SAP Technical Architect – S/4HANA, Basis & Azure
£700–£750 per day | Inside IR35 | Initial 6 months
Hybrid working: 2–3 days per week in Newcastle upon Tyne
TrueNorth are supporting a large UK organisation delivering a major SAP S/4HANA transformation across a complex, business-critical operational estate.
We are looking for a hands-on SAP Technical Architect to take end-to-end ownership of the live SAP landscape. This is not a purely strategic or whiteboard-based architecture position. It requires someone capable of understanding how the estate operates in practice and resolving issues across infrastructure, platform and application layers.
The role
You will hold the complete technical picture across SAP S/4HANA, the remaining Business Suite estate, Azure infrastructure, Basis, HANA, environments, interfaces, security and connected applications.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
When an incident crosses multiple teams or suppliers, you will take ownership, establish the root cause and drive it through to a permanent resolution.
Key responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end technical view of the SAP estate
- Oversee SAP infrastructure, hosting, Basis and HANA services
- Manage capacity, performance, availability, resilience and disaster recovery
- Assure environment strategy, system copies, refreshes and transport management
- Lead complex cross-team incident and problem resolution
- Review technical designs for security, supportability and operability
- Challenge systems integrators and hosting partners when required
- Support SAP security, access and audit readiness
- Own technical cutover activity and support go-live weekends
- Improve monitoring, documentation, alerting and automation
