Sr. Analyst, IT - SAP Security Controls

Job Summary This position supports SAP Security, Access Management, and IT General Controls on SAP S/4HANA. The role executes SAP-specific ITGCs, ensuring monthly and quarterly controls are performed accurately, on time, and with the evidence required to withstand internal and external audit scrutiny. As a functional expert in the domain, the Sr. Analyst partners with analysts and vendor partners and supports the maturation of the controls program as it expands to other SAP products. Essential Duties and Responsibilities SAP Security & Access Management Manage SAP role design, provisioning, and de-provisioning aligned to business roles and least-privilege principles. Design and maintain the SoD ruleset within our current toolset (e.g., Fastpath); own SoD analysis, mitigation, and remediation across SAP applications. Own Firefighter (Emergency Access) governance — request, approval, monitoring, and log review. Support integration of SAP security events with the enterprise SIEM. SAP ITGC Ownership and Execution Serve as the control owner and executor for SAP-specific ITGCs, including quarterly User Access Review, monthly Termination Review, monthly Privileged User Access Monitoring, monthly Firefighter Log Review, monthly Critical/Administrative Access Review, quarterly SAP Standard Accounts Review, quarterly Role Review, quarterly Audit Log Review, and quarterly Client Open Changes Review. Ensure control execution is timely, within the correct review period, with proper reviewer approval, evidence retention, and documentation to support audit and SOX requirements. Maintain and improve control templates to ensure accuracy of formulas, scoping, and reviewer instructions; standardize and version-control templates across execution cycles. Track and remediate SOX/ITGC findings from internal and external audit; ensure remediation is systemic rather than reactive. Partner with Internal Audit and external auditors on requests, walkthroughs, IPE (Information Produced by the Entity) validation, and evidence review. Support the expansion of controls coverage to other SAP products (e.g., SAP Ariba, SuccessFactors) as they come into audit scope over time. Collaboration and Delivery Direct and validate work performed by external AMS partners, ensuring quality and alignment with the broader SAP architecture. Collaborate with business stakeholders, cross-functional teams, and vendors to ensure successful project delivery and ongoing system support. Minimum Qualifications 7+ years of hands-on SAP Security experience with strong SAP role design, provisioning, and access-management depth. Experience with SAP GRC (Access Control 12.0) is a strong plus. Demonstrated hands-on experience owning and executing SAP-specific ITGCs at the control-owner level — not just supporting audit teams. Direct experience with User Access Reviews, Termination Reviews, Firefighter Log Reviews, Change Management, and Audit Log Reviews required. Track record of remediating SOX/ITGC audit findings systemically — closing recurring issues rather than patching them each cycle. Experience with control evidence retention, IPE validation, reviewer sign-off standards, and defending controls in front of external auditors. Working knowledge of Fastpath (preferred) or comparable tools such as CSI, Pathlock for automated control monitoring, access reviews, and SoD analysis. Experience with controls execution for other SAP products such as SAP Ariba and SuccessFactors is a huge plus — these products will be added to the control scope over time. Demonstrated ability to lead — mentoring junior team members, setting standards, and directing internal and external contributors on security and controls work. Strong communication, stakeholder management, and change management skills; ability to lead through influence across all organizational levels.
