A Snapshot of Your Day

To ensure business continuity and support the upcoming S4E Unify rollouts within the Siemens Energy ERP Competence Centre, this senior‑level role is established to drive internal ownership and operational stability across our expanding live business units. This position is critical to transitioning new rollouts into a scalable, predictable, and high‑quality support model that aligns with our global digital process transformation strategy. To address these strategic business aims, the role focuses on three core areas: S4 FICO architectural design and governance, end‑to‑end incident and problem management, and cross‑functional demand coordination with internal and external stakeholders. These focus areas will directly ensure service performance and establish robust operational governance across the ERP landscape. Given the focus on S4 FICO architecture and operational governance, the ideal candidate will possess extensive experience in SAP FICO implementations, a strong background in IT service management (ITIL), and proven capability in managing complex stakeholder environments within global matrix organizations.

How You’ll Make An Impact

• Drive incident and problem management processes for live business units to ensure rapid resolution and minimal business disruption.


• Establish and monitor service performance metrics (KPIs/SLAs) to guarantee high-quality operational support.


• Lead root-cause analysis for critical FICO system issues and implement permanent preventive solutions.


• Coordinate and prioritize business demands for FICO enhancements, balancing business value with template integrity.


• Manage operational governance forums and facilitate regular alignment meetings with internal business partners and external service providers.


• Steer the transition of newly rolled-out business units from project phase into the steady-state operations model.

What You Bring

• University degree in Information Technology, Business Administration, Finance, or a closely related field.


• Several years of professional experience in SAP FICO consulting, architecture, or service management, preferably within a global corporate environment.


• Proven track record of participating in large-scale ERP rollouts (S/4HANA) and managing complex operational support models.


• In-depth knowledge of SAP S/4HANA Finance (FI) and Controlling (CO) modules and their integration points.


• Experience in SAP financial template governance, design authority, and system architecture.


• Proficiency in ITIL frameworks, incident management, problem management, and change enablement.


• Ability to manage service level agreements (SLAs) and drive external vendor performance.


• Experience with application lifecycle management tools (e.g., SAP Solution Manager, ServiceNow).


• Fluency in English (German is highly beneficial given the primary location in Germany).
