We are looking for an experienced SAP Manager – Centre of Excellence (COE) to lead and evolve a global SAP landscape for a multinational pharmaceutical organisation. This role sits at the heart of SAP strategy, governance, and innovation, ensuring consistency, scalability, and best practices across SAP S/4HANA platforms and business units.

If you’re passionate about shaping SAP standards, driving continuous improvement, and acting as the bridge between business and technology in a regulated, high-impact environment, this is a standout opportunity.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and develop the SAP Centre of Excellence, defining standards, governance models, and best practices across SAP S/4HANA.
• Act as the strategic owner for core SAP modules (FI, CO, MM, SD, PP, QM), ensuring alignment with business objectives.
• Provide oversight and guidance across SAP programs and projects, supporting both global and local initiatives.
• Drive continuous improvement, optimisation, and innovation within the SAP landscape.
• Govern system integrations, interfaces, and dependencies across multiple platforms.
• Collaborate closely with business stakeholders, IT teams, and external partners to ensure consistent delivery and value realisation.
• Oversee data governance, data quality, and lifecycle management.
• Ensure compliance with pharmaceutical regulations and internal quality standards.
• Support change management, capability building, and knowledge transfer across SAP teams.

Why Join?

• Play a key role in shaping and governing a global SAP S/4HANA landscape.
• Influence long-term SAP strategy rather than focusing solely on single-project delivery.
• Work at the forefront of digital transformation in the pharmaceutical industry.
• Join a collaborative, international team with strong growth and development opportunities.
