Manager Intake Management

Kforce has a client that is seeking a Manager Intake Management in West Palm Beach, FL. Responsibilities:

• Serve as the single point of entry for all SAP enhancements, projects, and complex inquiries, explicitly excluding standard break/fix incidents
• Categorize every incoming request into the CoE's defined service tiers: Foundational (Risk/Compliance), Operational (Process Velocity), or Transformational (Strategic Growth)
• Route validated requests to the appropriate CoE leads, such as the Sales Product Lead or Master Data Architect, for technical sizing and backlog integration
• Partner with business requestors-often non-technical field or finance leaders-to unpack their surface-level "wants" and identify their true operational "needs"
• Enforce a standardized intake framework by requiring requestors to define the problem statement, the impacted BPO cluster, and the expected ROI (e.g., hours saved, revenue accelerated, errors reduced) before any technical resources are assigned
• Identify duplicate requests across different operating companies (OpCos) and consolidate them into a single, standardized enterprise requirement
• Maintain the master CoE Demand Funnel to provide the CIDO and VP of Process Improvement with a transparent, real-time view of what the business is asking for versus what the CoE actually has the capacity to deliver
• Prepare and present the validated intake backlog to the IT Steering Committee and Architectural Review Board (ARB) for final executive approval and funding
• Actively reject or redirect requests that violate the enterprise "Clean Core" strategy, offer negative ROI, or can be solved through process training rather than system configuration
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Business Administration, or a related technical field; MBA or advanced degree strongly preferred
• 7+ years of progressive experience in IT demand management, SAP governance, or strategic business analysis within a large-scale enterprise environment
• Proven ability to influence executive stakeholders and lead IT steering committees to align technical roadmaps with business objectives
• Expert-level capability in decoding complex business challenges into actionable technical requirements and high-impact SAP solutions
• Deep expertise in business case development, ROI modeling, and value realization tracking for enterprise-level technology investments

• PMP (Project Management Professional), CBAP (Certified Business Analysis Professional), or SAP S/4HANA certification highly desired
• Exceptional communication and negotiation skills, conflict resolution, and the ability to influence without direct authority
• Proficiency with Jira, Confluence, or similar project management and documentation platforms
