Pepkor Lifestyle Offers a Permanent Master Data Administrator Role
Pepkor Lifestyle is recruiting a master data administrator for a permanent position in Sandton, Gauteng. Applications close on 30 November 2026. The vacancy was posted on 27 October.
Who the role suits
The employer lists a relevant bachelor’s degree, proven data-administration experience and knowledge of master-data systems, governance, mapping, profiling and privacy. This is not advertised as an internship or a no-experience position. Read the full specification, including its certification requirements, before applying.
What the work involves
Responsibilities include maintaining product and vendor data, checking accuracy, resolving inconsistent records and supporting migration and integration work. The role works across merchandise business processes and contributes to controlled, reliable data. No salary amount is published.
Build an evidence-led application
Build your CV around examples of maintaining reliable business data. Identify the systems you actually used, the kinds of records you worked with and your role in checking changes. A clear explanation of how you investigated duplicate or inconsistent entries is more useful than a list of software names without context.
Think through one example involving a data-quality problem: what was wrong, how you checked the source, who authorised a correction and how you confirmed the result. Use an anonymised description. Never attach a customer, supplier or employer database to demonstrate your skills.
Differentiate spreadsheet experience from experience with a master-data management platform. Both may be relevant, but they are not interchangeable. If you helped with a migration, explain whether you mapped fields, checked records, investigated exceptions or supported another stage. Avoid implying that you designed a system if you only used it.
How to apply
- Open the official vacancy below.
- Read the complete advert and select its application control.
- Enter accurate personal and employment information and attach a legible CV.
- Review the completed application before submitting it through the employer’s platform.
Read the official vacancy and apply
Before submitting
Use a current telephone number and an email address you check regularly. Make document filenames clear, open the files once more before uploading, and retain your own copy of the submitted material. Do not send sensitive documents to contacts that are not part of the official recruitment process.
Frequently asked questions
Does applying guarantee an interview?
No. Submission only places your application into the employer’s selection process. Continue considering other suitable roles while waiting for an outcome.
Can I invent a skill because I expect to learn it later?
No. Explain your present level honestly. Distinguish between software you have used at work, academic exposure and a skill you are currently learning.
What if the application page stops working?
Return to the employer’s official careers page to check whether the vacancy is still available. Do not use an unofficial replacement form or assume that an old advert guarantees ongoing availability.

Prepare for a discussion about data controls
If you are invited to interview, be ready to explain how you distinguish a suspected error from a confirmed error. Describe the checks you would make against an authorised source and how you would document a proposed change. A good example should show careful judgement, not simply the speed with which you can edit a spreadsheet.
Keep a private record of the vacancy reference and your submitted CV. That record can help you answer consistently if the employer asks about a particular project or qualification later. These are independent preparation suggestions, not additional requirements imposed by Pepkor.
