Your role

Our organization is recruiting an experienced and motivated SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud Cross- Functional Generalist In-House Expert to join our SAP IT department. Having successfully gone live on SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud in 2022, we are now focused on maximizing the value of our investment through system optimization, continuous improvement, and the adoption of new platform capabilities.

The successful candidate is a broad SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud generalist, capable of operating across multiple process domains within our SAP landscape. While the role carries a primary focus on the Customer Delivery (CD) Professional Services scope - covering Timesheet Management, Billing, and Revenue Recognition - the person is expected to support and engage across other process areas as needed, working alongside other in-house experts and bridging cross-functional gaps. The role works in close and structured partnership with the relevant Process Owners on the business side - while process design, process analysis, and data ownership remain firmly within the remit of the Process Owners, this role is responsible for translating business and process requirements into robust, well-configured SAP system solutions.

Your responsilities

• Manage and resolve incidents and system issues across assigned scope areas in a timely and structured manner, ensuring minimal business disruption
• Monitor and maintain system integrity and data consistency across all relevant modules and integrations, including those that span multiple process domains
• Coordinate and lead testing activities (unit testing, integration testing, UAT) for system changes, enhancements, and quarterly SAP Public Cloud release updates across the relevant scope
• Act as the dedicated IT counterpart to the CD Professional Services Process Owners, while also maintaining effective working relationships with Process Owners across other domains
• Receive, challenge where appropriate, and translate business and process requirements provided by Process Owners into effective SAP system configurations and solutions
• Proactively advise Process Owners on system capabilities, constraints, and opportunities within the SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud platform
• Support Process Owners in evaluating new SAP functionalities delivered through quarterly release cycles, providing technical assessment and implementation coordination where agreed
• Ensure all system changes are fully aligned with process decisions and data rules defined by the Process Owners prior to implementation
• Identify and propose system-driven improvements and automation opportunities within the live SAP environment, in close collaboration with the relevant Process Owners
• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of the SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud roadmap across relevant domains and proactively bring innovations to the attention of Process Owners and IT management
• Ensure all system configurations comply with internal controls, audit requirements, and applicable regulatory standards (IFRS 15, local GAAP, and SOX where applicable)
• Support internal and external audits by providing accurate system documentation, configuration records, and evidence of IT controls
• Collaborate with Process Owners to ensure that process controls are accurately reflected and enforced within the SAP system
• Work closely with other SAP in-house experts (e.g., R2R, P2P, Treasury) to ensure end-to-end process coherence and to manage cross-functional dependencies and integration points effectively
