This job is for you who are motivated by being part of a major SAP S/4HANA implementation and digital transformation, where your expertise helps turn strategy into scalable finance solutions. We are looking for a SAP Finance Architect with strong functional expertise and architectural mindset. At Blue Water Shipping, you will take architectural ownership of SAP Finance within an ambitious S/4HANA Public Cloud programme—while working in an environment built on trust, collaboration, and professional freedom.

At Blue Water Shipping, IT is more than technology. It is how we enable the business to operate efficiently, meet financial requirements, and scale globally. We work closely with the business, take responsibility for our solutions, and believe that strong results are created through cooperation, transparency, and continuous improvement. You will join a global organisation with strong Danish roots, where professionalism, long-term relationships, and a pragmatic mindset shape the way we work every day.

About the role

As SAP Finance Solution Architect, you act as the design authority for SAP Finance solutions across our SAP landscape. As part of BlueCore, we are implementing SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud, following fit-to-standard and clean-core principles.

You will define and own the SAP Finance solution architecture for our S/4HANA Public Cloud rollout, ensuring that finance capabilities support strategic business goals while remaining scalable, standardised, and future-proof. The role suits an experienced SAP Finance professional with a strong architectural mindset, who enjoys working at the intersection of business strategy and technology.

Your responsibilities include:

• Owning and driving SAP Finance solution design across end-to-end finance processes
• Translating business requirements into scalable, fit-to-standard SAP solutions
• Acting as architectural authority in projects, enhancements, and major changes
• Ensuring alignment between finance process design and overall enterprise architecture
• Contributing to the build-up of internal SAP Finance application capability post go-live

We play as a team

You will work closely with finance stakeholders, IT colleagues, integration specialists, and external partners. Collaboration is a natural part of everyday work at Blue Water Shipping, and success is created through shared responsibility and mutual trust. Knowledge is shared openly, decisions are made together, and different perspectives are valued as a strength in delivering robust solutions.

We play to win

You succeed in this role when SAP Finance is experienced as a stable, reliable, and business-enabling platform. Your architectural decisions ensure a successful implementation, upgrade-safe solutions that support both daily operations and long-term ambitions. By combining deep finance process knowledge with a clean-core mindset, you help the organisation realise the full value of SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud—while building confidence and trust across the business.

Your background

You are an experienced SAP Finance professional who understands finance processes end to end and enjoys taking architectural responsibility. You are comfortable working across business and technical stakeholders and motivated by designing solutions that are both robust and pragmatic.

We expect that you bring:

• Solid SAP Finance experience
• Deep knowledge of end-to-end finance processes
• Experience with SAP S/4HANA (Public Cloud, Private Cloud, or On-Premise)
• Experience leading design decisions or acting as senior consultant or solution lead
• The ability to translate business strategy into robust SAP solutions

Ideally, you also have:

• Experience with SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud or GROW with SAP (preferred, not mandatory)
• SAP Finance / S/4HANA professional certification
• Knowledge of fit-to-standard and clean-core principles
• Familiarity with CBC, SSCUIs, and SAP Cloud ALM
• Exposure to APIs, integration patterns, or SAP BTP

Practicalities
