At Airbus, we are not just defining the future of flight; we are fundamentally pioneering the next generation of aerospace production. This transformation requires a complete overhaul of our digital ecosystem, and we are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Integration Manager to lead this journey. Operating within the "Digital for Operations" department-the cornerstone of our industrial transformation-you will serve as an essential "translator/connector leader." In this pivotal role, you will bridge the gap between large-scale SAP architectures and strategic digital roadmaps, turning complex frameworks into tangible, effective realities on our high-pressure shop floors as we simplify, streamline, and unlock the full potential of advanced technologies. The modern industrial landscape presents immense challenges, from massive production ramp-ups to rapid technological acceleration and complex, cross-functional ERP deployments across diverse sites. To tackle these hurdles, you will join the Solution Management Team (SMT), a transversal, high-impact unit dedicated to strategic unblocking. Where process ownership is decentralized, fragmented, or unclear, the SMT provides the critical clarity, authoritative direction, and structural framework required to accelerate value capture. As a catalyst for solutions, you will function as part of an agile commando team tasked with structuring complex issues into actionable "Epics," arbitrating roadblocks, managing governance, and ensuring seamless operational delivery that turns obstacles into sustainable successes. Your primary mission in this role will be to lead the integration of our newly acquired Belfast activities into the Airbus ERP environment. As part of this critical Post-Merger & Acquisition (M&A) initiative, you will drive the transition of all legacy operational activities from their existing digital ecosystem into our state-of-the-art S/4HANA-based ERP architecture. If you possess the expertise to navigate high-stakes digital transformations and want to directly shape the future of aerospace operations, we invite you to join us.
