**About the Role**

As ERP Solution Architect, you will step into a strategic role at the very heart of our global ERP transformation. You will be responsible for defining and driving the overall SAP S/4HANA architecture - from initial greenfield design to long-term evolution - ensuring alignment across business domains and IT.

You will work closely with business stakeholders, SAP consultants, and internal solution managers to translate business needs into integrated, scalable, and future-ready solutions that support our growth and regulatory requirements across all global sites.

While this is not a hands-on configuration role, we are looking for someone with solid technical insight into SAP and a deep understanding of how to design and evaluate high-quality solutions - including the ability to challenge and validate architectural decisions from implementation partners.

**Key Responsibilities**

In this role, you will:

- Serve as lead architect for the SAP S/4HANA greenfield implementation and future roadmap.
- Translate complex business requirements into robust end-to-end SAP solution designs (Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, Plan-to-Deliver, Record-to-Report, etc.).
- Validate and challenge architectural decisions from our SAP partners, ensuring alignment with industry standards, pharma regulations, and business needs.
- Define and maintain SAP architecture principles, governance frameworks, and integration strategies.
- Drive process harmonization, system integration, and data consistency across all business functions.
- Evaluate emerging SAP technologies (e.g., BTP, Cloud ALM) and advise on their adoption.
- Mentor SAP project teams and act as technical counterpart to Solution Managers.

**Your Profile**

To succeed in this role, we believe you bring:

- A degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or similar.
- 10+ years of experience within SAP ERP architecture and implementation.
- Proven track record with SAP S/4HANA, ideally in greenfield implementations.
- Industry experience from CDMO/pharma or other regulated industries is a plus.
- Broad understanding of SAP modules and integration points.
- Knowledge of enterprise architecture frameworks and governance models.
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
- A collaborative, proactive, and analytical mindset - with the ability to bridge business and IT.
- Proficient in English, both speaking and writing.
