o   Ensure compliance with German procurement laws, audit regulations, and ESG reporting requirements.

o   Configure and validate the MM–FI integration to ensure tax-accurate invoice processing from PO through to payment.

o   Advise on withholding tax, reverse charge mechanisms, and VAT recovery as applicable to the German entity.

o   Liaise with the client's local tax and finance teams to validate configuration against current German fiscal regulations.

  • Stakeholder & Partner Management

o   Coordinate across functional SAP streams (FI, MM, Ariba, VIM) and with external SI partners in a fast-paced environment.

o   Drive vendor and partner negotiations relevant to the S2P workstream.

o   Use data to support sourcing decisions and deliver measurable cost savings.
