About The Role
We are seeking an experienced SAP Functional Lead with deep expertise in Fleet Management (FLM) and/or Transportation Management (TM) to join a high-profile defense transformation program in the Middle East.
The successful candidate will own end-to-end solution design and delivery within their functional domain, leading a team of SAP consultants and serving as the primary interface between the implementation team and the defense ministry client.
This is a senior, client-facing leadership role that requires both deep technical depth in SAP FLM/TM and the gravitas to manage stakeholder relationships in a defense environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and manage the FLM/TM functional domain from design through go-live, owning all deliverables within the agreed project timeline
- Define solution architecture for fleet and transportation processes, ensuring alignment with SAP best practices and defense-sector requirements
- Conduct workshops, requirement-gathering sessions, and fit-gap analyses with the client's business and technical stakeholders
- Supervise and mentor functional team members, monitoring day-to-day performance and quality of output
- Collaborate with technical, security, and other functional domain leads to ensure integrated, end-to-end solutions
- Engage with the authorization team to establish and implement appropriate security models within the FLM/TM domain
- Drive issue resolution across implementation, testing, and upgrade cycles
- Review and provide input to shared project deliverables including UAT plans, configuration documents, and cutover strategies
- Monitor system performance post-go-live and lead fine-tuning activities to ensure peak operational performance
- Participate in change request assessment and document justification for scope changes
Education
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, MIS, Engineering, or equivalent from a reputable institution
- SAP Certification in a relevant module (PM, EAM, TM, or equivalent) — mandatory
- Business-level proficiency in both Arabic and English — mandatory
Experience
- 15+ years of SAP experience with deep functional expertise in FLM (SAP PM/EAM fleet application) and/or SAP TM
- Minimum 5 years of SAP implementation experience within defense, military, or government ministry environments — this is a hard requirement
- Proven track record of leading functional teams on large-scale SAP programs
- Hands-on experience with SAP Activate methodology across the full project lifecycle
- Strong understanding of SAP integration points across adjacent modules: MM, FICO, HR, BI
- Knowledge of SAP security models and products (SSO, IDM) from an integration and governance perspective
- Familiarity with ITIL practices (Incident, Problem, and Request Management)
