About the Role As SAP Test & Release Manager, you will lead the end-to-end test and release processes for our SAP S/4HANA environment – including integrations with satellite systems and third-party applications. You’ll take ownership of planning, coordination, and execution across test phases and releases within business-critical areas such as Finance, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Sales. While the role is strategic in nature, it requires a solid understanding of ERP systems and regulated environments to ensure that changes – whether new features, patches, or upgrades – are delivered in a validated, controlled, and audit-ready manner. You will work closely with stakeholders across compliance, quality, IS/IT, and business functions to ensure testing and release are seamlessly integrated into the ERP implementation and beyond. Key Responsibilities Test Management: Define and implement SAP testing strategies, plans, and standards. Coordinate all phases of testing: unit, integration, UAT, regression. Manage test environments and ensure data integrity during testing. Oversee defect tracking, test traceability, and documentation. Release Management: Own and maintain the SAP release calendar in collaboration with stakeholders. Plan and coordinate deployments, go-lives, and post-release support. Ensure all releases are timely, low-risk, and fully documented. Drive stakeholder signoff processes and risk mitigation. Governance & Compliance: Ensure compliance with internal controls, audits, and change management policies.
