  • Process Optimization - Identify and implement improvements in logistics processes through SAP, ensuring they are efficient, scalable, and aligned with industry best practices.
  • Risk Management - Anticipate potential project risks related to logistics processes and develop mitigation strategies to minimize impact.
  • Team Leadership - Manage cross-functional project teams, providing guidance, support, and leadership to ensure successful project outcomes.
  • Integration Management - Ensure seamless integration between SAP logistics modules and other SAP modules (such as finance) to support end-to-end business processes.
  • Change Management - Develop and implement change management strategies to ensure smooth adoption of new SAP logistics solutions across the organization.
  • Quality Assurance - Oversee the quality of project deliverables, including system configurations, documentation, and training materials, to ensure they meet organizational standards.
  • Financial Oversight - If applicable, collaborate with the finance team to understand the financial implications of logistics processes and ensure accurate cost management and reporting.


Qualifications:
  • Proven experience as an SAP Project Manager with a focus on logistics modules (SAP EWM, SAP MM, SAP SD). Experience in managing complex SAP implementation projects is essential.
  • Deep understanding of logistics and supply chain processes, including inventory management, warehousing, procurement, and distribution.
  • Project Management Skills: Strong proficiency in project management methodologies (e.g., PMP, PRINCE2) with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Familiarity with SAP finance modules (SAP FI/CO) is desirable but not mandatory.
  • Excellent leadership and team management abilities, with a track record of successfully leading cross-functional project teams.


Why Join Us:
  • Strategic Role- Take on a leadership role in transforming logistics processes through SAP, driving efficiency and innovation in the supply chain.
  • Professional Development - Opportunities for growth and learning in project management, SAP logistics, and related areas.
  • Impactful Work - Contribute to projects that have a significant impact on the organization's logistics and supply chain operations.
