About The Role

FDM is a global business and technology consultancy seeking a SAP Solution Owner to work for our client within the healthcare sector. This is initially a 3 month contract with very good prospects to extend and will be a hybrid role that will be based in London.

The Digital and Tech Solution Owner: Innovate to Market plays a critical role in ensuring our client's Technology Platforms enable their enterprise processes to be designed, governed, and operated in a consistent, scalable, and future fit way.

Our client is seeking a Digital and Tech Solution Owner to lead the design, delivery, operation and continuous improvement of a global technology platform that supports end-to-end business processes across functions and markets. Sitting at the heart of a major transformation programme, this role will drive the move from fragmented legacy ways of working to integrated, standardised and digitally enabled processes that support growth, unlock organisational capacity and maintain compliance and operational excellence.

Acting as the technology owner and key decision-maker for the enterprise, you will partner with Business Process Owners to break down functional silos, ensure technology decisions deliver value across the whole organisation, and champion the adoption of standard market-leading capabilities. The successful candidate will play a pivotal role in shaping scalable, future-ready solutions, eliminating unnecessary customisation and enabling faster delivery of business value through globally aligned technology platforms.
