Long Description
Alghanim Industries is a multibillion-dollar conglomerate with more than 30
businesses and one of the largest privately-owned companies in the Persian
Gulf region, predominantly in Kuwait. Its operations spread across 40
different countries.
The role will be based in Kuwait. The person will be part of the Digital
practice, predominantly focusing on the following business units:
o Safat Home - one of the leading home furnishing brands in Kuwait
o Slim Chickens
o Wendy’s.
Additional business units are part of the Digital practice, including Supply
Chain & Distribution and Gulf Trading Refrigeration Company (GRTC).
Alghanim Industries is currently experiencing a transformation that will
result in a shift from a “Project based” to a “Product based” organization, in
line with the most technology-advanced and agile companies at a global level.
In a product-based organization, employees are grouped around the product they
work on, rather than individual roles or attributes, working according to
agile methodologies. IT organizations and product developers co-create
products and services with the business, rather than simply collecting
requirements and executing the projects.
The SAP Lead Project Manager will report directly to the SAP Product Owner,
having overall responsibility for the entire project portfolio. This role will
directly manage a number of SAP functional consultants based in Kuwait and
India. You will further be expected to manage external third parties involved
in project delivery.
This individual will have good communication skills, strong analytical and
problem-solving skills as well as a passion for Retail. Strong presentation
skills are required, as well as the confidence to manage multiple stakeholders
from business teams, IT teams, external vendors and delivery partners. It is
expected that the individual is a keen follower of technology trends.
