We are seeking a Delivery Manager with deep data experience to support execution across data, analytics, & AI activities for our SAP S/4 transformation programme which is migrating my client’s business onto SAP/S4 on their RISE platform.

Driving alignment of roadmap, tools, & structures between the developing data platform & governance & the programme delivery is a key dependency to manage. The role is directly hands on & delivery focused, directly responsible for coordinating work, driving actions, resolving dependencies, & ensuring agreed data outcomes are delivered across business & technology teams.  The role is suited to an experienced delivery lead who understands SAP & data programmes, is comfortable operating across multiple workstreams in the delivery as well as business stakeholder alignment & can act as the integrator between teams with credibility in domain knowledge & the ability to influence outcomes.
