This role requires adaptability, attention to detail, and the ability to support both operational activities and project-based initiatives within a dynamic, global environment.

• Support the creation and maintenance of Customer, Supplier, and Employee master data within Oracle during peak periods and critical business activities.

• Deliver short-term operational support for priority initiatives, including data cleansing, backlog management, and system migration activities.

• Maintain high standards of data quality, accuracy, and compliance with established governance frameworks and operational procedures.

• Contribute to achieving project milestones and operational objectives while supporting efficient resource utilization and continuous improvement initiatives.

• Ability to manage competing priorities, work effectively during peak periods, and collaborate with global stakeholders in a fast-paced environment.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to communicate and collaborate effectively across diverse, cross-cultural teams.

• Additional proficiency in Korean and/or Japanese is an advantage but not required, as it may support business communications, documentation, and system-related activities with stakeholders who use these languages.

Desired skills

• Good understanding of data governance principles, compliance requirements, and operational controls.
