New Foundations is Richemont’s multi-year transformation programme aimed at simplifying and aligning business processes and technology in preparation for the Group’s migration to SAP S/4HANA. The programme is designed to establish the organisational, governance and delivery foundations necessary for a successful, scalable and business-led ERP transformation. As Technical Manager, you will own the target technology architecture and shape the technology evolution path required to deliver Richemont’s SAP S/4HANA migration, ensuring a coherent, future-proof and sustainable enterprise landscape.
Tasks
- Own the target-state technology architecture and define the future SAP S/4HANA-centred landscape, including ERP core, satellites, integrations and extensions on SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) and third-party platforms.
- Translate scope and simplification decisions into a viable and scalable architecture blueprint, aligned with Group architecture principles and clean-core strategy.
- Define clear ERP boundaries, ensuring consistency between what is removed or simplified and what is rebuilt, extended or externalised.
- Own the integration and extensibility strategy, including application programming interfaces (APIs), middleware and event-driven patterns.
- Assess technical feasibility, dependencies and sequencing, anchoring ambition in technical reality.
- Prepare technology principles, architecture guardrails and the inputs required for Solution Design.
- Partner with product and technical teams to upskill on SAP S/4HANA and ensure decisions are grounded in technical reality.
Requirements
- Senior experience in large-scale ERP and platform transformations (SAP S/4HANA is a must).
- Proven track record in Technical Architecture in complex environments.
- Deep experience designing hybrid landscapes (ERP, satellites, data, integrations, cloud platforms).
- Comfortable engaging with senior technology and business leaders, including ExCo-level forums.
- Experience operating in international multi-entity or multi-brand environments.
- Strong mastery of SAP S/4HANA architecture patterns, clean-core principles and extensibility models.
- Deep understanding of integration architectures, APIs, middleware and SAP BTP.
- Ability to translate simplification and legacy constraints into forward-looking architecture choices.
- Strong analytical capability to frame technology trade-offs (standard vs flexibility vs cost).
- Structured decision framing, with a focus on long-term operability and scalability.
- Strong long-term and systems thinking.
- Comfortable holding the line on architectural non-negotiables.
- Credible authority with both technology and business stakeholders.
