Enterprise Information Architect (f/m/d)

Enterprise Data Architect (F/M/D)

Help shape how master data enables a global business. Ready to turn deep SAP MDG expertise into scalable solutions and share your knowledge with others? Want to influence data quality and transformation across Essity? Join us and make your expertise count.

About the Role

As an Enterprise Data Architect within Data Management Solutions, you will help shape and continuously improve Essity’s approach to Master Data Governance (MDG), supporting master data domains across our global sites.

This is an architecture-focused role where your SAP MDG expertise will make an impact beyond hands-on development. You will translate business needs into scalable solutions, create functional specifications, guide implementation, and act as a trusted expert for colleagues and stakeholders. You will also contribute to data migration, data quality and the MDG roadmap while helping less-experienced colleagues grow through coaching and knowledge sharing.

What You Will Do

• SAP MDG Architecture: Design and continuously improve SAP Master Data Governance solutions across domains including Business Partner, Customer, Vendor, Material and Finance data.
• Data Replication: Design replication workflows and integrations to receiving systems and their monitoring.
• Solution Design: Translate business requirements into functional specifications, scalable master data models, governance processes, workflows, and validation rules.
• Project Partnership: Participate in project discussions to determine MDG requirements and provide expert guidance to project teams and business stakeholders.
• Data Migration: Support master data migration activities for SAP S/4HANA deployments and business transformation programs, including mapping, validation, and cutover readiness.
• Data Quality: Contribute to data profiling, cleansing, deduplication, monitoring, and root-cause analysis to improve master data quality.
• Knowledge Sharing: Coach and mentor colleagues, sharing your SAP MDG expertise and guiding others in the delivery of solutions.
• MDG Roadmap: Help shape the SAP MDG roadmap and collaborate with business data teams on emerging requirements and issues.

Who You Are

• You hold a bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, Information Systems, Engineering, Data Management, or a related field; relevant SAP MDG, SAP S/4HANA or Data Governance certifications are an advantage.
• You bring substantial experience in SAP Master Data Management, SAP MDG, Data Governance, Information Management or SAP Enterprise Architecture, with proven exposure to MDG implementations, rollouts, or support. We particularly value the depth and complexity of your experience rather than years alone.
• You have strong SAP MDG expertise and understand its data models. Experience with complex master data domains such as Business Partner or Material, data replication, migration, cleansing, and deduplication is particularly relevant.
• You communicate effectively with different stakeholders, can turn technical complexity into clear guidance, and enjoy sharing expertise through coaching and mentoring in an international environment.
• You have good English communication skills, enabling you to collaborate effectively across Essity’s global organization. All Applicants are requested to deliver their CV in English language.
