Job description

Hybrid work model – Nashville, TN (preferred), [other US hubs], Monterrey or Mexico City, MX | Travel: 25–50% Ready to help transform how a global leader in energy management buys, stores and delivers? Schneider Electric is running a large S/4HANA transformation across our North American manufacturing and distribution sites, with major rollouts starting in 2027. We're adding an SAP MM Functional Lead to own procure-to-pay and inventory management, help deliver site go-lives and act as the link between our business teams and our global delivery team. This role is for an experienced SAP MM professional who has been through several go-lives and can contribute from day one.

What will you do?

Lead the SAP MM workstream in our S/4HANA program. You'll report to the Technical Product Manager for Planning, Procurement & Manufacturing and work day to day with Technical Product Owners.
Design, configure and optimize procure-to-pay processes: purchase requisitions, RFQs and purchase orders (standard, subcontracting, consignment, STO), contracts, scheduling agreements, release strategies and flexible workflows.
Own inventory management: goods receipts and issues, transfer postings, reservations, physical inventory, material valuation, split valuation and account determination.
Connect planning to purchasing: turn MRP proposals into POs and schedule lines, and optimize lot sizes, safety stock and lead times so production has what it needs.
Act as the onshore link with our global delivery team in Bangalore: lead business discussions with plants and distribution centers, capture actions and requirements, configure in the system and hand work off for offshore execution.
Ensure smooth integration between MM and PP, FI/CO, SD, QM and EWM/WM, and understand how S/4HANA decisions affect external platforms (SAP Ariba, Coupa, supplier EDI, 3PL, SAP MDG).
Drive testing: take part in integration and quality testing, usually about two months before go-live. You'll work with business analysts and product owners, train users and resolve issues quickly.
Deliver site deployments end to end: data migration, cutover, on-site go-live support and hypercare, typically covering 2–3 site deployments.
Standardize, govern and automate procurement and inventory processes across sites using SAP best practices, design reviews and automation.
Work in Agile/SAFe teams with Product Owners and business stakeholders to prioritize the roadmap, define requirements and drive adoption.
