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.
Apply or message directly for a quick conversation.
