• Own and govern the complete Order to Cash lifecycle across all four commercial divisions.
• Define, document, and maintain standardized end-to-end O2C processes, policies, and controls.

Commercial & Cross-Functional Leadership

• Partner with Sales, Commercial Operations, Finance, Credit, Supply Chain, and Customer Service to align execution with commercial strategy.
• Balance customer experience, revenue protection, and operational discipline.
• Drive collaboration and decision-making across divisions; prevent local optimization at the expense of enterprise outcomes.

• Ensure O2C controls support audit readiness, revenue recognition, and financial integrity.
• Act as the business authority for O2C-related changes within S/4HANA.

S/4HANA & Systems Partnership

• Own business requirements for the O2C domain within S/4HANA.
• Partner with ICT to ensure system configuration enforces approved business processes.
• Prevent unauthorized changes, manual workarounds, or process bypassing.
• Participate in release planning, testing, and readiness for O2C changes.

Performance Management & Continuous Improvement

• Lead O2C process maturity initiatives and digital transformation efforts.
• Champion automation, simplification and efficiency opportunities including workflow, EDI, customer self-service, and AI-enabled transaction processing
• Define and monitor key O2C KPIs, including order cycle time, billing accuracy and timeliness, dispute volume and resolution time, Days Sales Outstanding (DSO), and cash application effectiveness.
• Drive root-cause resolution, not symptom fixes.

Team Leadership & Capability

• Define role-based capability and training requirements for O2C execution.
• Ensure training completion, adoption, and sustained process discipline across divisions.

• 8+ years of progressive experience in Order to Cash, Commercial Operations, or related process leadership.
• Proven experience managing end-to-end O2C processes in a multi-division or complex commercial environment.

• Exposure to transformation initiatives (ERP implementation, process redesign, shared services).
