Job description

Senior Project Manager - Business-Led SAP S/4HANA Implementation

About the role

We are looking for a senior project/programme manager to lead the next phase of a SAP S/4HANA implementation within a complex industrial operation. The core platform for finance and procurement is already in place - this phase is about designing and implementing the business processes and procedures that will support future industrial operations.

This is a business-led implementation programme. You will design the business processes from the ground up and make sure they are effectively implemented in SAP and connected digital systems. The role is leadership-oriented and business-facing rather than purely technical - the emphasis is on driving process design, coordination and alignment, not on deep SAP specialist expertise.

Scope

The initial focus is the end-to-end Order-to-Cash process:

• Sales and order management

• Product costing

• Logistics and delivery

• Commercial processes

• Invoicing and settlement

The role also covers related processes:

• Procurement

• Material handling and inventory transactions

• Production-related processes

• Quality and material movements

• Master data, integrations and interfaces with production-adjacent systems

Responsibilities

• Lead the programme from planning and process design through implementation, testing, deployment and stabilisation.

• Coordinate business functions, process owners, subject matter experts, digital teams, architects, vendors and implementation partners.

• Lead workshops and drive alignment on new business processes and procedures.

• Ensure processes work seamlessly across operations, sales, logistics, procurement, finance and commercial functions.

• Manage scope, priorities, dependencies, risks, decisions, resources and milestones.

• Present progress, risks and recommendations to senior stakeholders and steering committees.

• Ensure data, integrations, testing, training, change management and operational readiness are addressed.

• Build alignment and adoption among business stakeholders and end users.

Requirements (must-haves)

• More than 10 years of relevant experience.

• Strong leadership with the ability to make decisions and, above all, orchestrate experts, functions and stakeholders toward common goals.

• Experience leading complex ERP implementation programmes or large-scale business process transformation initiatives.

• Experience designing and implementing processes across multiple business functions.

• Experience with Order-to-Cash, supply chain, manufacturing, logistics or similar operational processes.

• A background in manufacturing, process industry, heavy industry, energy, chemicals, mining or another operationally complex environment.

• Strong communication skills and the ability to engage effectively with C-level stakeholders, business experts and end users.

• Proven change management capabilities that drive alignment and adoption.

• Experience managing implementation partners, risks, dependencies, testing activities and delivery governance.

• A solid understanding of enterprise IT: architecture, integration platforms, software development and testing.

• The ability to navigate ambiguity and establish structure in greenfield environments where processes and responsibilities are created for the first time.

• Willingness to spend significant time on-site in Northern Sweden as well as in Stockholm.

Meritorious

• Experience with SAP S/4HANA (an advantage, but not essential).

• Experience from metals or steel production.

• Experience with end-to-end flows from supply chain and production through to customer fulfilment in complex industrial operations.

This role is likely not a fit if you

• Have experience limited to PMO coordination or administrative project management.

• Have only managed a technical SAP workstream without owning business process design and implementation.

• Lack experience working across multiple business functions.

• Have no background in manufacturing, process industry or another operationally complex environment.

• Are not comfortable leading workshops and facilitating decisions with senior stakeholders.

• Are unwilling to spend significant time on-site in Northern Sweden.

Location

Northern Sweden and Stockholm. The role requires significant on-site presence during the assignment.
