This is a high-impact role that requires a self-motivated professional who can hit the ground running and deliver results quickly.
Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:
This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
- Technology Landscape Oversight: Serve as the single point of visibility for all supply chain technology platforms, including SAP S/4HANA, EDI, 3PL integrations, and related SaaS apps. Maintain a clear view of the value and risk profile of each solution, focusing resources where they are most impactful. Ensure integrations and dependencies between SAP and external systems are understood, documented, and well-governed.
- SAP Partnership & Core Optimization: Leverage deep SAP S/4HANA supply chain expertise to influence and support continuous improvement of the core ERP platform. Partner closely with the SAP team to prioritize innovations, ensure scalability, and maintain alignment with business strategy. Drive best practices for SAP configuration, data governance, and integration design.

Ensure the business has visibility into technical roadmaps and can make informed decisions about system investments and priorities. Proactively identify improvement opportunities and champion innovation initiatives.
- Connected Systems Governance: Oversee the health and evolution of connected solutions such as TrueCommerce EDI platform, 3PL and logistics system integrations, and other supply chain SaaS applications (e.g., demand planning, transportation tools).

- Deep expertise in SAP S/4HANA supply chain expertise, TrueCommerce EDI, 3PL integrations, and related SaaS applications. This isn't a learning role—you need to be a subject matter expert.
- Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and manage your own time effectively to meet project goals.
- Experience with managing or influencing integrations across multiple platforms, especially SAP-connected solutions like EDI and 3PLs. Strong knowledge of supply chain operations and processes.

- Ability to travel domestically up to 10–15%.
