SAP Project Manager - Finance & Tax Implementation
9 months
Outside IR35 (£(Apply online only) P/D)
Hybrid / UK-based with travel to Brazil (2-3 trips)
Travel Requirement: Travel to Rio Claro, Brazil for key project milestones (e.g., training, UAT, go-live)
Our client is seeking an experienced SAP Project Manager to lead the end-to-end implementation of a new SAP Finance and Tax system. This critical role will involve overseeing the full project lifecycle, including planning, execution, stakeholder management, data migration, and integration with third-party systems. The successful candidate will bring deep SAP implementation experience, particularly in finance transformation, and a solid understanding of core business processes such as Order to Cash (O2C) and Procure to Pay (P2P).
Key Responsibilities
Project Leadership & Delivery: Lead end-to-end delivery of the SAP Finance & Tax implementation, ensuring alignment with timelines, resources, and project governance frameworks (BIS PMO methodology).
Governance & Compliance: Manage project documentation, milestone sign-offs, and support internal audits as needed.
Change Management: Collaborate with business change teams to support a smooth transition from current (AS-IS) to future (TO-BE) processes, including O2C and P2P workstreams.
Milestone & Schedule Management: Monitor and adapt schedules around key deliverables (e.g., data migration, UAT, go-live) and hybrid UK/Brazil time zones.
Stakeholder Communication: Provide timely and structured updates to all levels of stakeholders, including Executive and Operating Steering Committees.
Data Migration Oversight: Coordinate closely with the Data Migration Lead to ensure data-related activities align with the overall project timeline.
Vendor Management: Oversee third-party performance against contractual deliverables, conduct regular progress reviews, escalate issues, and drive corrective actions.
Brazil Localisation & Compliance: Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders to identify and implement all required Brazil-specific legal and tax localisations, ensuring full compliance amid ongoing tax reforms.
Template Customisation: Adapt global SAP templates to meet local regulatory and operational requirements-particularly within the O2C and P2P process areas-in collaboration with Global Process Owners and the business change team.
Cost Management: Support budget tracking and cost reporting in partnership with the Programme Manager, ensuring financial transparency and timely variance reporting.
Stakeholder & Partner Coordination: Align Brazil-based teams, global stakeholders, and third-party vendors through structured communication, conflict resolution, and collaboration across time zones.
Travel & Flexibility: Willingness to travel to Brazil (Rio Claro) for key project milestones and adapt working hours primarily to UK time, with flexibility as required.
Interested? Please submit your updated CV to Olivia Yafai / Lewis Rushton at Crimson for immediate consideration.
