Who we are looking for:

A strategic, hands-on SAP Process Manager - Supply Chain to lead the design, standardization, and continuous improvement of end-to-end supply chain processes. This role will combine deep supply chain process expertise with SAP knowledge, strong project leadership, and change-management capability to deliver scalable solutions that improve operational performance and customer fulfillment.

The ideal candidate is a collaborative business-process leader who can translate operational needs into standardized, sustainable SAP-enabled processes across demand and supply planning, procurement, inventory management, and order fulfillment. They will work closely with supply chain leaders, plant and operational teams, IT, and technical resources to identify opportunities, define future-state processes, support implementation, and drive adoption.

The ideal candidate will possess strong executive communication skills and the ability to engage thoughtfully with operational teams to understand their needs. They must also be comfortable constructively challenging nonstandard processes and advocating for scalable, standardized solutions. A strong sense of ownership for the function, its processes, and successful outcomes is essential for this role.

What we are expecting from you:

• Lead the design, documentation, and standardization of supply chain business processes across planning, procurement, inventory, and customer fulfillment.
• Partner with business stakeholders to understand current-state challenges, define requirements, and translate them into practical, scalable SAP process solutions.
• Provide functional expertise in SAP process design and configuration, collaborating with technical teams to support enhancements, integrations, testing, and deployment.
• Develop process maps, standard work, training materials, and governance practices that enable consistent execution across teams and locations.
• Lead cross-functional initiatives and projects from problem definition through implementation, adoption, and performance measurement.
• Analyze process and operational data to identify bottlenecks, risks, waste, and improvement opportunities.
• Drive continuous improvement using Lean principles, root-cause analysis, and structured problem-solving methods.
• Facilitate stakeholder alignment and manage change effectively across operational teams, leadership, and technical resources.
• Support testing, user acceptance, cutover planning, and post-deployment stabilization for SAP-related process changes.
• Establish and track key performance indicators to measure process effectiveness, service performance, inventory health, and adoption of standard processes.

Preferred Qualifications Include:

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Supply Chain, Operations, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field required.
• 7-10+ years of progressive experience in supply chain, procurement, materials management, production planning, scheduling, inventory management, manufacturing operations, or ERP-enabled process leadership.
• Direct SAP or large-scale ERP implementation experience required; SAP S/4HANA implementation experience strongly preferred.
• Proven leadership of multi-site, cross-functional business process transformation or ERP/SAP deployment initiatives.
• Experience serving as a business process owner, functional lead, workstream lead, or deployment lead for supply chain and manufacturing processes, including procurement, demand planning, production scheduling, MRP, inventory, testing, cutover, go-live, and hypercare.
• Strong ability to influence senior leaders, resolve cross-functional issues, and drive decisions in a matrixed organization.
• Demonstrated change management, stakeholder engagement, facilitation, and executive communication skills.
• Ability to translate complex SAP and business process concepts into clear, actionable recommendations for technical and non-technical audiences.
• Experience leading cross-functional teams, site readiness teams, implementation teams, or super-user networks.
• Ability to travel 25%-50%, with increased travel during deployment, cutover, go-live, and hypercare periods.

With our wide range of technologies, including in the clean tech space, we help our customers solve their most complex engineering challenges by living our purpose: enabling engineering breakthroughs that lead to a better tomorrow.
