The Opportunity

Our client is undertaking a multi-year global SAP S/4HANA transformation program to modernize and replace its existing ERP platform.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the execution of a large-scale SAP S/4HANA implementation program.
• Establish and maintain project governance, delivery frameworks, reporting structures, and escalation processes.
• Drive accountability across internal business teams, system integrators, vendors, and external partners.
• Manage project scope, schedules, budgets, risks, issues, dependencies, and overall program health.
• Facilitate executive steering committee meetings and provide clear, concise updates to senior leadership.
• Ensure alignment across functional workstreams, business stakeholders, and implementation partners.
• Challenge assumptions, identify practical solutions, and proactively remove obstacles impacting delivery.
• Partner closely with the implementation vendor to ensure commitments are delivered while maintaining a collaborative relationship.
• Guide teams through ambiguity, changing priorities, and evolving business requirements.
• Champion a results-oriented delivery culture focused on execution and outcomes.
