Our requirements

About the role

Data Modeler / Metadata Analyst will support the Catalogue & Definition functional group. The role involves close partnership with Stakeholders and SME's to extend, modify, and link to the Firm's enterprise Business Information Model. The Data Modeler / Metadata Analyst will work closely with the Data Modeling Lead to ensure consistent implementation of data modeling processes, including data identification, prioritization, and documentation.

Major Challenges:

• Ambiguity – the role requires navigating data management implementation approaches and policies that are yet to be fully defined and established in the US

• Ownership – the role requires the navigation of the structure and roles across the new US Data & Architecture Office (DAO)

• Flexibility and adaptability – constantly changing priorities and tasks that are potentially highly restricted in nature, unpredictable and wide-ranging, complex and time-sensitive requires the simultaneous handling of a broad range of issues

• Stakeholder considerations – the role requires the highest quality, most succinct output that is suitable for senior executive management and external parties (including regulators) at all times, regardless of pressures

• Sensitivity and trust – engendering a true sense of urgency, pace, community, and collaboration across indirectly managed areas across the DAO community

• The diverse responsibility of the role and the number of jurisdictions with which the US operates requires the role holder to be highly efficient and able to deal with a high volume of both highly confidential and commercially sensitive information, with discretion

• Operating, influencing, and communicating effectively with all stakeholders and other colleagues both inside and outside the various functions

• Thinking and acting independently, often within tight timeframes, formulating sound advice or actions which have clear direction and are commercially and operationally acceptable

Role Context:

• The role holder needs to perform a proactive, collaborative role across the US DAO

• HSBC is going through an unprecedented period of change in its move to a sustainable globally led and connected organization. There is increasing external scrutiny and pressure on the Financial Services industry from governments, regulators, media, investors, and brokers. The role holder needs to understand the impact of all these changes on the US DAO and support the lead accordingly

• The role holder will be required to interact with many internal and external parties at the highest level of management and therefore needs an outstanding level of professionalism and gravitas, coupled with strong program management skills
