Description

As the business transition to S4 Hana over the next couple of years, they are looking for individuals to join and take responsibility for BAU on the existing SAP ECC system whilst some of the team transition over to the migration.

Profile
The successful candidate must have a deep understanding of either finance processes or sales & logistics business processes. It is also really important that the successful individual has a functional understanding of SAP ECC either on the FICO side or with the sales & logistics modules- delivering small incremental change rather than major projects.
My client are ideally looking for someone from a Product Ownership background however, they recognise that there are transferable skills from a Project Manager/ Business Analyst role. If you have carried out any of these roles in relation to SAP, this could be for you!
This role is suited to someone who has worked in an international business before. If you haven't got international experience but have worked in a large corporate environment within the UK, my client will absolutely still consider your application!
