Job Description:
As we work to transform and optimize Mars, a new program has been mobilized by the Mars leadership team. The program is focused on the design and implementation of SAP S/4Hana in Mars across Segments (Petcare, Corporate, Snacking & Food). Much more than a simple “Lift and Shift,” this program will undertake a major process simplification and harmonization scope as we digitally transform our business.
The program is focused primarily on eight mega process areas: Finance, Source to Pay (procurement and vendor mgmt.), Plan to Fulfill (manufacturing and distribution), Lead to Cash (order processing and payment), Governance, Engage to Consume (marketing), Idea to Market (R&D), and Recruit to Retire (HR). This transformation requires thought leadership, quality decision making, deep technical know-how, and an ability to navigate complex business challenges while applying a holistic and multi-disciplinary approach to each of these mega processes. As part of program, a new role has been created to lead the SAP DevOps workstream, managing the design, implementation and operation of DevOps practices within the SAP S/4Hana landscape including S/4Hana, BTP extensions, ABAP development and integration components. This role is a critical leadership role demanding a balanced blend of technical expertise and strategic thinking; as well as driving a robust scalable and secure SAP ecosystem aligned with global standards.
Do you thrive working in the project environment? Do you have a deep understanding of SAP products and technologies and previous experience coordinating SAP transformation projects? If so, join us in delivering this sustainable, business-driven S/4HANA program and in driving a successful digital transformation, to make a significant positive impact.
What are we looking for?
* 7+ years of SAP DevOps experience, including at least two full lifecycle S/4HANA implementations and strong knowledge of SAP technical architecture, transports, and extensions.
* Certified SAP Technology Associate with hands-on experience in landscape transformation, Fiori/UI5 development, SAP Gateway, and BTP tools like Cloud ALM and Active Control.
* Proven ability to manage multi-instance environments within template-led transformations and hybrid/cloud infrastructure models.
* Skilled in Agile and hybrid delivery models, with a strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines and DevOps best practices.
* Strong leadership, troubleshooting, and stakeholder management skills, with experience collaborating with system integrators and cross-functional teams.
* Excellent communicator with a proactive mindset, strong documentation and presentation skills, and the ability to thrive under pressure.
What will be your key responsibilities?
* Live and exemplify the Five Principles of Mars, Inc. within self and team.
* Lead all SAP DevOps activities across the global S/4Hana Landscape and collaborate/work with existing BAU Basis Team.
* Lead a small DevOps team and coordinate with SI.
* Manage ABAP and custom code
* Align transport strategies with delivery cycles and support dual-track landscapes
* Manage SAP DevOps tool landscape
* Manage cross-team and stakeholder relationships to drive collaboration and meet shared goals
* Apply problem solving and critical thinking to enable the identification of Technology and Risks associated.
* Work effectively in diverse team within an inclusive team culture where people are recognised for their contribution.
* Stay updated on emerging technologies and implement best practice to enhance SAP ecosystem.
What can you expect from Mars?
* Work with diverse and talented Associates, all guided by the Five Principles.
* Join a purpose driven company, where we’re striving to build the world we want tomorrow, today.
* Best-in-class learning and development support from day one, including access to our in-house Mars University.
* An industry competitive salary and benefits package, including company bonus.
