About the Role
We are seeking a proactive Supply Chain Applications Specialist to join our global logistics and supply chain centre in Dublin.
This role combines immediate hands-on functional application support with a clear pathway to lead critical IT and supply chain digitalization projects. Working closely with global Supply Chain and IT teams, you will play a key role in supporting daily business operations, optimizing system workflows, and ensuring the end-to-end reliability and scalability of our IT landscape.
While the primary focus will initially center on supporting our core ERP system (specifically Sales & Distribution), you will progressively expand your scope to cover broader applications, warehouse platforms, and continuous system enhancements down the line.
Key Responsibilities
- Application Support & Maintenance: Provide daily functional, reporting, and operational support to system users, addressing application issues and ensuring seamless supply chain operations.
- SAP SD Leadership: Serve as a subject matter expert for the Sales & Distribution (SD) module, assisting with configuration, order-to-cash workflows, and user support.
- Testing & Handovers: Organize and perform end-to-end user testing sessions, validate new system functionality, and guarantee smooth post-go-live support and handovers.
- User Training & Documentation: Prepare clear user documentation (manuals, process guides, requirements, test cases) and coordinate training for key business users.
- Project Management: Plan, coordinate, and implement strategic IT and supply chain projects on time, within budget, and to defined quality standards.
- Cross-System Integration: Oversee system change requests and digital transformation initiatives, collaborating with internal IT units, external consultants, and regional supply chain teams.
- Process Improvement: Identify system bottlenecks and suggest software improvements to streamline daily operations across warehousing and distribution.
Qualifications & Experience
- Experience: Minimum 5+ years of hands-on experience in SAP logistics modules, with a specific, strong focus on SAP SD (Sales & Distribution).
- Warehouse Systems (Bonus): Direct experience with Warehouse Management Systems (WMS/EWM) or warehouse automation/integration projects is highly desirable.
- Project Management: Demonstrated background coordinating or managing IT/system implementation projects, preferably within international or multi-site environments.
- Education: University degree in Economics, Business, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
- Technical Integration: Basic understanding of middleware platforms, APIs, or system integration concepts.
- Supply Chain Knowledge: Strong foundational understanding of core supply chain processes (order-to-cash, distribution, replenishment, and demand planning).
Practical Requirements & Soft Skills
- Location & Mobility: Ability to split work locations between the Dublin 1 city centre office and a primary warehouse facility near Dublin Airport. A full driver's license and access to a personal vehicle are strongly preferred due to location access.
- Notice Period: Availability to start quickly (short notice period preferred).
- Problem-Solving & Communication: Strong interpersonal skills to bridge the gap between technical teams and everyday business users.
- Proactivity: Self-driven with a continuous improvement mindset and high operational accuracy.
