This is a senior, hands-on role responsible for ensuring an enterprise SAP S/4HANA Finance, Business and Logistics solution, including SAP GRC Access Control, is securely designed, configured, implemented, maintained and reviewed.

• Lead the design, development, implementation and maintenance of SAP application security authorisations.
• Provide technical leadership and guidance to senior security consultants and wider project teams.
• Analyse and resolve complex S/4HANA application security issues.
• Design, build, test and document SAP security roles, authorisations and supporting processes.
• Define and implement application security controls, policies and procedures.
• Support security role implementation and ongoing role maintenance.
• Identify, assess and remediate potential Segregation of Duties (SoD) conflicts.
• Provide expert advice to management on security risks, issues and initiatives.
• Support audits, compliance activities and security incident investigations.
• Work closely with architects, developers, testers, functional teams and business stakeholders.
• Lead knowledge-transfer and handover activities to build internal capability.

About you

You will bring:

• Extensive experience designing, implementing and maintaining SAP S/4HANA application security authorisations.
• Strong experience building and managing security solutions within complex SAP environments.
• Hands-on experience with SAP GRC Access Control.
• Experience with SAP BTP security, including CIS, IAS and IPS.
• Strong knowledge of security role design, access controls and Segregation of Duties.
• Proven experience providing specialist technical advice across SAP security support and project delivery.
• The ability to lead, mentor and support other technical team members.
• Strong analytical, conceptual and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent stakeholder management, negotiation and communication skills.
• The ability to communicate complex security concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

A relevant tertiary qualification or industry certification would be well regarded but is not mandatory.
