About The Position

Noveon is seeking a high-aptitude SAP Business Process Analyst to join our IT team. This role is a critical business partner primarily responsible for supporting the stability, compliance, and continuous improvement of our Materials Management (MM) and Production Planning (PP) workstreams within SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud. As Noveon prepares for future growth, this position will be instrumental in ensuring our supply chain and manufacturing processes are efficient and SOX-compliant. While the primary focus is on the "Make-to-Stock / Make-to-Order environments " and "Procure to Pay" cycles, this role will also provide secondary support for Sales (SD) and Finance (FI/CO) to ensure seamless end-to-end integration across the enterprise.

Requirements

3–5 years of functional experience (S/4HANA required; Public Cloud preferred).
Deep functional understanding of MM (Materials Management) and PP (Production Planning).
Strong working knowledge of SD (Sales) and FI/CO (Finance) integration points (e.g., Account Determination, Cost Centers, Sales Order requirements).
Familiarity with SOX compliance and IT General Controls (ITGC) within an ERP environment.
Exceptional ability to create auditable technical documentation and user training materials.
High standard of ethics and attention to detail, essential for maintaining inventory and financial compliance.
Ability to find the root cause of an issue rather than just applying a band-aid.
Excellent communication skills with the ability to build trust with both shop-floor operators and executive leadership.

Responsibilities

Resolving day-to-day functional issues for the Procurement and Production teams, acting as a primary point of contact for troubleshooting and process refinement.
Overseeing the accuracy of Master Data (BOMs, Routings, Material Masters) and ensuring MRP runs are optimized for production stability.
Identifying underutilized features in SAP Public Cloud to replace manual shopfloor or warehouse workarounds, improving overall data accuracy.
Acting as a secondary resource for Sales and Finance teams, assisting with order-to-cash or financial integration issues as needed.
Assisting in the design and execution of internal controls over inventory and procurement. Ensure that all system configurations in MM/PP adhere to Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) standards.
Partnering with the SAP Digital Transformation Manager to review user roles. Ensure sensitive processes (e.g., Purchase Order approval vs. Goods Receipt) are properly segregated to mitigate risk.
Serving as a key resource for auditors, providing evidence for inventory valuations, cycle counting logs, and procurement documentation.
Ensuring all system changes follow a formal, auditable process, including documented approvals and successful User Acceptance Testing(UAT).
Building and maintaining a library of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) specifically for warehouse and production-floor environments.
Leading onboarding and "refresher" training for both office-based users and shop-floor operators to ensure system proficiency.
Coordinating UAT for semi-annual SAP Cloud updates, ensuring that new manufacturing or logistics functionality does not disrupt existing controls.
