Job description

Job Overview:

We are looking for an experienced SAP Landscape & Cutover Lead to manage the coordination and governance of our SAP landscape across business-critical environments, ensuring systems are stable, secure and aligned with business and delivery needs.

Working across Basis, Security, Infrastructure, Enterprise Architecture, Project Delivery, Service Management and business teams, you will lead landscape planning, environment usage, system availability, refresh cycles, release alignment and technical change control. You will also chair SAP landscape, release, change and environment governance forums.

This role is key to ensuring the SAP landscape supports both operational needs and strategic transformation.

Responsibilities:

Own and maintain the SAP landscape strategy, including development, test, quality assurance, pre-production, training, sandbox, and production environments.

Lead SAP environment roadmap and ensures landscapes are available and fit for purpose for projects, releases, testing, upgrades, integrations, and business-as-usual support.

Coordinate landscape demand from projects, programmes, and operational teams, resolving conflicts around environment usage, system availability, freeze periods, and refresh schedules.

Maintain a clear view of SAP system dependencies, interfaces, data flows, and environment relationships. Ensure landscape decisions are aligned with enterprise architecture, security, compliance, operational resilience, and business continuity requirements.

Oversee the operational health of the SAP landscape to ensure service stability. Govern system availability, performance, capacity, technical risks, and recurring operational issues.

Coordinate technical readiness for SAP releases, upgrades, migrations, enhancement packages, support packs, kernel updates, and major project deployments.

Work with delivery teams to ensure development, test, and production environments are aligned to release and testing requirements. Lead environment freeze windows, transport routes, retrofit considerations, sequencing, and dependency impacts.

Support cutover planning and technical dress rehearsals for major SAP changes.

Ensure SAP landscape follows security, audit, regulatory, and internal control requirements. Work closely with SAP Security and GRC teams to ensure environment access, segregation of duties, privileged access, and sensitive data usage are appropriately governed.

Ensure non-production systems are in synch with data protection, masking, retention, and access control standards.

Act as the central point of coordination for SAP landscape matters across IT, business, project, and supplier teams. Provide clear communication on landscape availability, risks, constraints, dependencies, and planned changes.

Work with third-party vendors, service providers, and internal teams to ensure service levels are met.

Required Skills and Experience:

• 4 to 8 years of solid experience working in complex SAP environments, ideally across multiple SAP products and integrated systems. Should have led landscape demand across projects, programmes, and business-as-usual operations.
• Good understanding of SAP landscape architecture across production and non-prod environments.
• Experience coordinating SAP Basis, infrastructure, database, cloud, security, and application teams.
• Knowledge of SAP transport management, release cycles, system refreshes, client copies, upgrades, patching, and technical change control.
• Good understanding of IT service management processes, including change, release, problem and configuration management.
• Strong risk management, governance, planning, and documentation skills.

Nice To Have Skills and Experience:

• Experience with SAP S/4HANA, SAP PI/PO, SAP BTP, SAP Solution Manager, SAP Cloud ALM, SAP GRC, SAP BW/Datasphere or SAP Enterprise Portal.
• Experience with cloud-hosted SAP landscapes, for example AWS, Google Cloud, RISE with SAP, or private cloud environments!
• Understanding of SAP security concepts, privileged access, role governance, SoD, and non-production data protection.
