• Collaborate with data migration, security, architecture, integration and functional teams to deliver trusted, governed and secure reporting.
• Lead SAP Datasphere and SAC consultants and partner resources, managing priorities, delivery quality, risks and dependencies.
• Define the transition to hypercare and BAU, including knowledge transfer, documentation, support processes and ongoing enhancement governance.

This is: what you'll need

• Strong working knowledge of SAP Analytics Cloud, SAP Datasphere, SAP Data Products and S/4HANA embedded analytics.
• Practical experience with CDS views, Fiori analytical applications, analytical models, dashboards and KPI frameworks.
• Solid understanding of SAP data models and reporting across areas such as FI/CO, MM, SD and/or PP.
• Experience translating complex business reporting requirements and KPIs into scalable technical solutions.

• Understanding of role-based access, row-level security and reporting authorisation requirements.
• Demonstrated experience leading delivery teams, consultants and implementation partner resources.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, including confidence working with senior business, technical and program leaders.
• Excellent analytical, communication and problem-solving skills with the ability to challenge legacy approaches and drive pragmatic outcomes.
