At Evolve today we offer complex Human Resources services, from business consulting to headhunting and recruitment. We have extensive experience in finding talented professionals, for a variety of industries, especially in the IT sector.
We started with a dream: to create a Human Resources company with a strong, unique profile on the market, deeply shaped by our core values: commitment to performance, professionalism, a balanced approach and deep satisfaction for our clients.
From that moment, we nurtured special relationships and we continuously evolved, being flexible, but staying true to our values. We aim higher and higher and we invite you to EVOLVE with us!

Requirements

For our client, a global technology company undergoing a full-scale S/4HANA public cloud transformation, we’re seeking a SAP Functional Lead with deep expertise in at least two core modules (e.g., SD + MM or MM + PP) and strong end-to-end process knowledge across O2C, P2P, or Plan-to-Produce.

This is a strategic technical leadership role that blends solution ownership with people management. You’ll define architectural direction, guide fit-to-standard decisions, and mentor a compact but high-impact SAP team.

If you enjoy balancing solution ownership with team leadership, this could be a great fit.
