Your role in the team
- The focus is on the further development of SAP-supported logistics processes—with a clear emphasis on EWM and the adjacent MM processes.
- What matters is not the introduction, but the functioning daily routine.
- Systems must run stably, be technically supported, and develop concurrently.
- This specifically includes:
- Ensuring a stable, transparent, and resilient system operation.
- Structuring and consolidating requirements from departments, locations, and contractual frameworks.
- Translate professional needs into actionable solutions with clear prioritization.
- Facilitating decision-making — even amidst conflicting interests.
- Support throughout the implementation process until actual operation.
- The role consciously operates at the intersection of the business unit, IT, and external partners.
- Different expectations are the norm - not the exception.
- Responsibility for the further development of SAP solutions in the EWM/MM area throughout the entire lifecycle - from requirements to stable operation.
- Recording, structuring, and evaluating requirements in terms of benefit, feasibility, and impact on existing processes.
- Translation of technical requirements into concrete implementation packages (e.g., User Stories, Epics, technical concepts).
- Planning and management of (sub-)projects - from initialization to productive use.
- Coordination and management of external service providers with a clear focus on quality of results and integration into the existing system landscape.
- Ensure that further development and ongoing operations remain meaningfully integrated - including prioritization, dependencies, and release planning.
- Active role at the interface between the business unit, IT, and operational sites - with a focus on feasibility in daily operations.
