About the Role

We are seeking a strategic Application Product Manager to own and drive the lifecycle of enterprise Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) applications. This role serves as the bridge between business stakeholders and IT, ensuring enterprise platforms are aligned with organizational priorities, user needs, security standards, and long-term strategy.

You will lead roadmap development, vendor coordination, system enhancements, and value realization for major enterprise systems, including ERP and EAM platforms. This is a high-impact role focused on governance, delivery discipline, adoption, and measurable business value — not hands-on development or direct people management.
