At SOK IT, we develop, operate, and maintain the core systems of S Group. At S Group we run business of billions; in 2023 our sales before taxes were 14.2 billion euros in total. Behind this level of operation are our employees and reliable and secure core systems, which keep the wheels rolling daily and 24/7 in some cases. Thanks to SOK IT professionals, we have reliable points-of-sales and transactions up-and -running, HR solutions supporting the leadership and employee experience, and proper tools and systems in use for our employees so they can focus on their main expertise, whether it be serving customers or planning and making the decisions about the assortments and product categories, for example.

Currently, we are renewing S Group’s core systems to harmonize the IT systems and business processes related to assortment planning, procurement, and supply chain in our retail business sector. The renewal and roll-out means that the reliability of our SAP systems will be even more business-critical in the future. That’s why we are seeking a proactive and seasoned SAP Release Manager to oversee release processes for multiple SAP systems. This is a completely new role in our organization, and the role is permanent and full-time. Our office is located in Helsinki, Vallila, and we work in a hybrid setting. We hope to see you at the office on a monthly basis, at least. If you possess a robust understanding of SAP, release management, and testing practices and are adept at ensuring their implementation, you may be the ideal candidate for this role.

SAP Release Manager

As an SAP Release Manager, you’ll
  • Manage, plan, schedule and control the release process for multiple SAP systems to ensure successful deployment to production for all retail business areas. Currently we use SAP Solution Manager for version control.
  • Request necessary test cases and results from the responsible teams and interpret the implications of the results. We use Tricentis Neo Load (and also other tools) for performance testing, Tricentis Tosca for test automation and Tricentis Live Compare for change review.
  • Oversee the Change Advisory Board (CAB) and other change management forums.
  • Identify dependencies of changes, inform the right stakeholders, and coordinate the releases accordingly.
  • Schedule and inform the right parties about the hot fixes provided by SAP.
  • Do close cooperation inside SOK IT with Solution Analysts, QA Engineers and other technical SAP experts

What we hope from you
  • Previous experience working with SAP development and release processes
  • You are knowledgeable about Transfer Request and Solman functionalities
  • Analytical mindset and ability to navigate in a highly complex and business-critical system landscape
  • Ability to understand and work with multiple stakeholders
  • In work-related matters, you communicate fluently in English. Finnish language skills are seen as a plus

What we offer in return

On top of a challenging and diverse job description, and superb company benefits, this is what we offer in return:
  • Stable and flexible work environment based on cooperative values and principles.
  • An opportunity to improve and influence the daily lives of S Group’s employees and millions of our customers and co-op members.
  • Ownership. You’re creating services directly for the end-users. You’re not visiting a project; you own the product together with your team and team members.
  • As a big company operating in several different business fields (restaurants, hotels, retail, service stations and banking sectors both in brick-and-mortar and digital channels) we have a lot of diverse growth and job opportunities.
  • Workplace democracy. Our ways of working are not set in stone. Together we’ll continuously improve the ways of developing tools, products and services in the biggest private employer in Finland.
  • Reasonable workload. Our supportive community with its great ways of working, setting realistic expectations and the possibility of hybrid work all adds up to less stress for you.
  • Concrete and rewarding end-results, which you can experience yourself by using S Group’s services, when doing your grocery shopping, fueling or staying in a hotel.
  • Occupational healthcare, sports and culture benefit, lunch benefit in our staff restaurant, and access to the hobby and sports facilities in Ässäkeskus.

Our Process

If we were able to catch your interest, please apply for the role on Sunday 29.9.2024 the latest. If you’d like to discuss the role and/or working at SOK before applying, you can contact the hiring manager Veli-Mikko Ikonen (+358 50 378 3687) on Mon 16.9. at 10:30–11:30 and Wed 25.9. at 8:30–9:30.


Our interview process is both respectful and comprehensive. You’ll meet our recruiter Anna, hiring manager Veli-Mikko and your potential future colleagues. We’ll be discussing technical things as well as softer skills, validating your technical expertise and performing a light talent assessment. The aim is to ensure we can offer what you’re looking for, and to make sure you're the right person for the job. Despite the outcome we strive to make the process a positive one.

Looking forward to meeting you!
