About the Opportunity:
Our client, a leader in the Autonomous Technology industry, is looking for a skilled SAP Controlling (CO) Consultant to join their team for a 6 month engagement. This project involves designing, configuring, and implementing SAP CO solutions (focusing on Product Costing and CO-PA) to optimize controlling processes within a rapidly scaling manufacturing and automotive environment. This is a high-impact role that requires a self-motivated professional who can hit the ground running and deliver results quickly.
Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:
This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
- Design and Implement CO: Lead the design, configuration, and implementation of core SAP CO modules, including Product Costing (Standard & Actual), Material Ledger, and Profitability Analysis (CO-PA).
- Integration & Process Optimization: Ensure seamless integration across SAP modules (FI, MM, SD, PP) and drive process optimization in areas like costing runs and variance analysis for automotive operations.
- Stakeholder Collaboration: Collaborate with finance, manufacturing, and supply chain teams to gather requirements, analyze processes, and deliver tailored SAP CO solutions.
- Functional Specifications: Conduct workshops, prepare functional specifications, and guide ABAP/technical teams during the development life cycle.

We are looking for someone with a proven track record of successful contract engagements. The ideal candidate will have:
- 7 years of SAP CO functional experience with strong manufacturing domain knowledge.
- Deep expertise in Product Costing, Material Ledger, and CO-PA in manufacturing/automotive industries, along with a solid knowledge of S/4HANA Finance/CO. This isn't a learning role—you need to be a subject matter expert.
- Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and manage your own time effectively to meet project goals.
- Experience with at least 2 full-cycle SAP implementations, strong FI integration knowledge, and exposure to automotive costing models.
- Strong communication skills to provide clear and concise status updates to the project team, coupled with excellent problem-solving and stakeholder management skills.
