Oslo, Oslo County, Norway Gartner Full time

Role title: Director SAP, Consulting

Location: Stockholm, Sweden

About the role

Gartner Consulting sees a growing demand for advanced independent advice in the SAP domain and is looking for a seasoned individual to join our Nordic & European team. The role is expected to deliver services across the end-to-end SAP strategy and implementation lifecycle, building practice capability to drive accelerated client value and impact across public sector and commercial industries. The successful candidate will enhance the ERP/SAP capability alongside a focused team of SAP experts who are seeking to empower our clients' capabilities across the Nordic and EMEA region.

Our objective is to deliver increased value to our clients beyond strategy development and towards transformational value realization. Therefore, the successful candidate will proactively seek opportunities to develop and mature the Enterprise Applications consulting service with a focus on SAP, which will also include SAP strategy, assurance, programme management, and architecture definition.

We seek candidates who have strong and recent experience in delivering end-to-end ERP/SAP transformation programmes from initial strategic assessment, target definition, and business case through implementation and go-live for large and global enterprises.

The candidate will be self-motivated and willing to drive the maturity of the Gartner Enterprise Applications capability, including:

  • Identification of enhanced capability growth opportunities.

  • Developing go-to-market plans and executing them.

  • Enhancing approaches/methodologies and tooling to accelerate client impact as well as leveraging Gartner research where suitable.

  • Providing key deliverable quality assurance.

What you'll need:

Consulting Experience in Practice & Capability Development:

  • Extensive client-facing consulting experience ideally from a tier 1 consultancy.

  • Excellent executive communication skills at CxO level.

  • Willingness to develop strategic analysis and presentations for clients with the support of concise capable teams using Powerpoint presentation.

  • Good knowledge of competitor service offerings in SAP strategic advisory, implementation, and assurance.

  • Experience leading or willingness to contribute to the development of an existing SAP capability - maturing and refining the existing SAP service offering including the activities and deliverables to provide strategic as-is assessment and target state definition, and implementation roadmap.

  • Willingness to work with clients across EMEA (limited travel).

  • Eligible for Swedish Security Clearance.

  • Must be fluent in the Swedish language.

In addition, you will ideally be experienced in both pre-sales and implementation work. However, if your skillset focuses on one more than the other, please do not hesitate to apply. In particular, the following experience would be valuable:

Presales:

  • Strategic assessments and direction setting for customers, including current state assessment, strategic optioneering, and target state definition.

  • Business case development for S/4HANA.

  • Programme definition and planning/roadmapping.

  • Implementation costing/estimation.

  • Solution Integrator contracting/contract assessments.

Implementation:

  • Prior experience in a "techno-functional" role and currently working within SAP programme management or SAP Enterprise Architecture.

  • Experience of delivering multiple E2E implementations across large enterprise SAP projects from strategy to delivery.

  • Senior or leadership role in 2+ large migrations to S/4 HANA.

  • Good understanding of the process and activities required, as well as knowledge of how to baseline the existing SAP/ERP solutions and plan for a transition to an S/4 HANA-enabled target state.

  • Awareness of different ERP solutions and common approaches for strategy development/assessment (using Gartner research as an additional source).
