Epic Owner LMS - 20072

Role Summary

An experienced Epic Owner is needed for a major initiative to replace an existing Learning Management System (LMS) with a new group-wide SaaS solution. The solution will support the management of training, competencies and certifications, enabling both mandatory and business-driven learning needs to be managed in a structured manner.

A pre-study and target architecture have been completed. The assignment now focuses on translating this foundation into an actionable implementation plan and driving the initiative through delivery. The Epic Owner will provide structure, direction and momentum across business, HR, IT, architecture, information security and an external supplier.

Key Responsibilities

• Establish and lead the delivery structure for the LMS replacement initiative.
• Convert the completed pre-study and target architecture into an executable roadmap, priorities and implementation plan.
• Coordinate cross-functional stakeholders across business functions, HR, IT, architecture, information security and external vendors.
• Manage initiative dependencies, risks, decisions and follow-up activities.
• Drive alignment on HR master data, organisational structures, roles, access permissions and the future operating model for the LMS.
• Ensure that governance, decision-making and stakeholder anchoring are maintained throughout implementation.
• Provide ongoing communication and status reporting to the sponsor, steering committee and other key stakeholders.
• Set clear objectives and priorities to maintain delivery progress across parallel initiatives and dependencies.

Technical Stack & Requirements

• Experience implementing and managing SaaS solutions.
• Learning Management Systems (LMS) and enterprise learning platforms.
• HR systems, HR master data and organisational data structures.
• Identity and Access Management, including roles and permissions.
• Target Architecture and enterprise-level solution planning.
• Governance and Risk Management for large-scale system implementations.
• Vendor Management and coordination of external implementation partners.
• Project Management for complex business and IT transformation initiatives.

Qualifications & Experience

The ideal candidate has substantial experience as a senior project manager in large-scale business and IT transformation programmes. You should have a proven record of leading SaaS implementations and coordinating external suppliers within complex organisations involving numerous dependencies, stakeholders and parallel initiatives.

You bring a strong understanding of target architecture, governance, risk management and organisational anchoring when introducing group-wide systems. Experience in HR, competence development or organisational-support systems is advantageous. Experience from multi-country and multi-business initiatives, as well as SaaS implementations in regulated or otherwise complex operating environments, is also beneficial.

The role requires the ability to balance strategic perspective with operational detail, build and engage cross-functional teams, and communicate confidently with sponsors, management and key stakeholders. Fluency in both Swedish and English, spoken and written, is required.
