• You will partner with business and technology stakeholders — including Digital Technology teams, enterprise architects, product owners, and system integrators — to deliver integrated and scalable solutions.
• You will communicate solution direction, risks, and decisions clearly to both technical teams and senior business stakeholders, ensuring alignment at every level.
• You will translate complex business requirements into effective SAP S/4HANA process and solution designs, with clear traceability to business outcomes.
• You will apply expertise in SAP S/4HANA for Fashion and Retail to support demand and supply netting, seasonal buy, inventory pooling, and omnichannel fulfilment.
• You will design and govern Supply Assignment and Advanced ATP scenarios that preserve demand priorities, optimize inventory allocation, and support business-specific sourcing and fulfilment strategies across channels and locations.
• You will ensure robust integration across demand and supply planning, procurement, inventory management, order fulfilment, warehouse operations, and external planning platforms.
