About the Role

As an SAP Basis Senior Manager on SAP transformation projects, you will define and own the end-to-end SAP platform strategy across complex, multi-workstream transformation programs, ensuring architectural coherence from design through hypercare and handover. You will lead enterprise-scale SAP landscape architecture decisions, set platform engineering standards and governance frameworks, and own the commercial and delivery relationship for Basis platform scope.

Responsibilities

Define and own the end-to-end SAP platform strategy across complex, multi-workstream transformation programs — spanning S/4HANA Greenfield, Brownfield conversion, BTP/cloud extension, and AMS steady state — ensuring architectural coherence from design through hypercare and handover.
Lead enterprise-scale SAP landscape architecture decisions — including system consolidation, multi-tier HA/DR topology, SAP RISE vs. private cloud vs. hybrid positioning, Azure infrastructure right-sizing (Mv3), and network/security perimeter design.
Set platform engineering standards and governance frameworks — establishing Basis delivery methodology, tooling standards (Solution Manager, Focused Run, CCMS), transport governance policy, and incident/change management operating models across programs and accounts.
Own the commercial and delivery relationship for Basis platform scope on platform roadmaps, change order scoping, SLA negotiation, and continuous service improvement.
Represent the platform perspective in program governance — participating in steering committees, executive status reviews, and risk/issue forums; translating platform complexity into strategic clarity for senior client and internal leadership.

Requirements

Minimum of 8 years experience in SAP Basis, with a minimum of three enterprise-scale S/4HANA transformation programs delivered in a Senior Platform leadership role.
Minimum of 5 years of experience/expertise across the full SAP Basis domain — HANA architecture, HA/DR, security/compliance, transport governance, monitoring operations, and cloud infrastructure — with the ability to set standards rather than follow them.
Minimum of 3 years of experience/proven track record managing complex, multi-geography SAP landscapes in both transformation and AMS contexts, including RISE engagements and hybrid cloud architectures.
Minimum of 3 years of demonstrated experience owning client relationships at CIO/IT Director level — including SLA accountability, commercial discussions, and strategic platform advisory.
Experience leading and developing teams of 20+ Basis professionals across multiple concurrent engagements.
Strong executive communication and influencing skills — able to drive alignment across client leadership, Accenture delivery leadership, and SAP account teams.
Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent (12 years) work experience (If an, Associate’s Degree with 6 years of work experience)
