Job description
Senior Functional Lead - Innovation & PLM
Global engineering business Flexible UK location, around 40% travel
Our client, a global FTSE-listed engineering business, is part-way through a once-in-a-generation SAP S/4HANA transformation. The programme is putting in place the core platforms that will run the business for the next decade. They're now looking for a Senior Functional Lead to shape how products are designed, engineered and managed across the new landscape.
The role
You'll be the senior functional lead for Innovation and Product Lifecycle Management. You'll partner with and deputise for the Product Domain Lead, and own the Concept to Launch value stream end to end.
You'll lead the design of PLM capability across Siemens Teamcenter and SAP S/4HANA Engineering, BOM and Material Master, getting engineering data flowing cleanly from design into manufacturing.
Working alongside the other domain leads and Enterprise Architecture, you'll:
- Set the domain roadmap, standards and governance
- Guide solution architects
- Shape data and integration patterns
- Hold the line on Fit-to-Standard and Clean Core principles
This is a strategic leadership role, not a hands-on build role, with real scope to step up into full domain leadership.
What you'll bring
- Experience as a functional lead or domain architect on a large-scale SAP S/4HANA implementation
- Deep PLM process knowledge across product lifecycle, portfolio management and EBOM/MBOM
- Hands-on experience with Siemens Teamcenter and SAP S/4HANA PLM and engineering modules, ideally with exposure to CAD (NX, Autodesk) and PLM integrations
- Familiarity with BPM tools such as Celonis or Signavio, and Agile delivery using Jira and the Atlassian suite
- The confidence to lead through ambiguity, influence across domains, and constructively challenge senior stakeholders
What's on offer
You'll get a competitive reward and benefits package, a broad health and wellbeing framework, and an inclusive culture that gives people the freedom to shape their own career path. You'll also join a programme with global visibility, at a point where your decisions will define how the business works for years.
