Job Description

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Director of SAP S / 4HANA Transformations to lead enterprise‑scale digital initiatives across multiple clients and industries. As a senior leader, you will oversee multiple project portfolios, drive client success, and shape strategic transformation outcomes in collaboration with executive stakeholders.

You will lead a multidisciplinary team of program managers and consultants, ensuring operational excellence, profitable account growth, and long‑term client relationships. This is a highly strategic leadership position focused on governance, delivery excellence, and organizational transformation — not hands‑on configuration. However, the role also includes active involvement in project work and onboarding to ensure successful delivery and alignment with client needs.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead multi‑account portfolios encompassing ERP and digital transformation programs (SAP S / 4HANA, Oracle) across industries.
• Manage and mentor teams of 10+ professionals and multiple project managers, fostering a high‑performance, collaborative culture.
• Shape client transformation strategies, ensuring alignment with business goals and measurable value realization.
• Serve as executive sponsor in client steering committees and governance boards.
• Drive business development: identify new opportunities, expand accounts, and oversee proposal development and sales pipelines.
• Ensure delivery excellence — projects delivered on time, within scope, and within budget, with consistent client satisfaction.
• Oversee risk management, vendor coordination, and program governance across concurrent engagements.
• Collaborate closely with senior Kearney Activate leadership to integrate strategic advisory and technology delivery.

Qualifications & Experience

• 15 years of professional experience in IT consulting, ERP (SAP) transformation, or enterprise technology delivery.
• Proven leadership of multiple teams or business units, with responsibility for staffing, development, and client success.
• Demonstrated sales and account ownership experience, including P&L or revenue accountability.
• Strong expertise in ERP / digital transformation programs (especially SAP S / 4HANA).
• Experience engaging at C‑suite level and contributing to long‑term transformation roadmaps.
• Background in manufacturing, retail, telecom, or aerospace industries a plus.
• Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and strategic thinking skills.
• Advanced degree in IT, Business, or related field preferred.
• SAP, Scrum, PMP, or equivalent certification advantageous.
• Fluent in German with very good English proficiency.
