Senior Solution Advisor Specialist at SAP

What you'll bring




• You have strong experience independently engaging customers throughout the sales cycle, with specialist depth in S/4HANA Procurement. You assess what customers need, position SAP competitively, and bring credibility across the full stakeholder spectrum — from procurement directors to C-suite executives. You build trust through clear communication, bring emotional intelligence to every interaction, and solve complex problems with a customer-focused mindset.


• You conduct thorough client needs assessments, uncovering the business drivers behind each procurement transformation and shaping your advisory approach accordingly.


• You deliver compelling S/4HANA Procurement demonstrations, translating solution capabilities into differentiated business outcomes that guide customers through their technology adoption journey.


• You combine storytelling and competitive positioning to articulate SAP's value clearly — adapting your message for audiences ranging from finance leaders to IT decision-makers.


• You map customers' AI journeys, aligning intelligent procurement features to their readiness and helping them realise value from automation, spend analytics, and AI-powered sourcing.


• A practical approach to AI — you use automation and AI tools in daily workflows, design effective prompts, prototype solutions, and take responsibility for the quality and accuracy of AI-generated outputs.


• A degree in business, technology, supply chain, or a related field, or equivalent experience. A master’s degree is an advantage.

• You'll independently lead advisory engagements at critical points in the sales cycle — from initial discovery through to decision and adoption — across strategic procurement accounts in Emerging Africa.


• Engage enterprise customers at key sales cycle stages, owning the advisory narrative from first conversation through to solution commitment.


• Develop and deliver compelling demonstrations and business stories that illustrate differentiated outcomes, from spend visibility and process automation to supplier collaboration and procurement compliance.


• Collaborate with customers and partners to co-create an agreed-upon SAP vision, translating solution capabilities into a shared procurement transformation roadmap.

Where you belong




• You'll join SAP's Solution Advisory community in East Africa, embedded in a regional team driving cloud ERP and intelligent spend management adoption across Emerging Africa. Based in Nairobi, you'll support enterprise customers across the region — from initial procurement transformation conversations through to live solution adoption. Demand for RISE with SAP and S/4HANA Cloud is accelerating across the continent, and you'll be a key part of the team making that happen. You'll work closely with account executives, value advisors, and partners to shape how SAP's procurement portfolio lands in new and growing markets.
