About the role

We are seeking a Lead BW/4HANA Consultant – Procurement to provide technical and functional leadership across procurement, materials and services reporting within a large‑scale SAP transformation environment. This role focuses on ensuring enterprise reporting solutions are well‑designed, governed and trusted, supporting operational decision‑making, compliance and audit requirements.

Working closely with delivery teams, system integrators and business stakeholders, you will provide assurance and guidance across BW/4HANA‑based reporting solutions in S/4HANA landscapes. This is not a purely hands‑on development role. The emphasis is on solution design oversight, data credibility, governance, and ensuring reporting outcomes remain fit for purpose as platforms and data models evolve.

About you

• Extensive experience in senior or lead SAP BW/4HANA reporting roles within large, complex enterprise environments
• Strong functional understanding across procurement, materials management and services, including source‑to‑contract, procure‑to‑pay, inventory and supplier data
• Proven experience delivering or overseeing reporting solutions in S/4HANA environments, including ECC to S/4HANA transformations
• Demonstrated ability to provide technical leadership and assurance, reviewing data models, reporting logic, metrics and data lineage
• Deep understanding of procurement and materials metrics, with the ability to identify insights that are technically correct but operationally or audit‑misleading
• Strong stakeholder engagement and leadership skills, with experience guiding delivery teams or external partners and influencing outcomes across business and technology

What we offer

• Be recognised for your contribution, your thinking and your hard work, and go home knowing you’ve helped the world progress
• Attractive compensation that is aligned to the specialist nature and impact of the role
• Flexible working arrangements
• A safety-focused and inclusive working environment
• Career development to further your ambitions
• Ongoing individual wellbeing support
• Flexible working arrangements
• Be part of Rio Tinto’s global Modern ERP transformation, contributing directly to one of the organisation’s most significant multi‑year programs
• High‑impact contract role where your expertise helps shape the future of Planning & Reporting across a global enterprise

Where you’ll be working

You’ll join the Modern ERP Program — a multi‑disciplinary team bringing together technology, process, data and change specialists to reshape how work happens across Rio Tinto. We’re modernising a 20‑year‑old ERP system and redesigning core business processes to improve safety, efficiency and ignite innovation.

This work supports our people across global operations to spend less time on transactional tasks and more time on work that really matters. By simplifying and digitising how the organisation runs, the Modern ERP Program is creating the foundation for future productivity gains, smarter decision‑making and AI‑enabled transformation.
