What I'm looking for

I seek senior leadership roles driving global IT delivery and ERP transformation, with focus on SAP S/4HANA, infrastructure excellence, vendor management, and scalable, cost-effective solutions in a collaborative, growth-oriented organization.

I am a results-driven IT leader with 35 years of experience in global delivery management, ERP implementations (SAP S/4HANA, Oracle), infrastructure, sourcing, inventory and vendor management, and pre-sales. I have led multi-site SAP S/4HANA greenfield implementations, enterprise architecture design, and delivery for manufacturing and FMCG environments, achieving multi-site go-lives and measurable process improvements.

I excel at building and mentoring cross-functional teams, managing third-party suppliers, and aligning IT strategy with business goals. My accomplishments include implementing SAP BTP integrations, e-invoicing and payment integrations, logistics and vendor portals, and driving cost-effective, scalable IT operations across global enterprises.
