SAP Center Of Excellence (COE) Senior Manager

Job Description:

Job Summary:

We are seeking an experienced SAP Center of Excellence (COE) Senior Manager to lead and evolve a high-performing SAP organization within a complex enterprise environment. This is a senior leadership role for someone who brings deep SAP delivery credibility and can remain close to the technical work, not removed from it.

This is not a purely governance or people-management position. The ideal candidate will be hands-on when needed, capable of engaging directly with senior SAP analysts, and able to guide SAP strategy and execution across multiple business cycles while ensuring alignment with enterprise objectives.

Key Job Responsibilities:

• Lead and grow the SAP Center of Excellence, providing direction, standards, and priorities across SAP delivery and support
• Serve as a technical and functional escalation point for complex SAP challenges, design decisions, and delivery execution
• Partner with business and IT stakeholders to ensure SAP solutions align with enterprise goals and operational realities
• Guide and develop a strong SAP technical team through mentorship, coaching, and career development
• Drive successful execution across full SAP program lifecycles, including:
  • Large-scale implementations
  • Digital transformation initiatives
  • Post-go-live stabilization and continuous improvement
• Establish practical guardrails, architecture standards, and delivery discipline without over-engineering
• Ensure SAP initiatives meet compliance expectations within a SOX-regulated environment
• Collaborate with global teams and provide leadership presence across international operations, including onsite engagement as needed.

Qualifications:

• Significant SAP leadership experience within large, complex enterprise environments
• Deep SAP credibility with the ability to engage in technical design discussions and challenge assumptions when necessary
• Strong foundation in SAP functional and/or technical delivery (FICO highly preferred; additional modules a plus)
• Proven track record of leading teams to successfully deliver major SAP programs
• Experience implementing enterprise systems in a SOX-controlled environment
• Demonstrated ability to balance architecture, delivery execution, and business alignment
• Operator mindset with a history of owning outcomes end-to-end
• Strong judgment with the ability to diplomatically push back on misaligned priorities
• Align, lead, and inspire teams toward a common goal
• Deliver results while identifying and mitigating risks to the enterprise
• Stay grounded in Array Technologies’ values and behaviors
• Develop talent and champion diversity across the organization

Preferred Profile:

The ideal candidate is a seasoned SAP leader who has grown through hands-on delivery roles rather than governance alone. This individual understands what works in practice, has experience operating SAP at scale, and can lead a COE with a pragmatic, execution-focused mindset.

We value leaders who are:

• Low ego, high trust
• Confident and steady under pressure
• Comfortable working across cultures and global teams
• Willing to travel to operational facilities and build credibility through listening and presence
