Your role and responsibilities
As an S2P Fieldglass Implementation Expert, you will support the replacement of IBM legacy tools (CSA, SPI and Contingent Labour on IBM Blockchain) and introduce SAP Fieldglass. The transition will happen in waves; thus, you will provide continuous legacy application support (routing and configurations) to Procurement buyers. Knowledge of as-is contingent workforce management tools will enable you to participate in the implementation of SAP Fieldglass globally, to provide education to the buyer and supplier operations, and to configure the new tool as per inputs with the aim of automation and hands-free operation.
As a team member, your primary goal during the very first weeks is to interlock with senior team members and set up learning goals / on-the-job training sessions.
