We're looking for an experienced SAP Project Manager to lead a major SAP migration programme, supporting the transition of an existing SAP Simple Finance (SFin 1503) landscape from on-premise infrastructure to SAP RISE Private Cloud Edition (PCE). This is a true lift-and-shift migration, focused on moving the existing SAP estate with minimal disruption while preserving current configurations, functionality and operational processes. There are no upgrades or system conversions as part of this programme, making strong delivery, governance and stakeholder management essential.
The Role
You'll take ownership of the end-to-end project delivery, working alongside SAP's own consulting and project management teams to ensure the successful migration through each phase of the programme. The migration will be delivered across four key iterations:
- Proof of Concept
- Development
- Quality Assurance
- Production
You'll coordinate internal stakeholders, third-party suppliers and SAP delivery teams, ensuring milestones, risks, dependencies and governance are managed throughout.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the delivery of an SAP S/4HANA migration to SAP RISE (Private Cloud Edition)
- Manage project plans, timelines, budgets, risks and dependencies
- Coordinate SAP, internal business teams and third-party delivery partners
- Drive governance, reporting and stakeholder communications
- Ensure successful execution across all migration phases
- Support programme planning, change management and issue resolution
- Oversee delivery of SAP Platform Execution (PEX) Migration work packages
Essential Experience
- Proven experience delivering SAP migration or transformation programmes
- Strong background managing SAP S/4HANA, SAP ECC or SAP Finance projects
- Experience working with SAP RISE or cloud migration programmes is highly desirable
- Excellent stakeholder management across business and technical teams
- Strong governance, RAID management and programme reporting experience
- Experience working alongside SAP consulting and delivery teams
Technical Environment
- SAP Simple Finance (SFin 1503)
- SAP HANA 2.0
- SAP RISE Private Cloud Edition (PCE)
