Senior MDM & Data Governance Specialist

We are looking for a hands-on Senior Specialist with deep expertise in Master Data Management (MDM) and Data Governance to drive and deliver organisational change across people, processes, and tooling.


This role is perfect for someone coming from a FMCG background who thrives in a fast-paced, delivery-focused environment and is confident presenting to board/C-level stakeholders.

Senior MDM & Data Governance Specialist
Location: United Kingdom & Europe
Industry: FMCG
Type: Contract
Salary: €750 - €800 per day

Key Responsibilities:
- Actively design, implement, and improve master data processes across operational and analytical use cases.

- Lead MDM tooling initiatives: selection, configuration, deployment, and optimisation.

- Build and embed Data Governance frameworks, policies, and standards across the business.

- Work directly with business and IT teams to execute master data strategies that align with organisational goals.

- Present data management strategies, project updates, and business value propositions directly to board/C-level executives.

- Bridge the gap between operational master data execution (day-to-day transactions) and analytical master data use (reporting, insights, business intelligence).

- Drive continuous improvement for data quality, ownership models, and stewardship practices.

Key Requirements:
- Strong experience leading and hands-on delivering MDM and Data Governance initiatives within FMCG.

- Clear understanding and practical application of both operational and analytical master data concepts.

- Direct experience presenting to and influencing board and C-level stakeholders.

Hands-on experience with leading MDM platforms such as:

- Solid knowledge of how MDM and governance fit within broader data and technology landscapes.
