Up to £300/day (Outside IR35)
Hybrid (3 days/week in London)
4-month contract
Immediate start
We're looking for a hands‑on Data Cleansing Analyst to support a major data migration programme within a fast‑paced commercial operations environment.
This is a high‑impact, delivery‑focused role working with large, complex catalogue and metadata datasets that must be cleaned, validated, and prepared for migration into a new enterprise system.
Strong Excel and data cleansing capability is essential; this role is not suitable for reporting or dashboard‑focused analysts.
What you'll be doing
- Cleanse, standardise, and validate large-scale datasets
- Ensure accuracy and consistency of catalogue and metadata across systems
- Support data migration, QA, and UAT testing activities
- Identify and resolve data inconsistencies across multiple platforms
- Produce exception reports and support data gap analysis
- Assist with go-live readiness and post‑implementation support
- This is a delivery-focused role where accuracy and speed directly impact system readiness.
What we're looking for
- Experience in data cleansing, data quality, or data operations roles
- Advanced Excel skills (complex formulas and large datasets essential)
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to data accuracy
- Experience working with high‑volume, structured datasets
- Ability to work independently on structured data tasks with minimal supervision
- Comfortable working to deadlines in a fast‑paced, task‑driven environment
- Strong communication skills across multiple stakeholders
Nice to have
- Experience in media, entertainment, or content/catalogue environments
- Exposure to data migration, system implementation, or transformation projects
- Familiarity with CRM or enterprise data platforms (e.g. Salesforce or similar large‑scale systems)
Why this role?
- Immediate-start, high‑urgency programme
- Long-established dataset (~25 years of legacy data)
- Real impact role where data quality directly drives system success
- Clear direction, focused delivery environment, minimal bureaucracy
Interested?
If you're a detail-driven Excel-heavy data contractor who enjoys working with complex datasets and delivering clean, structured outputs, we'd like to hear from you.
