Team Lead Functional Analyst (all genders)

What you'll do

As Team Lead Functional Analyst, you will act as the Chapter Lead for Functional Analysis, providing both disciplinary leadership and methodological governance for your team.

Your responsibilities include:

• Team Leadership & Development: Providing horizontal leadership to the Functional Analyst team, overseeing personal skill development, coaching, and managing capacity allocation across various value streams.
• Methodology & Standards: Setting and enforcing best-practice methodology standards for the chapter, including process modeling (BPMN 2.0), agile requirements engineering, user story writing (Jira/Confluence), and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) protocols.
• Strategic Governance: Empowering your team to act as "The Bridge" that effectively translates business pain points into structured functional specification documents (FSDs) while strictly enforcing Fit-to-Standard and Clean Core principles to prevent unnecessary custom complexity.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partnering seamlessly with Business Product Owners (who prioritize the "WHAT & WHY"), SAP Consultants (The Solution), Solution Architects (The Gatekeepers), and App Engineers (The Build) to ensure a unified end-to-end delivery lifecycle.
• Process Integrity: Ensuring your team upholds strict Segregation of Duties (SoD) guidelines and four-pillar controls during process design (e.g., keeping functional analysis strictly separated from system configuration, master data creation, and security mapping).
• Transformation Stewardship: Driving the organizational shift from reactive project delivery toward proactive product ownership, helping the business eliminate shadow processes and friction points across boundaries like Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, and Record-to-Report.

• Proven experience in a leadership or chapter lead role , with a strong passion for mentoring, team development, and resource management.
• Deep methodological expertise in BPMN 2.0, Design Thinking, process decomposition , and defining end-to-end test scenarios.

• A solid understanding of core business domains such as accounting, supply chain, procurement, or digital retail.
• Exceptional diplomatic and analytical facilitation skills ; the confidence to constructively challenge business requests and guide stakeholders toward standard solutions.
