## Description

Procurement Data & Catalogue Specialist (Excel Power User)

📍 Business Bay, Dubai | 2-month contract (likely extension) | Mon–Fri, office-based

Do you get more excited about a clean XLOOKUP than a coffee break?

If you're the person who turns 10,000 messy rows into one tidy, trusted catalogue, and you like doing it, we'd like to hear from you. Our client, a leading F&B distributor in the region, needs a hands-on data specialist to help build and maintain their procurement catalogues in Oracle Fusion.

What you'll be doing

• Building, cleansing and maintaining procurement catalogues and item master data (descriptions, categories, UOMs, pricing, attributes)

• Using Excel to find duplicates, gaps and inconsistencies before they reach the system

• Turning supplier price lists, which come in every format imaginable, into clean upload-ready templates

• Reconciling catalogue pricing against contracts, BPAs and pricing schedules

• Preparing bulk uploads and validation reports for Oracle Fusion / SSP

• Working with suppliers and internal teams to fill data gaps and keep catalogues up to date

• Setting up repeatable checks and trackers so the next update is quicker than the last

Your Excel toolkit (the core of this role)

• Must have: XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, INDEX-MATCH, Pivot Tables, conditional formatting, data validation, text functions (TRIM, CLEAN, LEFT/MID, TEXTSPLIT)

• Strong plus: Power Query for merging and transforming supplier files, dynamic arrays (FILTER, UNIQUE, SORT), COUNTIFS/SUMIFS for audit checks

• Bonus: Macros/VBA, Power Pivot, or dashboards that make data quality visible

What else you bring

• Hands-on catalogue or master data experience in Oracle Fusion Procurement and/or SAP Ariba

• A good understanding of Procure-to-Pay (P2P) processes and category/taxonomy structures

• Experience with hosted and punchout catalogues is preferred

• Strong attention to detail: you spot a wrong UOM straight away

• Clear communication with suppliers and stakeholders

• Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain, Procurement, Business, IT or a related field

Quick self-check

• Have you cleaned a supplier file with more than 5,000 lines in under an hour? ✔

• Do you check for duplicates before anyone asks you to? ✔

• Does a well-built pivot table make you a little happy? ✔

If you ticked all three, this role is for you.

The details

• AED 7,000/month (fixed)

• 2-month contract, likely to be extended

• Valid UAE residence visa, NOC and medical insurance required
