's why we invest heavily in our employee engagement, so you enjoy the tech industry's best perks.
We understand the need to provide a flexible working environment partnered with team collaboration and socialisation. Therefore, we operate a hybrid working model with 3 days of working from home per week.
As part of our global Data Monetisation initiative, we are building a trusted, scalable data aggregation environment - "The Data Factory" - to power internal innovation and external data licensing opportunities. We are seeking experienced and responsible Data Stewards to play a pivotal role in enabling this strategic capability.
The Data Steward will act as a critical interface between our internal data producers (including product managers and owners of core application platforms) and the centralised data environment. You will be responsible for safely, legally, and efficiently facilitating the flow of high-quality data into The Data Factory, ensuring it is well-governed, catalogued, and ready for operational and commercial use.
This is a highly cross-functional role requiring both strong technical data sourcing skills and a deep understanding of data governance, risk, and regulatory standards.
Key Responsibilities

• Data Onboarding & Sourcing
• Partner with internal application product teams to identify, assess, and source high-value data.
• Facilitate the safe and responsible ingestion of this data into The Data Factory, ensuring compliance with legal, regulatory, and ethical standards.
• Understand and respect data sovereignty, contractual obligations, and customer terms.
• Governance & Compliance
• Ensure all sourced data meets governance criteria for accuracy, completeness, lineage, and permissible use.
• Maintain evidence of compliance for audit and legal purposes.
• Work with legal and data privacy teams to validate consent frameworks and data usage rights.
• Data Catalogue & Metadata Management
• Curate and manage the organisation's data catalogue for contributed datasets.
• Classify and tag data using standard taxonomies and business definitions.
• Promote data discoverability and reuse across internal and external audiences.
• Operational Responsiveness
• Respond to external data consumer sample validation requests within 1 business day, ensuring correct sourcing, compliance, and data quality.
• Troubleshoot data quality issues and coordinate resolution with producers and engineering teams.
• Collaboration & Advocacy
• Champion responsible data use and cultivate strong relationships across technology, legal, product, and data science teams.
• Contribute to best practices and playbooks for data onboarding and stewardship.

Key Capabilities & Experience

• 5+ years experience in data stewardship, data governance, or data operations roles, ideally in a technology-led organisation.
• Proven ability to source, assess, and steward data from complex application environments.
• Deep understanding of data privacy laws (e.g., GDPR, CCPA), data contracts, and data usage governance.
• Strong knowledge of metadata management, data cataloguing tools, and data quality practices.
• Working knowledge of data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, Databricks, Azure, or equivalent).
• Excellent relationship and stakeholder management skills - especially with product managers, legal teams, and engineering.
• Ability to work autonomously, manage priorities, and deliver outcomes in a fast-paced environment.
