The opportunity

As part of our growth strategy, Hitachi Energy has engaged in a multi-year project (Reiwa) to upgrade our core ERP systems to single-instance SAP S/4HANA, standardize our IT application landscape, and digitize our business processes to meet the needs of our expanding business

Within the Business Unit (BU) High Voltage Products (HV), we are creating a BU HV SAP Center of Expertise (CoE). The goal is to work closely with Local Business Process Owners (LBPOs) in the business hubs, organize the work of all our Key Users, drive system deployment and utilization to its full potential, and prioritize harmonized requirements from the business towards IT teams/Hitachi Energy’s global SAP CoE

The BU HV SAP CoE will support all High Voltage factories and service units globally to optimize the value of our SAP investments by leveraging best practices to enhance end-user experience, assisting local teams with training and issue resolution, and identifying opportunities for system enhancements and process improvements

For our newly created BU HV SAP CoE, we are searching for suitable candidates
