Our partner is a global SAP consulting firm with deep expertise across Consumer Industries, delivering transformation programmes for some of Europe's best-known retail and consumer brands. As we scaling their Retail practice, they are looking for a senior leader who can take it to the next level.

The opportunity:

This is a build-and-grow role. You'll take ownership of the SAP Retail business unit across Europe — driving revenue, shaping strategy, and expanding the footprint with new and existing clients. You'll sit at the intersection of delivery leadership, client advisory, and business development, acting as a trusted partner to C-level stakeholders while growing a high-performing team around you.

What you'll be doing

• Owning P&L and growth strategy for the Retail practice, with full accountability for revenue, margin, and pipeline

• Acting as trusted advisor to senior client stakeholders, deepening relationships and identifying new transformation opportunities
• Leading proposals, solution workshops, and deal shaping as the retail subject-matter expert
• Developing joint go-to-market strategies with key technology partners
• Representing the practice externally — through thought leadership, publications, and industry events

What we're looking for

• A proven track record of growing a SAP retail-focused practice, business unit, or client portfolio from the ground up — not just running an existing one
• Experience building and mobilising teams alongside business growth, ideally with the ability to bring existing relationships or talent with you
• Deep SAP consulting experience within Retail or Consumer Industries, spanning delivery, transformation, and managed services
• Strong commercial acumen — comfortable owning P&L, pipeline, and margin performance
• Executive presence and the ability to influence senior stakeholders, both client-side and internally
• Experience operating within a global consulting or technology services environment

Why this role

This is a genuine leadership opportunity to shape the direction of a growing practice — not step into something already built. You'll have real autonomy, visible executive support, and the chance to leave your mark on the business as it scales.
