Role Summary

The SAP, Microsoft Dynamics & AI Practice Lead is responsible for establishing, leading and continuously developing the organisation’s SAP and Microsoft Dynamics consulting, solution architecture and enterprise AI innovation practice, including a substantive Singapore-based R&D mandate.


The role serves as a senior authority for enterprise business application architecture across SAP S/4HANA, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Power Platform and the integration services connecting these platforms. The incumbent will also lead applied research, experimentation and prototype development using SAP Joule, SAP Business AI, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Microsoft Copilot Studio, Azure AI services and related agent technologies. The incumbent will translate business requirements and R&D hypotheses into pragmatic target architectures and testable prototypes, promote fit-to-standard adoption, govern design quality, and guide delivery teams and implementation partners.


Working directly with the GM, SAP & Microsoft Dynamics COE, the Practice Lead will support service-line growth through customer engagement, presales solutioning, reusable offerings, capability development, workforce planning and delivery governance across APAC. The role will establish an R&D pipeline in Singapore, define measurable innovation outcomes, and progress selected concepts through discovery, proof of concept, pilot validation and transfer into reusable offerings or production-ready solutions.

Presales and Customer Solutioning

  • Lead customer discovery sessions, executive workshops, solution demonstrations and architecture presentations.
  • Translate customer needs into solution options, transformation roadmaps, high-level designs and implementation approaches.
  • Lead or support responses to requests for information, requests for proposal, solution estimates, statements of work and commercial assumptions.

  • Act as a trusted advisor to senior business and IT stakeholders throughout the opportunity and delivery lifecycle.
  • Own the transition of successful R&D outcomes into repeatable service offerings, reference architectures, reusable components, implementation playbooks, demonstrations and customer pilots.
  • Collaborate with SAP, Microsoft, universities, research institutes, start-ups and specialist partners where appropriate to accelerate research, validate approaches and transfer knowledge into the Singapore team.
