• Experience analysing and resolving performance issues and complex system errors.
• Familiarity with SAP monitoring and administration tools such as HANA Cockpit.
• Experience with IT service management / ITSM processes.

• Confident communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Fluent German and English language
  
  

What’s On Offer

• Hybrid working across the Cologne / Bonn area with flexibility around your working arrangements.
• A permanent in-house position within a large and established SAP environment.
• Exposure to a broad range of technologies including S/4HANA, HANA, BTP, Fiori and cloud solutions.
• The opportunity to take ownership of complex SAP environments and contribute to major transformation projects.

This is a strong opportunity for an experienced SAP Basis Consultant who enjoys working across both day-to-day SAP operations and larger transformation projects.

You’ll have the chance to work across a broad SAP technology landscape, from system administration and performance optimisation through to S/4HANA migrations, cloud technologies and SAP transformation projects, making this a varied role rather than a purely operational Basis position.
