## About the Role

We're looking for an experienced SAP leader with a strong hands-on SAP Finance functional background, who has progressed into team leadership and is comfortable operating across both business and technology.

You'll have deep knowledge of SAP Finance, a good understanding of Order-to-Cash and wider end-to-end SAP processes, and experience leading and developing SAP functional teams in a BAU environment.

You'll understand SAP S/4HANA and the opportunities around adoption, optimisation and continuous improvement, and be confident managing business demand, competing priorities and relationships with systems integrators and support partners.

Most importantly, you'll be a strong people leader and business partner who can bring the best out of the team while continuing to move our SAP capability forward.

You'll work closely with Finance and Distribution stakeholders to understand priorities, manage demand and ensure we continue to deliver a stable, effective SAP service. You'll lead and develop the team, drive continuous improvement and help shape the future SAP functional roadmap as we continue our S/4HANA journey.

You'll also play an important role in identifying how we can get more value from SAP, including opportunities to simplify processes and make greater use of automation, AI and emerging SAP capabilities.
