• Evaluate and translate business requirements into system designs, offering guidance and recommendations to optimise cost control and manufacturing processes.

• Liaise between onshore stakeholders and the offshore technical team, ensuring alignment, quality, and accountability in delivery.

• Challenge and validate effort estimates or timelines from offshore colleagues when necessary, maintaining project integrity and efficiency.

• Collaborate with finance, manufacturing, and IT teams to ensure smooth integration between Product Costing, Controlling, and other SAP modules.

Hard Skills (Technical):

• Deep understanding of SAP CO, with strong emphasis on Product Costing (PC).

• Familiarity with S/4HANA Finance and Manufacturing processes.

• Ability to perform cost analysis, variance analysis, and configuration within CO-PC.

• Knowledge of related components (CO-PA, CO-OM, ML, FI integration) beneficial.

• Experience working with offshore development and support teams.

• SAP Certification (CO or S/4HANA Finance) advantageous.

Soft Skills (Interpersonal):

• Strong client-facing communication and stakeholder management abilities.

• Capable of translating technical detail into business language and vice versa.

• Persuasive and confident in solution recommendation and negotiation.

• Able to challenge offshore teams diplomatically yet assertively to maintain delivery standards.

• Effective intermediary between business, architects, and execution teams.

• Structured, analytical mindset with high ownership and follow-through.
