Business Analyst Data Lineage Platform

At Rabobank, we believe that trusted data is the foundation of better decisions, stronger customer experiences and sustainable growth. As we continue our journey towards becoming an even more data-driven organisation, understanding where our data comes from, how it moves through the organisation, and how it creates value has never been more important.

To support this ambition, we are evolving our Enterprise Data Lineage Platform into a strategic capability that empowers both business and technology teams with greater transparency, insight and control. We are looking for a Business Analyst who is passionate about data governance, stakeholder engagement and organisational change to help drive this transformation.

This is not a traditional analyst role. You will play a key part in shaping the future of Data Lineage within Rabobank by helping stakeholders understand the value of lineage, increasing adoption across the organisation, and translating business needs into solutions that create measurable impact.
