Description
The Association of Native Child and Family Services Agencies of Ontario (ANCFSAO) is committed to staffing a workplace that is representative of the Indigenous population we serve. We encourage First Nations, Metis, and Inuit applicants to apply and please self-identify in their cover letter.

Position Summary :
In the simplest terms, we are looking for a person not only skilled in writing and running SQL in order to find data quality issues in our data, but also someone that will be able to take those findings and recommend corrections to the data team/council, and on approval, to make those changes in the front-end systems.
In industry terms, this means we’re looking for a hybrid role between a data steward (35%) and a data manager (65%), someone with sound technical knowhow around relational databases like a data manager, but that can also use those findings to quantifiably increase the quality of the organization’s data by making corrections to the data, like a data steward.

Responsibilities and Skills:
▪ 3-5 years robust experience in SQL, with a good understanding of the theory underlying relational algebra – unions (full outer joins), intersections (inner joins), and variations enabled by left and right joins
▪ 3-5 years experience in data quality as a data manager, with a strong ability to analyze data
▪ 3-5 years experience in data quality as a data steward, identifying critical data elements and co-defining data quality metrics and thresholds for those critical data elements, as well as identifying and correcting data quality issues by means of these findings
▪ A willingness to learn to use our member agency’s front-end system(s), which will be used to capture the corrected data into
▪ Technical writing - the ability to create structured reports, highlighting how data varies from the data quality rules that have been defined for each data element, and to thus formally document results as part of the audit record
▪ Capturing the metadata related to each critical data element in an agency repository or in an alternative tool. The nature of this metadata should include the meaning of the data element, and whether the data element constitutes Personally Identifiable Information (PII)
▪ Numeracy – strong grasp of algebra
▪ Interpersonal skills, predominantly with the operations part of the business
▪ Problem solving skills
▪ Data quality process development experience
▪ Data quality policy development experience
▪ Certified Data Management Professional (CDMP)

This position will be in Toronto, Ontario, with the opportunity to work virtually as well. Travel within Ontario may be required.
