Job Description
We are looking for a Finance Solution Architect to sit at the heart of our SAP transformation - bridging enterprise architecture with the finance domain as we accelerate our move to S/4HANA and modernise our wider ERP ecosystem.
This is not a purely advisory role. You will be hands-on, embedded within the SAP ERP team, acting as the trusted architectural authority for Finance. You will shape and deliver real solutions - from roadmap through to production - while keeping pace with innovations in AI, data, and cloud finance platforms.
If you thrive in complex, high-stakes environments and want your architectural decisions to have global impact, this is the role for you.
Key Accountabilities
Architecture & Technical Leadership
- Serve as the go-to Finance Architect for the embedded business function, guiding initiatives from concept through to live delivery
- Define and evolve architecture blueprints, standards, and platforms - grounded in real-world experience, not just theory

Solution Design
- Partner with IT Finance leaders and SAP teams to understand business constraints and design end-to-end solutions
- Drive architecture across Finance master data, domain-oriented data products, and AI-aligned data flows
- Ensure solutions align with enterprise standards while remaining practical and delivery-focused
Collaboration & Strategic Influence
- Work closely with domain leadership to shape Finance process, data, and AI strategy and roadmaps
- Provide structured, experience-based feedback to evolve enterprise governance models
- Act as a bridge between technical depth and business language - translating complex architecture into clear decisions
Knowledge, Experience & Capabilities
Core Technical Expertise
- Deep hands-on knowledge of S/4HANA Finance - including Central Finance (CFIN), Master Data Governance (MDG), SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC), and product costing
- Strong understanding of SAP BTP and its role in extending and connecting the finance ecosystem
- Experience with modern data architecture - including Databricks, SAP Datasphere, BW/4HANA, and embedded analytics
- Familiarity with Lean IX (enterprise architecture tooling) and Signavio (process modelling) is a plus
Data & AI Acumen
- Solid grasp of data modelling paradigms - analytical, domain-oriented, and event-driven - applied in large, multi-domain landscapes
- Genuine enthusiasm and growing knowledge of embedded AI, SAP Joule, and agentic AI - and how they reshape Finance processes
Critical success factors & key challenges
- Confident engaging with both business leaders and technical teams - credible, clear, and direct
- Comfortable holding a position and influencing decisions without direct authority
- Able to manage ambiguity, balance competing priorities, and adapt quickly in a fast-moving environment
- Customer-centric mindset - you understand what your stakeholders are trying to achieve and architect around that
