Track project delivery against S/4HANA implementation milestones and phase gates
Ensure compliance with SAP Activate methodology and programme delivery standard
Support recovery planning when delivery risks emerge, including re‑planning, re‑sequencing activities, and escalating issues to programme leadership

Workstream Coordination & Delivery Leadership

Coordinate execution across multiple SAP S/4HANA workstreams including functional configuration, technical development, integrations, data migration, testing, and security
Ensure strong collaboration between delivery teams and business process owners
Work closely with architects, functional leads, data teams, and integration teams to ensure alignment across S/4HANA design and delivery

Who will THRIVE in this role:

This role is not for everyone . You are likely to thrive if you:

Excel in ambiguity and pace – Comfortable with low structure, fast decisions, and changing priorities. Energised by pressure rather than drained by it
Are advisory‑led, not tool‑led – Strong in thinking, structuring, and client problem‑solving. You enjoy breadth and impact more than deep configuration or coding
Have an entrepreneurial mindset – You think like an owner, take risks, back yourself, and are motivated by outcomes and impact – not just role security
Have a high work ethic and resilience – Willing to hustle and sustain intensity over extended periods, travel frequently
Fit INNOVERV’s culture – Comfortable with:
- Direct, no‑nonsense feedback
- Agility over polish
- Minimal hierarchy and governance
