SAP Manager

I'm looking to speak with experienced SAP S/4

HANA Finance professionals for a senior Operations Finance Data Lead opportunity within a major global transformation programme in the pharmaceutical sector.

This is a key role sitting at the intersection of Operations Finance, SAP S/4

HANA and Data, with a particular focus on Product Costing, Inventory Valuation and Material Ledger.

You'll help shape how Operations Finance data is designed, governed and ultimately used within S/4

HANA - ensuring that the future-state solution works in practice for both operational finance processes and analytics.

• Leading data design across Product Costing and Inventory
• Providing SME expertise around Inventory Valuation and Material Ledger
• Supporting the transition from SAP ECC to S/4
  
  HANA
• Defining and embedding enterprise data standards and governance
• Assessing existing data structures and identifying harmonisation opportunities
• Supporting data cleansing, enrichment and migration activities
• Translating Finance process requirements into robust data requirements
• Ensuring data design supports operational reporting and analytics
• Working across global Finance, Data & Analytics and S/4 deployment teams
• Influencing senior stakeholders and helping drive adoption of the future-state design

• You'll have significant experience within Operations Finance, combined with strong SAP knowledge and a deep understanding of Finance data.
• In particular, you should bring strong experience across Product Costing, Inventory Valuation and Material Ledger, alongside an understanding of how these areas integrate with wider SAP processes.
• Experience working on a large-scale Finance or ERP transformation programme is important, while previous S/4
  
  HANA implementation experience would be highly desirable.
• Experience with in pharma, life sciences or healthcare, as well as Data Governance and Data Quality, would also be advantageous.
• This would suit someone who can bridge the gap between Finance, Data and SAP - someone equally comfortable getting into detailed data requirements and engaging with senior stakeholders across a complex global programme.
