About Seun Ebenezer

Data Governance Leader | Trusted Advisor | Culture-Builder I’m Seun Ebenezer, a results-driven data governance manager with 15+ years’ experience turning chaotic data landscapes into trusted, business-ready assets. From food manufacturing in the UK to civil-engineering megaprojects in Nigeria, I design and operationalise governance frameworks that raise organisational maturity, reduce risk, and unlock growth. My super-power: translating board-level ambitions into clear people-process-technology roadmaps—then inspiring teams to deliver. I’ve led greenfield data governance initiative programmes for Greencore, increase data maturity models for Cadent Gas, built G/NDPR-compliant controls for insurance companies like NICON, and driven data management solutions like SAP MDM, Informatica, Collibra, Purview, AWS & Azure rollouts that surface “one version of the truth” across M&A-heavy environments e.t.c. Areas of Strength- Strategy & Frameworks: DAMA-aligned policies, ownership models, and data-quality controls that scale- Stakeholder Influence: Comfortable in the boardroom or on the shop floor—aligning executives, SMEs, and IT around shared KPIs- Transformation and Change Delivery: Agile PM rigour with hands-on tooling expertise to hit maturity targets (DMBoK Level 3+) within 12 months- Leadership: Mentor with DAMA UK, conference speaker on AI governance, and LinkedIn blogger (twice weekly) demystifying data excellence. Beyond my job, I lead the data governance and infrastructure role for a charity - We Are Here. I host Rooted Hearts on African Voices Radio (DAB), champion a Sheffield-based youth charity, and nurture a 600-member WhatsApp community of global data professionals—all fuelled by a passion for empowering others through knowledge of data and data management.
