Product Master Data Manager

Greenfield Talent, Hudson, OH, United States


Hudson, Ohio (100% Onsite)
Manufacturing | ERP | Item Master Data

Our client is seeking a

Product Master Data Manager

to own and safeguard the accuracy of product and item master data across our enterprise systems. This role is critical to ensuring manufacturing, supply chain, sales, and customers can operate without friction caused by inconsistent or unreliable data.

This is a

hands‑on, operational role

for someone who understands how product data flows through ERP and downstream systems — and how bad data quickly turns into bad decisions.

Why This Role Matters
When product master data is incorrect or inconsistent:

Manufacturing builds the wrong item

Supply chain orders incorrect materials

Marketing publishes inaccurate specifications

Sales and e‑commerce show conflicting information

Customers lose trust and returns increase

This role exists to prevent those problems before they happen.

What You’ll Do

Own the accuracy, completeness, and consistency of product and item master data across ERP, PIM, and catalog systems

Manage item setup, maintenance, and governance throughout the product lifecycle

Standardize attributes, units of measure (UOMs), identifiers, and hierarchies

Ensure clean data flow from

suppliers → ERP → downstream systems

(planning, reporting, sales, marketing)

Audit data for completeness and inconsistencies; proactively identify and correct issues

Track and report data quality KPIs using Excel and standard reporting tools

Partner closely with Manufacturing, Supply Chain, IT, Marketing, Sales, and suppliers

Translate business needs into clear data requirements (no coding required)

Influence data standards and adoption through collaboration rather than authority

What We’re Looking For

3–5 years

of experience managing product or item master data in a

manufacturing or distribution

environment

Hands‑on experience with:

ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, or similar)

Item master data governance and data quality controls

Strong understanding of:

Attribute standardization

Units of measure (UOM)

Identifiers and product hierarchies

Experience working across multiple systems and understanding data dependencies

Advanced

Excel and reporting

skills for auditing and tracking data health

Comfortable collaborating cross‑functionally and leading through influence

Detail‑oriented, disciplined, and accountable for data accuracy
