Job description
Senior IT Project Manager SAP | ERP Transformation
South Wales | Hybrid with European & International Travel
IntaPeople are pleased to be appointed to recruit a Senior Technical SAP focussed Project Manager for a global manufacturing business that is thriving across its international markets and has no signs of slowing down. This is a permanent opportunity to join the business during a major ERP transformation programme, expected to run for around the next 10+ years.
The business currently runs SAP ECC and is exploring S/4HANA alongside other ERP options to roll out across its global sites. As the Technical SAP Project Manager, you will play a key role in shaping and delivering this programme, working closely with senior stakeholders, consultants, operations, finance, IT and external partners.
This role is a backfill for an existing Senior Project Manager who is moving into another area of the business so they will shadow and oversee the transition with you, giving you a strong handover and continuity from day one.
This is not just a project management role. It is a highly technical Project Manager position, and candidates must bring strong hands-on technical knowledge of SAP/ERP systems alongside proven project delivery.
Key responsibilities at a glance (further candidate pack available on request):
- ERP Transformation: Help shape and deliver a long-term ERP transformation, from SAP ECC towards S/4HANA OR alternative ERP platforms.
- Technical Project Delivery: Lead SAP/ERP projects end to end, from scoping and technical design through to testing, cutover, go-live and hypercare.
- International Rollouts: Manage deployments across sites in Europe and internationally, travelling to support local teams.
- Stakeholder Management: Engage with senior stakeholders across operations, finance and IT, keeping the business aligned and informed.
- Partner Management: Manage SAP implementation partners and third-party suppliers to agreed scope, cost and quality.
- Governance & Reporting: Own project plans, budgets, risks and issues, reporting progress to steering committees.
- Handover & Continuity: Work alongside the outgoing project manager during a structured transition.
Experience (at a glance):
- Proven experience as a Technical SAP/ERP Project Manager, delivering end-to-end SAP projects.
- Strong technical knowledge of SAP ECC and/or S/4HANA, and wider ERP systems.
- Experience delivering projects across multiple sites or countries.
- Comfortable with regular European and international travel.
- Strong stakeholder management skills, from site teams to senior leadership.
- Experience managing budgets, plans, risks and third-party partners.
- Experience of ECC to S/4HANA migration or ERP selection would be advantageous.
- Experience within manufacturing, automotive or supply chain environments would be advantageous.
- Project management qualifications such as PRINCE2, PMP or SAP Activate would be advantageous.
Travel & working pattern:
- Travel is fully expensed door to door.
- European visits are typically a couple of days at a time.
- International visits, including Indonesia and North America, can be a maximum of 2-3 weeks at a time, usually 3-4 times per year.
- Onsite presence in South Wales is required, typically 1 day per week, or 2 days one week and none the next, depending on your location. This can also be flexible and discussed at interview stage but this is NOT a remote role.
- Culture is ingrained throughout the business, so you must be comfortable with regular travel and onsite visits.
