Department Overview:

Building a World-Class, Diverse and Inclusive Data Management Team

We can't afford to be boring. Neither can you. The scale and scope of what TD does may surprise you. The rapid pace of change makes it a business imperative for us to be smart and open-minded in the way we think about data. TD's technology and business teams become more intertwined as new opportunities present themselves. This new era in banking does not equal boring. Not at TD, anyway.

TD has redefined its vision and data strategy to become a data driven organization through improving discoverability, understanding, trust, and accessibility of data. By maintaining high-quality data and implementing standardized data management practices, we can drive innovation, improve operational efficiency, and better serve our customers while minimizing risks.

The Enterprise Data Management Office (EDMO) establishes the data management standards and capabilities for all of TD, designs and implements data management tooling capabilities, monitors and reports on the adoption and consistent implementation of data management across TD Business Segments and Corporate Functions.

There's room to grow in all of it.
