PMC Abingdon, Oxfordshire (on-site), full-time, 6-month temporary contract with possible extension, day rate £250-£350 pd depending on experience

When the numbers don’t add up, do you need to know why?

PMC is an independent global leader in commerce technology. Some of the best-known brands rely on us to keep their operations running, around the clock. From consulting and engineering to 24/7 managed services, we build and run the technology behind how they sell.

We’re looking for a curious, detail-driven Data Administrator to join our Graphene team on a temporary basis. You’ll be the person who makes sure the data behind one of our key retail customers is accurate and trustworthy.

This data drives the customer’s day-to-day retail operations. If it’s wrong, their business feels it. Your job is to make sure it’s right.

What you’ll do

• Review our key retail customer’s data and check it for accuracy and consistency.
• Spot errors, gaps and anomalies, and flag them quickly.
• Question the data. If something looks odd, find out why.
• Dig into root causes, not just symptoms, so problems don’t come back.
• Work with the Graphene team and the customer’s team to correct issues and confirm fixes.
• Keep clear records of what you’ve found, what’s changed and why.
• Help keep the data sound, trusted and ready to use.

Requirements

What we’re looking for

You don’t need previous experience. We care more about how you think.

• Research, analytical or problem-solving skills, whether gained through study, work or other experience.
• Naturally inquisitive. You ask “why?” and keep going until you have the answer.
• Sharp attention to detail and a genuine care for getting things right.
• Comfortable working with spreadsheets and large sets of information.
• Clear communicator, confident asking questions and explaining what you’ve found.
• Organised, methodical and able to manage your own workload.

Nice to have

• Advanced Excel skills (e.g. lookups, pivot tables, filtering).
• An interest in retail, data or technology.

What you’ll get

• A behind-the-scenes view of how data keeps a major retailer running.
• An experienced team who’ll back you, answer your questions and help you learn fast.
• Real, CV-worthy experience to start or grow a career in data, analytics or retail technology
