**What Makes Us, Us

**Join some of the most innovative thinkers in FinTech as we lead the evolution of financial technology. If you are an innovative, curious, collaborative person who embraces challenges and wants to grow, learn and pursue outcomes with our prestigious financial clients, say Hello to SimCorp!

At its foundation, SimCorp is guided by our values — caring, customer success-driven, collaborative, curious, and courageous. Our people-centered organization focuses on skills development, relationship building, and client success. We take pride in cultivating an environment where all team members can grow, feel heard, valued, and empowered.

If you like what we’re saying, keep reading!

**Why this role is important to us

**Group IT keeps SimCorp running. The same discipline we bring to our clients' investment operations is applied to our own enterprise platforms. Workday and Salesforce are at the center of how we manage our people and client relationships.

As Senior Director, Enterprise Applications, you will own the strategy, governance, and operational health of Workday and Salesforce across the organization. You will serve as the primary accountable leader for these platforms, partnering closely with business functions to ensure secure, compliant, and reliable operations through your leadership team and subject matter experts.

This is a senior leadership position with high visibility across Group IT, P&C, and Sales, providing direct influence over the evolution of two of SimCorp's most business-critical enterprise platforms.

You will step directly into a strategic and business-critical transformation initiative: the migration of financial processes and data from Workday to SAP S/4HANA, with a planned go-live in January 2027. Success in this role requires the ability to quickly engage in data mapping, integration planning, stakeholder alignment, and cross-functional execution from day one.

**The organization consists of:

**

  • 5 individual contributors reporting directly to the role
  • 2 managers reporting directly to the role
  • 29 employees in total across the Enterprise Applications area

**What You Will Be Responsible For

**

  • Define and own the multi-year strategy, roadmap, and operating model for Workday and Salesforce, aligning platform capabilities and investments with business priorities and growth objectives
  • Establish and chair platform governance forums with P&C, Sales, Customer Success, and other key stakeholders to prioritize enhancements, integrations, releases, and investment decisions
  • Ensure the stability, performance, security, and availability of Workday and Salesforce through effective release management, testing, monitoring, and change control practices
  • Oversee the end-to-end integration landscape across Workday, Salesforce, SAP S/4HANA
  • Manage strategic relationships with software vendors, implementation partners, and managed service providers, including contracts, licensing, and commercial oversight in partnership with Software Asset Management
  • Own platform security and access governance, including role design, segregation of duties, periodic access reviews, and compliance with internal control requirements
  • Partner closely with Information Security, Risk, Compliance, and Internal Audit teams to ensure effective controls, timely remediation activities, and adherence to GDPR and other regulatory requirements
  • Drive continuous improvement and adoption of platform capabilities to increase business value, operational efficiency, and user experience across the organization

**What We Value

**

  • 10+ years of leadership experience in enterprise applications, with deep expertise in Workday and Salesforce, or solid hands-on experience in one platform combined with demonstrated leadership responsibility for the other
  • 5+ years of people management experience leading teams of platform owners, administrators, business analysts, or related application specialists
  • A proven track record of establishing and operating governance models for enterprise platforms in a global, regulated, or financial services environment
  • Solid understanding of enterprise integration architectures.
  • Experience managing SaaS vendors, software licensing, commercial agreements, and strategic partner relationships
  • Solid knowledge of data privacy, risk, and security frameworks, including GDPR, SOC 2, and ISO 27001
  • Effective stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively at both executive and technical levels
  • Workday and/or Salesforce certifications are considered an advantage

**Benefits

**Attractive salary, bonus scheme, and pension are essential for any work agreement. However, in SimCorp, we believe we can offer more. Therefore, in addition to the traditional benefit scheme, we provide a good work and work-life balance: flexible working hours and a hybrid model. And opportunities for professional development: there is never just only one route - we provide custom paths for professional development to support the direction you want to take.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
