In addition, you will assist in quality checks and maintenance on all database entities, including clubs, venues, players and more.
- You will make sure our sports calendars are up-to-date: When does the next season of Major League Baseball start? When will the teams participating in the Ice Hockey World Cup announce their rosters?
- You are responsible for entering the correct league structures in our database. How do the play-offs work?
- You will ensure that club information is accurate at the start of the season. Have there been any changes to the name of the team or the venue they are playing in? Are all the logos still up-to-date?
- You will use our smart matching tools to process match schedules and team rosters.
- You will help coordinate daily checks on match schedules, results and standings.
- You will run quality checks on both competition-level and player-level data.

- Ready to work in a 24/7 operation, including evening and weekend shifts.
- Inquisitive and learning attitude.
- Logical thought process.
- You have excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
- You have excellent computing and keyboarding skills. While you will become an expert in our specialized data entry applications, we do expect the basics to be in good shape. Good knowledge of Excel and Google Sheets is a bonus.
- You are a college graduate with ideally several years of experience working with (live) sportsdata.
- The role is hybrid, so you must live near Nielsen s Mumbai office. Work from home is possible if an adequate workplace for working with live sports is available.
