    Job Description

    About the Role
    Our client is a national consumer goods company undergoing a large-scale SAP S/4HANA transformation as part of a broader enterprise modernization initiative. The program is supported by a central Program Management Office (PMO), a dedicated Program Manager, and multiple system integrators.
    To support execution, the organization is seeking experienced Project Managers to own and drive individual workstreams within the overall program. These Project Managers will be responsible for day-to-day delivery, coordination, and risk management while partnering closely with the Program Manager and functional stakeholders.
    This role is ideal for Project Managers who are confident managing tasks, timelines, dependencies, and risks, and who can operate effectively within a complex, multi-vendor SAP environment.

    Key Responsibilities
    • Own and manage one or more workstreams within the SAP S/4HANA program
    • Develop and maintain detailed project plans, schedules, milestones, and dependencies
    • Coordinate activities across functional teams, system integrators, and internal stakeholders
    • Identify risks, issues, and dependencies early and escalate appropriately to the Program Manager
    • Track progress against plan and ensure deliverables are completed on time and within scope
    • Facilitate workstream meetings, status updates, and action item tracking
    • Ensure alignment with overall program governance, methodology, and cadence
    • Support integration points across other SAP workstreams and related initiatives
    • Maintain project documentation, RAID logs, and reporting artifacts
    • Operate effectively in a structured SAP program environment while remaining adaptable to change

    Required Qualifications
    • 5+ years of Project Management experience, preferably within large, complex programs
    • Prior experience supporting SAP implementations or ERP transformations (S/4HANA preferred, ECC acceptable)
    • Strong understanding of project management fundamentals, including:
      • Task and dependency management
      • Risk and issue identification
      • Stakeholder communication
      • Escalation and governance
    • Experience working with multiple vendors or system integrators
    • Ability to operate confidently without being the SAP functional expert
    • Strong organizational, communication, and documentation skills
    • Comfortable working remotely with distributed teams

    Preferred (Not Required)
    • Familiarity with SAP RISE methodology
    • Exposure to PMO-led or transformation-scale programs
    • PMP, Agile, or similar project management certifications

    What This Role Is / Is Not
    This role is:
    • A hands-on delivery-focused Project Manager
    • Responsible for executing a defined scope within a larger program
    • Focused on coordination, execution, and risk management
    This role is not:
    • A Program Manager role
    • An SAP functional or technical SME role
    • A pure reporting or administrative PM role

    Why This Opportunity
    • Long-term 12–24 month engagement on a high-visibility transformation
    • Work within a well-structured SAP S/4HANA program
    • Remote flexibility
    • Opportunity to gain deep experience in enterprise-scale ERP transformation
