Job Description:

As we work to transform and optimize Mars, a new program has been mobilized by the Mars leadership team. The program is focused on the design and implementation of SAP S/4HANA in Mars across Segments (Petcare, Corporate, Snacking & Food). Much more than a simple “Lift and Shift,” this program will undertake a major process simplification and harmonization scope as we digitally transform our business.

The program will focus primarily on eight mega process areas: Finance, Source to Pay (procurement and vendor mgmt.), Plan to Fulfill (manufacturing and distribution), Lead to Cash (order processing and payment), Governance, Engage to Consume (marketing), Idea to Market (R&D), and Recruit to Retire (HR). This program requires a Technology and Transformation Team for delivering the technical foundations and operational readiness of the S/4HANA Transformation

What are we looking for?

  • Have profound knowledge of testing management including performance test processes and standards

  • Experience in gathering non functional requirements in complex large SAP transformation projects

  • Excellent understanding of S/4HANA product roadmap

  • Be very well organized with experience in effectively setting deadlines, and assigning responsibilities followed by monitoring, summarizing data, and communicating across various stakeholder groups ensuring clear ownership is established for all activities

  • You need to have attention to detail and coordinate with Test Factory and external partners.

  • Have team player attitude and hunger to develop new professional skills combined with proactive, development-minded, and goal-focused attitude to work

  • Excellent documentation, visualization and presentation skills

  • Have experience working with System Integrator and Business Integrator, 3rd parties

What will be your key responsibilities?

  • Live and exemplify the Five Principles of Mars, Inc. within self and team.

  • Strategic Leadership & Governance: Define, develop, and own the enterprise-wide performance testing strategy aligned with the SAP S/4HANA transformation roadmap and satellite system integrations. Establish governance frameworks, standards, and policies for performance testing across multiple teams and vendors. Ensure performance testing objectives align with business priorities, compliance requirements, and overall quality goals. Lead cross-functional collaboration to integrate performance testing seamlessly into the development lifecycle and continuous delivery pipelines.

  • Reporting & Analysis: Prepare and present test reports and analysis to stakeholders, providing insights into the quality of the SAP Landscape. Ensure integration of performance testing tools and results intoContinuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (Deployment) pipelines and reporting frameworks

  • Tools: Experience in testing tools (Tricentis NeoLoad, JIRA, SNOW, eCATT, SAP Solution Manager, AzureDevOps, Cloud ALM or equivalent such as HP/MF ALM) for test management

What can you expect from Mars?

  • Work with diverse and talented Associates, all guided by the Five Principles.

  • Join a purpose driven company, where we’re striving to build the world we want tomorrow, today.

  • Best-in-class learning and development support from day one, including access to our in-house Mars University.
