Vice President, SAP
AMAT
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
Job ID: 525895
Position OverviewWe are hiring a Vice President, SAP, to lead our SAP organization across the full lifecycle - active transformation projects, ongoing enhancement work, and production support. This is a senior, highly visible role for a pragmatic, hands-on technology leader who has personally been in the trenches of SAP-led transformations and now leads the teams that deliver them.
The successful candidate is a true SAP expert with deep S/4HANA experience who can set technical direction, make sound architecture and delivery decisions, and roll up their sleeves alongside the team. This is not a role for a theorist - we are looking for an operator who has implemented SAP, knows where transformations succeed and fail, and can lead with credibility earned through hands-on experience.
Key Responsibilities - Lead the SAP team across all modes of work: greenfield/brownfield transformation projects, enhancement and continuous-improvement work, and day-to-day production support.
- Own the SAP application landscape end to end, including SAP Commerce Cloud, S/4HANA, SuccessFactors, and Concur.
- Provide leadership and oversight for adjacent non-SAP applications integral to the ecosystem, including Apex, Coupa, and Vertex.
- Set technical and delivery direction for SAP-led transformation initiatives - scope, design decisions, sequencing, risk management, and quality of delivery.
- Balance delivery of new capability against the stability and reliability of the existing landscape, ensuring support and enhancement work is not crowded out by project demands.
- Build, develop, and retain a high-performing SAP team across functional, technical, and delivery disciplines; coach toward a hands-on, accountable, outcome-driven culture.
- Establish pragmatic governance, standards, and ways of working that fit the pace of the business rather than slowing it down.
- Legacy Application teams - coordinating coexistence, data, and migration across the legacy estate.
- Integration teams - ensuring clean, reliable interfaces between SAP, non-SAP applications, and external systems.
- Organizational Change Management (OCM) teams - aligning solution design with adoption, training, and readiness.
- Business Performance teams - connecting SAP capabilities to measurable business outcomes.
Qualifications - 15+ years of experience in SAP, spanning both senior leadership roles and hands-on delivery roles - you have led teams and have personally done the work.
- Demonstrated success implementing SAP through SAP-led transformations, ideally across multiple full lifecycle programs.
- Hands-on S/4HANA experience is required; experience in the building products industry (or closely adjacent manufacturing/distribution sectors) is strongly preferred.
- Track record leading teams that simultaneously deliver projects, enhancements, and support.
- Experience overseeing a broad application portfolio that includes SAP Commerce Cloud, SuccessFactors, and Concur, plus integrated non-SAP applications (e.g., Coupa, Vertex, Apex).
Education/Experience- Pragmatic, hands-on leader - comfortable diving into the detail and making decisions, not just directing from a distance.
- Strong technical credibility that earns the trust of engineers, architects, and functional experts.
- Proven ability to work across organizational boundaries and lead through influence with legacy, integration, OCM, and business partners.
- Clear communicator who can translate between technical teams and business stakeholders, including at the executive level.
