Supply-Chain Enterprise Architect

SUPPLY CHAIN PLANNING, SALES AND OPERATIONS PLANNING SKILLS (POSSIBLE SEARCH TERMS: SAP-SCM-APO (-DP.-SNP, -PP/DS), SANDOP, SAP, JDA, DEMAND PLANNING, SUPPLY PLANNING, DETAILED SCHEDULING).

Start date: ASAP

Period: 2.5 - 3 months

Required availability: minimum of 3 days/week;

Role: Senior Functional Consultant Supply Chain

Location: Amsterdam

Remote working: No remote working, any options of this need to be discussed with the Project Team

Level: manager/senior consultant

Profile: Experienced consultant/manager with a solid SandOP/SCP background, strong PM- communication - and stakeholder management skills. This role is not related to a specific technique like SAP, Oracle, but more from process point of view. A JDA profile would be a plus, but not a must (SAP (SCM/APO) expertise is fine as well).

Activities: Initiate detailed solution design discussions/activities in parallel to the current software vendor selection process. Key reason for this is that the current Level 5 processes defined are system agnostic and on quite a high-level still. ie a mapping between the processes defined and the application is yet to be done. At the same time, there seems to be a view/perception that after the software vendor (and later on the delivery partner) selection, they can start straight away with the so-called 'Construct/Build phase. Obviously, without having completed a detailed solution design this will be a challenge.
