About The Position

The Brand & Supplier Data Specialist will play a crucial role in building toward 95% automated product encoding, enabling thousands of products to go live in days rather than months. This role is essential for ensuring the data and rules feeding the automation program are clean and accurate. The specialist will own the input of brand and supplier data, brand rules, and the quality control of the output from the encoding process. This position is part of the Product team, reporting to the Head of Product and working closely with the Catalogue Owner. The role can be offered as a permanent position or a 6-month contract (freelance or fixed-term) with the possibility of conversion to permanent.

Experience managing an outsourced team or vendor against quality criteria, including holding the line when batches fall short.

Responsibilities

Onboard brands by creating an encoding schema for each brand's catalogue, price list, variants, and surcharges, designed for reuse.
Draft brand-specific rules for automation engineers and contribute to shaping the overall encoding standard.
Manage the day-to-day relationship with the encoding partner, including priorities, workload, and follow-up for new, vintage, and second-hand products.
Act as the quality gate, accepting or rejecting batches against the encoding standard without escalation, unless the standard does not cover a case.
Manage the intake request channel from Sales, Ops, and Marketing, defining required information, turnaround times, and triaging requests.
Move requests that do not meet agreed urgency criteria into the normal queue.
Maintain clean supplier data in Odoo, including completing vendor records (contacts, VAT, discounts, lead times, supplier references).
Maintain the Brand Master List and the consolidated product list.
Chase tech for encoding items that are stuck, check translations, handle routine corrections, and generate SKUs for logistics until Odoo automates this process.
Ensure the defect rate at acceptance on brand batches and the time from request to product live meet targets.
