SAP MDG Functional Architect

Summary

SAP MDG Functional Architect

Location : Chicago, IL

Duration : 12 MOnths

About the Role

At Mars, our data is as essential as our iconic brands. We are seeking a strategic SAP MDG Functional Architect to lead our Master Data Governance initiatives. In this highly functional and strategic role, you will own the "why" and "what" of our master data processes.

You will serve as the bridge between business strategy and technical reality—designing pure governance frameworks, crafting comprehensive proposals, and securing stakeholder buy-in. Once a proposal is approved, you will provide a seamless hand-off to our IT execution team (the hands-on-keyboard developers) to build the solution. If you are a visionary thinker who excels at process design, documentation, and stakeholder alignment within the SAP ecosystem, we want you on our team.

Key Responsibilities

Stakeholder Management: Act as the central liaison between business leaders, data stewards, and IT execution teams. Build relationships, manage expectations, and drive consensus across diverse global functions.
Proposal Creation & Advancement: Lead the end-to-end creation of master data governance proposals. Define the scope, business value, governance rules, and functional architecture required for success.
Executive Presentation: Translate complex MDM strategies into clear, compelling presentations. Educate stakeholders on the "reasons behind the processes" and secure executive buy-in for new data governance initiatives.
Execution Handoff: Compile exhaustive documentation and populate all necessary requirements to seamlessly transition approved proposals to the technical execution team for development.
Process Architecture: Design and standardize pure governance workflows and master data processes, ensuring alignment with Mars’ broader enterprise architecture (specifically SAP MDG and CFIN).

Qualifications & Skills

Pure Governance Expertise: Deep, proven experience in Master Data Governance (MDG) with a focus on defining rules, standards, and data quality metrics.
Strong MDM Foundation: Extensive knowledge of Master Data Management principles. You must deeply understand MDM processes, lifecycles, and the fundamental business reasons that make them necessary.
SAP Ecosystem Mastery: Strong functional experience and knowledge of SAP MDG and SAP Central Finance (CFIN).
Exceptional Documentation & Presentation: Top-tier ability to document complex functional requirements and present them persuasively to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Strategic Leadership: Proven track record of key stakeholder engagement, proposal creation, and advancing initiatives from concept to approval.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Ability to effectively bridge the gap between business strategy and technical execution, ensuring the development team has everything they need to succeed without requiring you to be hands-on-keyboard.
