Lead the functional implementation of the IT solution in collaboration with the IT application consultants and developers, while executing hands‑on the functional system configuration and testing.

Transparently share the configuration, development, and test progress with stakeholders. Proactively communicate on issues, risks, and scope changes, and suggest suitable mitigating actions.

Develop training materials and workshops to educate cross‑functional teams on WMS capabilities, standardization policies, and best practices.

Mentor junior IT Solution Managers and Application Consultants, fostering expertise in WMS configuration, requirements elicitation, and stakeholder management.

Conduct post‑implementation reviews to assess solution performance, user adoption, and operational efficiency, identifying opportunities for process refinement or additional training.

Qualifications & Experience

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Business Administration, Supply Chain Management, or a related field.

Expertise in designing and improving logistics warehouse processes.

Proven experience in designing and implementing WMS solutions for mid‑to‑large‑scale, multi‑site operations, including integration with ERP, TMS, and automation systems.

Experience in IT solution management, WMS process configuration and testing.

Pragmatic mindset with a focus on real‑world solutions

Proficiency in business process modeling, requirements management tools, and Agile / Waterfall project frameworks.

Strong understanding of logistics KPIs (e.g., order accuracy, inventory turnover) and their translation into system configurations.

Strategic Influence: Ability to persuade stakeholders to adopt standardized solutions while addressing unique customer needs.

Analytical Rigor: Expertise in root‑cause analysis, gap assessment, and cost‑benefit modeling for IT solutions.

Stakeholder Management: Skilled in managing relationships with senior leadership, operations teams, and external clients.
