Global Professional Services Industry Advisor

SAP Global Industry Strategy Leader

At SAP, we keep it simple: you bring your best to us, and we'll bring out the best in you. We're builders touching over 20 industries and 80% of global commerce, and we need your unique talents to help shape what's next. The work is challenging – but it matters. You'll find a place where you can be yourself, prioritize your wellbeing, and truly belong. What's in it for you? Constant learning, skill growth, great benefits, and a team that wants you to grow and succeed.

In this role, you'll shape the future of SAP's global industry strategy, driving meaningful outcomes for customers, partners, and the broader ecosystem. You'll combine deep industry knowledge with solution expertise (SAP Cloud ERP, SAP Project & Resource Management, SAP SuccessFactors, and ideally SAP Fieldglass) to position SAP as the trusted partner for transformation.

You will:

• Own and execute global industry Go-To-Market strategies and align them with product, demand generation, and partner priorities.
• Engage directly with executives as a trusted advisor, sponsoring customer journeys, securing anchor deals, and ensuring long-term adoption and success.
• Scale industry expertise globally by creating enablement content, reference architectures, and best practices for internal teams and partners.
• Lead industry councils, customer communities, and co-innovation initiatives to capture feedback, influence product roadmaps, and drive thought leadership.
• Represent SAP externally with global stakeholders, analysts, and partners to strengthen market credibility.

Your work will directly accelerate customer growth, industry transformation, and adoption of SAP's cloud and AI innovations.

What you bring:

• 12+ years in industry strategy, Go-To-Market planning, customer engagement, presales, or consulting.
• Strong hands-on expertise with SAP Cloud ERP, SAP Project & Resource Management, SuccessFactors, and ideally Fieldglass.
• Background in a Professional Services or Engineering Services company using SAP — implementation or presales experience highly valued.
• Proven ability to engage executive stakeholders (C-suite), build trusted relationships, and influence global initiatives.
• Deep understanding of industry trends, digital transformation, and SaaS/cloud ecosystems.
• Strong communication, leadership, and collaboration skills with experience driving measurable business outcomes.

You thrive by combining strategic vision with execution, influencing across teams and geographies, and enabling others to succeed through your expertise.

Where you belong:

You'll join SAP's Industry Business Unit (IBU), a global, customer-focused team that bridges industry knowledge with solution innovation. Here, you'll:

• Collaborate with senior executives, global customers, and leading partners.
• Shape industry strategy, amplify SAP's voice in the market, and scale expertise worldwide.
• Work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment that values innovation, thought leadership, and co-creation.
• Grow your career through exposure to cutting-edge topics, global leadership platforms, and meaningful impact on customer success.

At SAP, your expertise and perspective will be valued, and you'll have the opportunity to help customers and industries run at their best.
