What You'll Do

• Define the Manufacturing Quality ERP strategy: Establish the vision, roadmap, and priorities for quality-related ERP capabilities, including process standardization, data collection, system compliance, and continuous improvement.

• Drive cross-functional ERP collaboration: Work closely with business stakeholders, DT teams, and other ERP module owners, including Finance and Sourcing, to align requirements, manage dependencies, and deliver a cohesive end-to-end solution.
• Build alignment and secure decisions: Present ERP proposals, business cases, and improvement plans to the ERP Control Board, clearly communicating business value, risks, priorities, and expected benefits to gain stakeholder support.
• Contribute to enterprise-wide digital initiatives: Represent Manufacturing Quality in corporate programs, including end-to-end data lake development and enterprise data governance, while identifying opportunities to simplify processes and improve the value delivered by ERP solutions.

Preferred:

• Experience with quality-related functionality in a major ERP platform, such as SAP, and familiarity with MRP and manufacturing execution processes.
