This role requires an individual who excels at business process re-engineering, stakeholder management, and translating complex supply chain requirements into robust SAP designs.

Qualifications & Skills
Experience: 6+ years of hands-on functional experience in SAP Supply Chain Planning, with at least 2 full-lifecycle implementations of SAP IBP.

Legacy Knowledge: Strong working knowledge of legacy SAP APO modules (DP, SNP, or PP/DS) to facilitate migration pathways.
