What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a challenging SAP Controlling/PaPM role where I can own end-to-end costing and allocation design, deliver smooth month closing, and strengthen integrations, reporting, and audit readiness for global SAP transformations.

I’m an SAP CO–PS–PaPM consultant with around 15 years of experience delivering end-to-end implementations across ECC and S/4HANA, including brownfield, greenfield, and public cloud projects, plus global rollouts, demergers, support, enhancements, data migration, and upgrade programs.

I specialize in Product Costing and Material Ledger with actual costing (including split valuation, joint & by-product costing, and flowing standard/actual cost breakups to COPA), as well as PaPM cost allocation models (design, validation, scheduling, and JE post-back). I also bring strong hands-on project systems experience (revenue recognition and POC methods), complex SAP/non-SAP integration, and cutover readiness through master data upload and LSMW—supported by reporting expertise (FIORI, BOBJ, Teradata, Report Painter) and SOX-audit readiness for costing solution structures.
