The role manages product data, pricing and manufacturer details across hardware, software and accessories, sets up new products introduced through the NPI pipeline, and governs the lifecycle of each catalogue item from introduction through to End-of-Sale and End-of-Purchase retirement. Because a clean catalogue drives correct ordering and pricing across the whole operation, errors here ripple straight into POs, three-way matching and spend reporting.The analyst validates supplier pricing on a fixed cadence, runs bulk master-data uploads, configures regional storefront visibility, and builds the Base-and-Variant item hierarchy needed to transact new products in each region. The role reports to the Procurement & Asset Team Lead and partners closely with Supplier & Vendor Management, the NPI/engineering teams and the SAM team to keep product and master data consistent. As the incumbent, Astreya can build on established catalogue and supplier data to drive accuracy and cycle-time outcomes.**KEY RESPONSIBILITIES**1.
