Adecco is hiring a Program Manager, Program Management – SAP S/4HANA Business Transformation (Operations) to support a multi-year enterprise transformation program. In this role, you’ll work within a Program Management Office (PMO) to help coordinate a portfolio of initiatives across Business Owners, SAP/IT teams, and third-party partners - primarily focused on Operations capabilities (Manufacturing, Maintenance Engineering, Warehouse, and Transportation Management). This position is ideal for a program/portfolio professional who excels at connecting strategy to execution, driving cross-functional alignment, and improving portfolio visibility and readiness - without owning wave-level deployment delivery.

Key Responsibilities

Portfolio Planning & Governance

• Maintain and manage the overall transformation portfolio plan (sequencing, milestones, dependencies, risks), with strong emphasis on Operations workstreams and cross-process impacts.
• Support intake, prioritization, and scope governance aligned to strategy and value drivers.
• Ensure initiatives follow governance standards, stage gates, and decision frameworks.
• Prepare executive-ready updates for steering committees and portfolio reviews.

Business Owner & Process Owner Engagement

• Partner with Business Owners and Enterprise Process Owners to confirm objectives, scope, success measures, and decision ownership.
• Build and track participation plans (in partnership with deployment/change/training leads); flag capacity constraints and engagement risks.
• Support cross-functional alignment when priorities or dependencies conflict.

SAP / IT Coordination

• Collaborate with SAP, Data, and IT teams to align business priorities with release planning and delivery sequencing.
• Provide portfolio-level visibility into delivery progress, risks, and readiness impacts.
• Help ensure integration across process, data, reporting, and technology considerations.

Third-Party / System Integrator Coordination

• Coordinate at a portfolio level with system integrators and partners to align deliverables with governance standards and Supply Chain priorities.
• Track partner-level dependencies, deliverables, and key risks; support issue escalation.

Business Readiness & Adoption

• Coordinate readiness baselining, planning, and milestone tracking across initiatives.
• Partner with Change, Training, Data, and Communications leads to align readiness activities.
• Identify and escalate readiness risks related to timing, capacity, or adoption.

Risk, Dependency & Value Tracking

• Maintain a portfolio-level view of risks, issues, and cross-initiative dependencies.
• Support KPI and benefits tracking; help shift reporting from “tasks completed” to “capabilities delivered/outcomes achieved.”

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree (required)
• 8+ years of project/program management experience
• 3–5 years supporting SAP ERP transformation initiatives (ECC and/or S/4HANA), with a strong focus on Operations
• Experience partnering with business leaders, IT teams, and system integrators
• Strong understanding of end-to-end business processes
• Proven ability to manage cross-functional dependencies and readiness risks
• Direct experience supporting Operations processes in an SAP environment (manufacturing, maintenance engineering, warehouse, transportation)

Preferred Candidate Attributes (Success Profile)

• Integrator & orchestrator who connects strategy to execution across functions and vendors
• Proactively risk-focused and strong in dependency management
• Business-first mindset that prioritizes adoption and outcomes
• Skilled at influencing without authority
• Highly disciplined and detail-oriented - ensures leaders have a single, trusted “source of truth” in program reporting
