A bit about the role
As Director – SAP S/4HANA Supply Chain, you will operate at Solution Architect level, leading the design and delivery of complex, end-to-end supply chain transformation programmes.
This is a highly strategic, client-facing role where you will act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders—owning solution architecture across planning, procurement, manufacturing, logistics and fulfilment, and guiding organisations through S/4HANA transformation journeys.
Alongside delivery, you will play a key role in developing and growing the Supply Chain practice—supporting pre-sales, shaping capability, and defining best practice.

- Drive end-to-end process design and operating model alignment across the supply chain value chain
- Oversee design governance, integration strategy, and key architecture decisions across large programmes
- Lead and support pre-sales activities, including solutioning, estimations, demos, and RFP/RFI responses
- Present clear, value-led transformation roadmaps and solution designs to prospective and existing clients
- Act as a senior escalation point for delivery teams on complex functional or architectural challenges
- Mentor and develop consultants, leads and architects within the Supply Chain practice
- Contribute to practice growth through development of assets, accelerators, and repeatable delivery models
