Job description

Do you want to use your deep SAP expertise to keep offshore wind assets running safely, efficiently and predictably?

As our Senior System Expert, you will guide the full maintenance & supply-chain systems landscape across BA Wind and ensure that thousands of operational decisions every day are supported by reliable, intuitive and future-proof digital solutions.

This is your chance to combine hands-on system involvement with strategic influence - and to help accelerate Vattenfall's mission to enable a fossil freedom.

Be in your element with BA Wind

As part of BA Wind you will play a key role in one of the most exciting pipelines in the industry with 24GW of capacity stretching out more than a decade ahead across our key European markets.

You won't only be involved in developing projects but pioneering cutting-edge innovation, new business models and ways of working with communities and the environment. Working as part of a leading European utility also means you could be helping a growing number of major businesses and brands achieve their own sustainability goals through partnerships.

What you will do You will be the functional and solution owner of our SAP PM/MM environment and the business lead for system improvements across the international Offshore portfolio. You translate business needs into clear system requirements, partner closely with IT, and make sure that what we build truly supports our people in the field.

Your core responsibilities include:

  • Hold the business mandate for maintenance & supply-chain system solutions across BA Wind.
  • Define and communicate a clear systems vision aligned with operational and long-term strategy.
  • Lead system implementation projects from scoping to go-live, including business case development and resource alignment.
  • Steer the development portfolio together with the Business Demand Manager and senior stakeholders.
  • Actively contribute to configuration discussions, testing, training and readiness activities.
  • Connect and align stakeholders across SCMS, Operations, Engineering, Finance, D1R and IT.
  • Represent Vattenfall in international governance forums such as ILKUG.
  • Identify improvement opportunities and help raise systems capability across the organisation.

Qualifications

Your profile

You enjoy working closely with system users, data experts and IT partners - and you bring both expertise and curiosity to every step of the process. You like to connect perspectives, bring clarity, support decision-making and translate complexity into something practical and useful.

Requirements

  • A bachelor's or master's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science or similar.
  • 8-10 years of relevant experience, including several years in a senior functional or systems-driven role.
  • Deep knowledge of SAP PM/MM, ideally including S/4HANA.
  • Experience leading cross-functional system implementations and/or portfolio governance.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder-alignment skills in an international context.
  • Full professional proficiency in English.

Benefits & conditions

Looking for a role where your superpowers can be leveraged to the maximum and with limitless opportunities for growth?

The scale and ambition of our wind, battery and solar business means you can really find your element with us. We'll also provide you with all the learning and development you need to expand your horizons.

We strive to be the best place to work in the industry with highly competitive pay and conditions and an open, supportive culture. A commitment to a healthy work-life balance aims to ensure everyone plays to their strengths, whatever their background and experiences.

You will be part of a growing team of 1,700+ colleagues from 50+ nationalities where our positive approach to diversity is reflected in the fact that more than a quarter of staff are women.
