Data Migration Lead – Stockholm
Stockholm · Permanent
The organisation
We are working with an established consultancy hiring into a newly created strategic role. They deliver complex data transformation initiatives for enterprise clients across multiple industries, working with business-critical systems and data assets alongside both global and local stakeholders.
The role
A senior position leading large-scale data migration projects end to end, from conception through to successful completion. You'd own the full lifecycle - assessment, planning, design, execution, testing, cutover and post-migration support - and be the person clients and internal teams look to when a migration has to land cleanly.
Day to day, you will:
- Lead complex, multi-phase migration programmes across enterprise environments
- Engage clients and internal stakeholders to understand requirements, identify risks and develop comprehensive migration strategies
- Own detailed migration planning including scope definition, resource allocation, timelines and success criteria
- Apply data quality assurance, validation methodologies and testing frameworks to protect data integrity throughout
- Identify, assess and mitigate risk, developing contingency and rollback strategies for mission-critical migrations
- Work across process teams, IT, deployment teams and business units, translating technical migration concepts into language non-technical stakeholders can act on
This is a delivery-owning role rather than an advisory one - you'd be accountable for migrations landing, not just for the plan.
What we're looking for
- 5+ years' hands-on experience in data migration, ETL and related IT projects
- Thorough expertise across the full end-to-end migration lifecycle
- Deep hands-on ETL and data integration experience in complex enterprise environments
- Proven experience running migrations using industry-standard tooling such as ADMM Syniti, Informatica, SAP BODS or equivalent
- Strong project management background delivering multi-phase initiatives on time and in scope
- Comfortable managing stakeholders from technical teams through to C-suite, with strong communication and presentation skills
- Previous consulting and project delivery experience across multiple large enterprise clients
- Broad exposure across industries and migration scenarios
- Fluent written and spoken Swedish and English
- SQL is a useful addition for validation and troubleshooting, though not required
Why join
- A newly created role with genuine scope to shape how migrations are delivered
- Complex, business-critical programmes rather than routine data work
- Varied client work across industries and migration scenarios
- Strong investment in development, including support toward certifications
- A collaborative culture with real focus on developing colleagues
