Job Description

Unleash your potential with a Data Solutions Specialist role that offers dynamic customer interaction and IT collaboration.

The Data Solutions Specialist manages our customers’ variable data for printed labeling. Price tags with details like prices, sizes, and bar codes serve as examples. We also handle care and content labels. We can print and send these to the customer or let them print on their own. This process involves extracting data from our clients' IT systems. We integrate this into Avery Dennison's software, which allows correct printing of variable data like prices and sizes on labels to print correctly on tags and labels. When the DataSolutions Specialist identifies an opportunity requiring variable data and/or online ordering, they directly engage with the customer to analyze their existing business data systems and technically map and integrate the customer's data into the Avery Dennison system/software.

Your Responsibilities:

• Serve as the main contact for retailers and brand owners, offering essential business and technical analysis for their development needs in variable data products and online ordering systems.

• Look into and solve problems for customers and production by using systems, talking to factories, and coordinating with different support groups.

• Lead calls with IT, Sales, Development, and Ops teams to ensure they understand and fulfill all requirements.

• Implement variable data programs and amendments on time across global locations using agreed tools, systems, and processes.

• Prepare a test plan and perform end-to-end testing to meet functional and data requirements, which may involve conducting the final User Acceptance Test (UAT) with the customer.

• Guide customers and sales teams on variable data products and backend systems. These enhance operations and improve the global trim supply chain. Additionally, join customer meetings to talk about and showcase these solutions.

Qualifications

• Strong interest in information technology solutions and data analysis.

• Basic understanding of IT programming would be beneficial, as this role works with IT Programmers.

• Proven ability to set up and maintain strong customer relationships

• Highly effective oral and written communication and presentation skills with both internal and external customers
