You will be responsible for driving and coordinating multiple master data products and teams, ensuring alignment across priorities, roadmaps, and deliveries. This includes leading the transition from legacy systems to a new Profisee-based solution, as well as supporting future migrations as the platform evolves.

This is a newly established role within a new global setup. A core part of your responsibility will be to help build and scale a dedicated cross‑functional team with colleagues in Sweden and India, while defining the ways of working, priorities, and roadmap for this area.

• Oversee the transition from legacy master data solutions into a scalable global platform
• Ensure data quality, governance, and information architecture are continuously improved across systems
• Act as key coordination point between business stakeholders and development teams to ensure alignment and delivery

You have a proven track record in product ownership, data management or related fields, and thrive in dynamic, international environments. Your leadership skills enable you to build and inspire cross‑functional teams. Last but especially not least, you are comfortable working with colleagues across different cultures and time zones, particularly in Sweden and India.

You possess strong analytical and problem‑solving abilities, with a keen eye for detail and a commitment to data quality and governance. You are adept at translating complex business requirements into clear, actionable work items and can communicate effectively with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders. Your proactive approach and drive for continuous improvement help you navigate change, manage transitions from legacy systems and deliver innovative solutions that support business growth.
