Safebox LLC provides strategic IT leadership, robust security, and operational excellence tailored specifically for mid-market enterprises. We are seeking a SAP Project Manager — SAP Activate / ALM (English Speaking - remote) to work with our MSP partner. The best candidate is an experienced SAP Project Manager who will provide IT project management services supporting upcoming SAP implementations — specifically, rollouts adding new companies to an existing, live SAP implementation. The PM will coordinate an experienced, already-in-place SAP functional and technical team, applying the SAP Activate methodology and ALM tooling (SAP Cloud ALM / Solution Manager) to drive workstream planning, fit-to-standard cycles, testing, cutover, and go-live for each new company rollout.
This is a coordination-and-delivery role on a brownfield template: the solution exists, the team is experienced, and the PM's job is disciplined execution of rollouts against the existing template — not greenfield design.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage end-to-end rollout projects adding new company codes / entities to an existing SAP implementation: planning, workstream coordination, milestone tracking, and status reporting
- Apply SAP Activate methodology across rollout phases (Prepare, Explore, Realize, Deploy, Run), including fit-to-standard workshop scheduling, backlog management, and quality gates
- Use ALM tooling (SAP Cloud ALM and/or Solution Manager) for project tracking, requirements/test management, and deployment orchestration
- Coordinate the client's experienced SAP functional, technical, and integration resources; manage dependencies across workstreams and with business stakeholders of the entities being onboarded
- Own test cycle planning (SIT/UAT), defect triage cadence, cutover planning, and hypercare coordination for each rollout wave
- Manage RAID (risks, assumptions, issues, dependencies), escalations, and change control; maintain clear documentation and steering-level reporting
- Align data migration, integration, and authorization workstreams with rollout timelines
Required Experience:
- 6+ years of IT project management with 3+ years managing SAP projects (implementation, rollout, or migration)
- Demonstrated working knowledge of the SAP Activate methodology — able to run its phases, deliverables, and quality gates in practice, not just name them
- Hands-on familiarity with SAP ALM tooling: SAP Cloud ALM and/or Solution Manager (project/task management, test management, deployment tracking)
- Direct experience with rollout projects adding entities/company codes to an existing SAP environment (brownfield template rollouts), including cutover and hypercare
- Experience coordinating experienced SAP teams they did not hire — earning authority through competence rather than org chart
- English proficiency sufficient for daily leadership of meetings, steering reporting, and written deliverables with US-based stakeholders
Preferred Experience
- SAP S/4HANA project exposure (greenfield, brownfield conversion, or rollout)
- SAP Activate certification; PMP, PRINCE2, or equivalent
- Experience with multi-country / multi-entity rollouts including localization considerations
- Manufacturing, distribution, or industrial-sector SAP environments
- Experience working in a subcontractor / MSP delivery structure with layered stakeholders
Tools / Technologies
- SAP Cloud ALM, SAP Solution Manager
- SAP Activate roadmaps and accelerators
- MS Project, Smartsheet, or equivalent; Jira or equivalent backlog tools; Excel-based tracking and reporting
Soft Skills
- Structured, proactive communicator — keeps a multi-workstream rollout visible to stakeholders at every level
- Comfortable driving cadence with senior SAP consultants who have strong opinions
- Calm under cutover pressure; disciplined with documentation, decisions, and follow-through
Work Schedule
- Full-time, aligned to US business hours; flexibility for implementation events in US Pacific and Hawaii–Aleutian time zones
- Overtime, weekend, and holiday work required during implementation and cutover windows
Work Location: fully remote
Engagement Duration
- Immediate start through February 1, 2027 (~7 months), full-time
