Position Summary:
We are looking for an experienced Senior SAP Project Systems (PS) Consultant to support large-scale manufacturing and capital project management operations at a high-tech manufacturing equipment company. The consultant will play a key role in implementing, configuring, and optimizing SAP PS (and closely related module integrations) to manage complex manufacturing capital projects, equipment installations, upgrades, and maintenance lifecycle - from initial budgeting and planning through execution, costs, and reporting.

- Work with cross-functional stakeholders (engineering, manufacturing operations, supply chain, procurement, project management, finance, service/support) to translate business processes and requirements into SAP PS design.
- Integrate SAP PS with related SAP modules (e.g., MM, PP, FI/CO, PM, QM) to support end-to-end project lifecycle - from procurement of parts, manufacturing of equipment, assembly, testing, packaging/warehousing, to final delivery, installation, and ongoing support.
- Provide support for capital project cost controlling, variance analysis, capital capitalization, asset tracking (fixed assets), budgeting vs actual reporting, change management and project closure.
- Participate in process optimization initiatives: help standardize project and manufacturing-equipment lifecycle processes globally, improve transparency in project cost/asset tracking, support scalability for growth (e.g., new manufacturing facilities, global footprint).
- Provide training, documentation and support to internal stakeholders and global teams to ensure consistent use of SAP PS and best practices.
- Troubleshoot SAP PS issues, support system enhancements, and implement continuous improvements in project system workflows to align with evolving business needs (e.g., new product lines, equipment upgrades, sustainability tracking, CAPEX management).
Required Qualifications:
- Proven experience implementing SAP Project Systems (PS) in a manufacturing context, ideally within capital-intensive, high-tech, or industrial manufacturing industries.
- Strong understanding of manufacturing operations, capital equipment procurement/production lifecycle, fixed asset management, cost accounting / cost controlling, capex vs opex management.
- Experience integrating SAP PS with other SAP modules (e.g., MM, PP, FI/CO, PM, QM) in end-to-end process flows.
- Ability to gather requirements, lead workshops with technical and business stakeholders, map business processes, configure SAP, and deliver high-quality documentation and trainings.
- Solid project management skills, including planning, execution, milestone tracking, risk management, and governance.
- Strong communication skills - able to liaise across functional teams (engineering, finance, operations, supply chain) and across geographies (if global manufacturing footprint).
Ideally, experience with global manufacturing firms, tool/equipment manufacturing, or companies supplying capital-intensive industrial equipment.
