  • Supplier Master Data
  • Integration points with Finance, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Warehouse operations.
• Ensure that SAP design decisions support operational scalability, strong financial controls, and efficient procurement execution across the enterprise.

• Familiarity with SOX requirements for finance systems, ideally in a pre-IPO or recently public-company environment.
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, growth-stage environment building a system rather than maintaining one.

Requirements

• Lead the design and implementation of SAP S/4HANA MM solutions across procurement and inventory management processes.
• Define end-to-end solution architecture aligned with enterprise business requirements and SAP best practices.
• Provide functional leadership for SAP MM-related projects, assessments, enhancements, and transformation initiatives.
