✨ AI Summary
The Enterprise Resource Planning Section Head role focuses on ensuring the SAP landscape is correct, clean, and reliable. This involves taking direct authority over platform configuration, unwinding misconfigurations, establishing master data governance, and overseeing implementation and re-configuration efforts. The role also includes day-to-day system management across finance, procurement, project, and inventory processes, demanding transaction integrity and operational discipline.
Candidates must have over 12 years of SAP experience, specifically with hands-on S/4HANA configuration and at least one full implementation. A strong working command of finance, controlling, materials, procurement, and project systems is required, along with a track record in building or rescuing master data and transaction integrity. The ability to lead a technical team and confidently direct implementation partners is crucial. A relevant degree is a must, and an SAP certification is highly advantageous. Experience with SAP in construction, engineering, or other large project-based businesses is a plus.

Description
You have lived inside SAP for more than a decade, and you want a system you can take ownership of rather than supervise from a distance. You read a configuration and know what's sound and what's been mis-built; you've cleaned master data that others let decay; and you've stood across the table from an implementation partner and refused work that didn't meet the standard. You lead a small specialist team without losing your own hands-on edge, and you can make a thorny SAP reality intelligible to a finance or procurement head who doesn't care how it works, only that it does. The work is to make our SAP landscape correct, clean, and reliable — then keep it that way. In practice that means taking direct authority over how the platform is configured and unwinding what has been set up wrong; establishing master data structure, ownership, and the governance that stops it from sliding back; driving the working-level delivery of implementation and re-configuration efforts and personally validating what the partner hands over; and running the system day to day across finance, procurement, project, and inventory processes for a large user base — transaction integrity, issue triage, change control, and the steady operational discipline a system of record demands. You set the technical standard for the section and hold it.
