As Information Governance Manager, you will be central to embedding a culture of robust management, working across the organisation to lead, coordinate and support knowledge, information & data governance policies, processes, and technologies.

In the role, you can expect to work across corporate information management and advising on information governance for individual projects and programmes of work, supporting biodiversity and nature conversation in the UK and internationally.
