CRH's Americas Materials division is the leading integrated supplier of aggregates, asphalt, ready mixed concrete and paving and construction services in North America. Our operations span North America with over 29,000 employees at close to 1,660 locations in 45 US States and 2 Canadian provinces.

Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced SAP Manager to own the Hire to Retire (H2R) process landscape, spanning SAP Success Factors Employee Central (EC), Employee Central Payroll (ECP), and Time Management leveraging Workforce Software. The ideal candidate is a strong business partner who can align HR technology initiatives with strategic workforce objectives and drive digital transformation, backed by deep hands-on expertise across core HR data management, payroll processing, time and attendance, and the multiple hands-on integrations connecting Success Factors to S/4

HANA and other internal and external systems.

This is a business-facing role: the successful candidate will spend significant time directly with HR, Payroll, and Workforce Management leaders, understanding how they work today and co-designing how they should work tomorrow. As process owner, this person will lead discovery and design workshops, map current- and future-state processes, and drive continuous improvement across the hire-to-retire value chain. The role also leads a team of SAP H2R functional resources, driving system enhancements, hands-on configuration, and ensuring seamless integrations across the SAP and HR technology ecosystem, and enabling accurate workforce reporting through SAP Datasphere and SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC).

Key Responsibilities (Essential Duties and Functions)

To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily.

Business Process Design & Improvement

• Act as the primary business-facing process owner for H2R — spending regular, recurring time with business leads in HR, Payroll, and Workforce Management.
• Partner directly with business stakeholders to understand gaps and pain points, translate business needs into functional requirements, and design scalable, efficient H2R processes.
• Define and track KPIs and process performance metrics jointly with business owners, and report progress back to them on a regular cadence.
• Establish and run a standing business process governance forum (e.g., monthly H2R process review) to surface emerging issues, prioritize backlog items, and keep process design decisions transparent and business-led.

Driving Design Workshops & Business Engagement

• Own end-to-end workshop planning and delivery: define objectives, identify the right stakeholders, build the agenda, and drive the session to concrete, documented decisions and next steps.
• Plan and facilitate requirements-gathering and process design workshops with cross-functional stakeholders across HR, Payroll, and Workforce Management — driving discussions toward decisions rather than open-ended brainstorming.
• Run fit-gap and solution design sessions with business and technical teams, presenting options, trade-offs, and recommendations, and driving alignment on process decisions and configuration approaches.
• Use visual facilitation techniques (process maps, whiteboarding, journey maps) in live sessions to help business stakeholders see and agree on the proposed design in real time.
• Manage constructive conflict in workshops — surfacing and resolving competing priorities between functions (e.g., HR, Payroll, and Workforce Management) to reach a workable, business-endorsed outcome.
