The challenge

As a Master Data Expert, you will make sure that our data are reliable and up to date, so that all business operations can run smoothly. You will manage and control master data in our systems, process price updates from suppliers, and create new article numbers to support organised article management.

You will also support a small, specialised team focused on fall protection. You will assist this team of two colleagues with various administrative tasks, such as placing internal orders, preparing reports, managing maintenance records, and reserving equipment for projects. These support tasks will take about 30% of your time.
