Project Manager-SAP

About the Role

We are looking for two experienced and driven Project Managers to lead and manage SAP implementation and support engagements for our clients. This is a mid-level role suited to professionals who have hands-on experience running SAP projects end-to-end - from planning and blueprinting through go-live and hypercare/support - and who can balance schedule, cost, quality, scope, and stakeholder expectations across cross-functional and often geographically distributed teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end delivery of SAP implementation and/or AMS (Application Management Support) projects, ensuring they are delivered on time, within budget, and to the agreed quality standards.
• Develop and maintain detailed project plans, work breakdown structures, resource plans, and RAID (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) logs.
• Act as the primary point of contact for clients/stakeholders, managing expectations, communicating status, and escalating issues proactively.
• Coordinate with functional and technical consultants (FI/CO, MM, SD, PP, HCM, Basis, ABAP, etc.) to ensure alignment across workstreams.
• Manage project governance - steering committee updates, status reporting, change requests, and milestone/stage-gate reviews.
• Track project budgets, effort/cost estimates, and resource utilization; flag variances and drive corrective action.
• Manage scope and change control, ensuring changes are assessed for impact on timeline, cost, and resources before approval.
• Drive risk and issue management, ensuring timely identification, mitigation planning, and resolution.
• For support/AMS engagements: oversee SLA adherence, ticket/incident trends, and continuous service improvement initiatives.
• Facilitate testing cycles (SIT/UAT), cutover planning, go-live readiness, and post go-live hypercare support.
• Mentor and guide junior project coordinators/consultants, fostering a collaborative and accountable team culture.
• Ensure project documentation, sign-offs, and knowledge transfer artifacts are maintained per organizational and client standards.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• 5-10 years of overall experience, with a minimum of 3-4 years specifically in SAP project management (implementation, rollout, upgrade, or support).
• Proven track record of managing at least 1-2 full-cycle SAP implementation or S/4HANA migration projects, or multiple ongoing SAP support/AMS engagements.
• Solid understanding of SAP project methodologies - SAP Activate, ASAP, or equivalent implementation frameworks.
• Working knowledge of at least one or more SAP functional/technical areas (e.g., FI/CO, MM, SD, PP, HCM, Basis) sufficient to engage credibly with consultants and clients.
• Strong command of project management tools (MS Project, JIRA, Confluence, ServiceNow, Smartsheet, or similar) and reporting/dashboarding practices.
• Excellent stakeholder management, communication, and client-facing skills; comfortable presenting to senior leadership and steering committees.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving ability, with experience managing budgets, resource plans, and vendor/subcontractor coordination.
• Bachelor s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Business Administration, or a related field; MBA is a plus.
