SAP Data Migration Lead

We are looking for an experienced Data Migration Lead to support a major transformation programme involving the migration from a Legacy ERP environment to SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud. This role will take ownership of coordinating the data workstream to ensure existing data is prepared, migrated, and validated successfully within the new SAP landscape. Working closely with both business and technology stakeholders, the successful candidate will guide migration activities across the full life cycle - from early data discovery and preparation through to transformation and validated loading into the target system. Data migration activities will be delivered using internal tools and established processes. This is a senior role within the programme and will act as the central point of coordination for data-related migration activities, ensuring appropriate controls, data quality standards, and readiness across the implementation phases.

• Lead the delivery of the data migration workstream within a wider SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud implementation.
• Coordinate activities relating to data preparation, cleansing, mapping, and validation.
• Support the structured migration of data from Legacy systems into the SAP environment.
• Work closely with functional, technical, and business stakeholders to resolve migration challenges.
• Manage and coordinate a team responsible for data preparation and migration tasks.
• Help implement governance, controls, and validation checkpoints throughout the migration life cycle.
• Provide clear communication on migration progress, risks, and data readiness.

We are looking for candidates who have:

• Experience supporting or leading data migration activities within SAP S/4HANA programmes, ideally within a Public Cloud environment.
• Understanding of SAP data structures and the movement of data between Legacy and SAP systems.
• Experience working with migration tooling or ETL-style data transformation processes.
• Exposure to managing or coordinating teams responsible for migration deliverables.
• Experience supporting data quality, validation, and reconciliation activities.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to work across both technical and business teams.
• Familiarity with structured programme or project delivery environments.
