About the role:

Join Redcare Pharmacy’s Data & AI Governance team as a Senior Master Data Management Lead to build a scalable, business-owned operating model for master data management (MDM) and data quality (DQ) across key data domains such as vendor, customer, and product data. This is a high-impact opportunity to shape a governed data foundation, demonstrate measurable business value, and create the basis for trustworthy data products and processes across the organization.

About the tech stack:

You’ll work in a modern MDM and data governance landscape, including tools such as CluedIn or Profisee, alongside Azure, Databricks, and Microsoft Purview, data products, and workflow-based stewardship and ownership processes.

Job Description

About your tasks:

• Shape Redcare’s MDM operating model, connecting different domains through continuous improvement, federated governance, and scalable MDM processes.
• Lead focused MDM initiatives from design to adoption, defining success criteria around data quality, stakeholder engagement, compliance with applicable laws and policies, and architectural fit.
• Lead cross-functional delivery for MDM, from integration initiatives with Data Architecture and Data Engineering teams to alignment with business stakeholders, data owners, and data stewards.
• Design the governed golden record layer, translating business processes into modern data management flows (e.g. matching and merging records, handling exceptions, and defining confidence thresholds) with a strong focus on automation and human-in-the-loop validation.
• Establish recurring data quality management around critical data elements, from profiling, DQ benchmarking, and data cleansing to issue management, remediation workflows, dashboards and KPIs that make progress visible.

Qualifications

About you:

• You bring senior hands-on experience building MDM operating models in complex, cross-functional environments.
• You have implemented or configured at least one MDM platform such as CluedIn, Profisee, Informatica MDM, and you understand how data models, business-driven data quality rules, automation workflows, and stewardship queues work in practice.
• You care about making governance real: you can influence senior business owners, resolve ownership conflicts, guide stewards, and keep GDPR, data protection, access controls, and auditability in focus.
• Hands-on experience with the Microsoft data ecosystem (including Azure Databricks, Purview, Fabric, and Entra) is a strong plus, and experience with procurement, finance, and customer data is also appreciated.
