Acting as a "mini project manager" for SAP infrastructure initiatives, the Senior Delivery Manager drives activities from planning through implementation while maintaining focus on risk mitigation, operational stability, and customer commitments.

This position requires a proactive leader with a strong sense of ownership, excellent coordination skills, and the ability to bridge technical and business discussions.

• Act as the primary coordination point between technical teams.
• Challenge and validate implementation plans, risks, dependencies, and fallback procedures.
• Facilitate technical discussions and ensure alignment across delivery towers.
• Translate technical impacts into business-relevant information for stakeholders.
• Support architecture and engineering teams during planning and execution phases.

Stakeholder Management

• Build trusted relationships with customer representatives and internal delivery teams.
• Work closely with the Hybrid Cloud Delivery Manager on customer priorities and delivery commitments.
• Provide status reporting, risk communication, and executive updates.
• Drive alignment between project teams, operations teams, and infrastructure specialists.
• Manage supplier and partner dependencies where required.

Service Window Leadership

• Lead planning and execution preparation for SAP service windows.
• Ensure activities are optimized and bundled where possible.

• Experience operating in outsourced or managed service environments.
• Practical understanding of enterprise infrastructure components including Windows, Linux and AIX operating systems, virtualization platforms, storage, backup solutions, databases, networking and security concepts.
