Data Manager – Commercial, Sales And Product (selling Data)

Data Manager – Commercial, Sales and Product (Selling Data)

The Data Manager owns the end-to-end definition, quality, and governance of commercial, sales, and product data used for selling. The role ensures that data is trusted, consistent, and fit for purpose across systems, reporting, and decision-making. This is a hands-on ownership role, accountable for data standards, lifecycle, and outcomes, working across functions rather than leading a team.

Your future responsibilities:

• Own data definitions, hierarchies, attributes, and usage standards across the data lifecycle.
• Ensure data is consistently applied across source systems, reporting, and downstream consumers.
• Define and enforce data quality standards, controls, and validation rules.
• Proactively identify, prioritise, and resolve data quality issues and root causes.
• Maintain documentation for data definitions, rules, and ownership.
• Partner with data governance forums to ensure alignment to enterprise standards.
• Ensure data supports core selling motions including pipeline, bookings, pricing, product eligibility, and performance reporting.
• Work closely with sales operations, commercial, product, and finance teams to align data to business needs.
• Support new product launches, pricing changes, and go to market updates through data readiness.
• Oversee how commercial, sales, and product data flows across CRM, ERP, pricing, and reporting platforms.
• Partner with technology and data engineering teams to define requirements and prioritise fixes or enhancements.
• Validate that changes to systems or processes do not compromise data integrity.
• Ensure that reports, dashboards, and KPIs are underpinned by consistent, trusted data.
• Act as the point of escalation for data definition or metric disputes.
• Enable analysts and reporting teams with clear, governed datasets.
• Identify opportunities to simplify data structures, reduce manual effort, and improve scalability.
• Drive improvements in data processes, controls, and ways of working.
• Support transformation initiatives by embedding strong data foundations.
