Enterprise digital transformation and SAP/cloud services for large organizations across Europe
Sopra Steria is a 51,000-person European consulting and digital services firm with a heavy SAP footprint (Integration Suite, Analytics Cloud, S/4HANA across the stack) now accelerating toward cloud-native and event-driven architectures—adopting Kafka, Flink, Spring, and Azure Kubernetes while retiring legacy Java and Jenkins infrastructure. The hiring mix skews engineering and data (622 and 166 roles respectively) against consulting and product, reflecting a shift from traditional services toward platform modernization and data governance delivery.
Notable leadership hires: Technical Lead, Project Director, Practice Lead, Data Lead, Business Transformation Lead
Sopra Steria delivers end-to-end digital transformation services to large enterprises and public-sector organizations across Europe and beyond. The company generates €5.7 billion in annual revenue and operates in nearly 30 countries, with particular strength in SAP implementation, cloud strategy, and cybersecurity. Its active project portfolio spans SAP migrations (including S/4HANA), government security assessments, data platform buildouts, cloud transformation initiatives, and regulatory compliance automation (AML, OZG). Internal pain points—legacy application modernization, cloud cost optimization, data governance, and compliance—directly mirror the challenges it solves for clients.
