Job Summary

The Director of Enterprise Applications leads the strategy, governance, implementation, and support of Cynosure's global SAP-centered enterprise application portfolio, with primary emphasis on SAP Sales and Distribution (SD), Order-to-Cash processes, SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud, and the integrations that connect commercial, customer, logistics, tax, service, and financial operations. This leader partners closely with Sales Operations, Customer Operations, Finance, Supply Chain, Service, Quality, and Information Services to standardize and improve SAP-enabled business processes — providing hands-on leadership across order management, pricing, interface governance, testing and validation, SAP security, and operational support. Experience with SAP Finance and Controlling, Record-to-Report, and SD-FI integration is a strong plus.

Essential Duties And Responsibilities

The incumbent may be asked to perform other function-related activities in addition to the below-mentioned responsibilities as reasonably required by business needs.

• SAP SD & Order-to-Cash leadership: Serve as the enterprise applications leader for SAP SD and end-to-end Order-to-Cash processes — customer master/business partner, pricing, quotes/orders, delivery, billing, returns, EDI, tax, logistics, and downstream financial integration. Partner with business owners to standardize, improve, and support these processes, translating requirements into practical SAP solutions and measurable outcomes.
• SAP S/4HANA program leadership: Lead SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud programs, including upgrades, migrations, landscape strategy, cutover, testing, validation, hypercare, and steady-state operations.

Manage external providers and vendors to ensure effective delivery of support, enhancements, and incident/problem management.

Partner with architecture and technical teams on SAP BTP, Integration Suite/CPI, APIs, IDocs, and middleware to ensure interfaces are reliable, monitored, documented, and designed for operational supportability.
• Financial integration: Work with Finance and Accounting to support the integration between SAP SD and Finance and Controlling processes — billing, accounts receivable, revenue, credit, tax, intercompany, reconciliation, and period-close impacts. SAP Finance depth is preferred.

Manage testing, UAT, validation documentation, and release approvals. Partner with security and audit on SAP roles, segregation of duties, and access reviews. Improve master data governance and cross-system data consistency.
• Portfolio, budget & program delivery: Develop and manage the enterprise applications portfolio — enhancement demand, project budgets, licensing, vendor spend, and risk. Provide cross-functional program management for major SAP business process, integration, and data migration initiatives, identifying risks and dependencies early.
• Operational excellence & team leadership: Own KPIs with business partners to measure system health, process performance, and interface stability. Build, develop, and lead the Enterprise Applications team — employees, managed-services resources, and contractors — establishing clear accountabilities and performance expectations.
• Communication & change leadership: Communicate application strategy, status, risks, and business impacts to stakeholders at all levels, and drive the organization toward standardized, simplified processes.
• Embody and live our company Values.
