Airbus is embarking on one of its most critical industrial and supply chain integrations to date as we adsorb vital Tier 1 structures supplier—into our global Supply Chain and Logistics organization, our primary focus is securing business continuity and mitigating operational risk. Central to this monumental effort is the expansion of our Enterprise Resources Planning (ERP) system, replacing legacy tools with a unified SAP S/4

HANA digital ecosystem. We are looking for a Change Specialist based in Belfast who combines battle-tested change management expertise with a forward-thinking mastery of AI technology to steer this high-stakes integration into the future.

As a Change Engineer you will strategically architect and drive the deployment of ERP S/4

HANA across the newly acquired Belfast site, which focuses on the A220 wings and A220 mid fuselage components. Your mission is to seamlessly integrate these complex aerostructures operations into the core Airbus organization, transition 100% of the impacted scope to our common system, and secure production ramp-ups while safeguarding the daily continuity of our global supply chain.

• Strategic Change Leadership:
  Architect, own, and execute the localized Change Management Plan for the Belfast site integration. Define the "Case for Change" tailored to a transitioning Tier 1 supplier environment and ensure total business readiness across highly complex supply chain and manufacturing operations.
• Training Strategy & Content Governance:
  Oversee and own the development of comprehensive documentation and high-quality learning materials using SAP Enable Now, ensuring alignment with the progressive rollout of the new S/4
  
  HANA platform across the Airbus Belfast Site.
• Deployment & Hypercare Orchestration:
  Design the global deployment framework locally and lead "Train the Trainer" initiatives to ensure flawless end-user adoption among hundreds impacted employees. Structure and lead the post-implementation hypercare phase, establishing robust "How Do I" support governance.
• Project Management:
  Manage complex modifications within the classical “waterfall” environment and own the capability to shift to an agile governance (manage complex modifications within SAFe/Agile sprint cycles, seamlessly synchronizing content development with ambitious integration timelines).
• High-Level Stakeholder Synergy:
  Serve as the primary liaison and strategic bridge between the Belfast integration team, local executive operations and the core ERP Change Team, leveraging high-level networking to secure organizational buy-in during a sensitive M&A transition.
• AI-Driven Transformation:
  Champion the use of AI and data analytics to predict deployment risks, analyze macroeconomic business impacts and automate predictive reporting within the integration change pipeline.
