SAP S/4Hana Technical Delivery - ABAP & Functional

Technical Delivery Lead – SAP ABAP & Functional (FICO / SD / MM)

12 Month Fixed Term Contract | Hybrid | Occasionally required in London office

Salary to £75k + Bonus + benefits

We’re looking for an experienced Technical Delivery Lead to own the design and delivery of the ABAP and Core Functional workstream within a SAP ECC to S/4HANA migration. You’ll lead a blended team of ABAP developers and Functional Consultants (c.8 overall) across FICO, SD and MM , plus 3rd-party delivery partners.

This role is ideal for someone who began their career in ABAP and/or a Techno-Functional capacity , then stepped into leadership—someone who can confidently bridge functional design and technical build , and who understands how to get the most out of both Functional and ABAP resources.

What you’ll do

• Lead the end-to-end technical delivery of core S/4HANA functional and ABAP components — design, build, configuration, enhancement, and testing.
• Manage and coach a team of Functional Consultants and ABAP developers , ensuring clear alignment between process design and technical execution.
• Own the “translation layer” between functional requirements and ABAP delivery , ensuring build items are well-specified, feasible, and delivered to SAP standards.
• Partner with the Systems Integrator and business process owners to align functional design, technical approach, and business goals .
• Oversee workstream governance, change control, estimates, and delivery quality across functional and development activities.
• Ensure high-quality technical documentation, solution design artefacts, and traceability from requirements to build and test.

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience delivering SAP ECC and ideally S/4HANA migrations , with strong exposure to FICO / SD / MM .
• A background that started in ABAP or Techno-Functional work, progressing into delivery leadership.
• Strong understanding of the relationship between Functional Consulting and ABAP development —including how to structure specs, manage dependencies, and run integrated delivery.
• Confidence in guiding functional design into robust SAP solutions, balancing SAP standard vs. custom development.
• Excellent stakeholder management and leadership experience in complex ERP programmes.
• Solid grasp of technical governance, documentation, and change control.

If you’re delivery-focused, technically credible, and thrive on aligning Functional and ABAP teams into one high-performing workstream, we’d love to hear from you.
