I rescue SAP commodity, trade, risk, and S/4HANA transformation programs.
What I'm looking for
I deliver SAP commodity, trade, risk, and S/4HANA solutions through Element One GmbH, often stabilising complex programs under pressure. My work spans SAP GTM, GTS, Commodity Management, TRM, ACM, Central Finance, and S/4HANA transformations for trading, agribusiness, energy, metals, mining, chemicals, and logistics organisations.
In current engagements, I lead the commodity workstream for a greenfield S/4HANA RISE implementation for cocoa trading entities in Malaysia and Indonesia, and support hydrocarbon and energy trading as an SAP CM, GTM, and TSW subject-matter expert. I also own end-to-end Order-to-Cash across four integrated systems and 12 company codes for a global logistics operator, where I helped reduce financial close by around three days and cut billing exceptions by around 40%.
I've built commodity pricing and risk solutions supporting billions in annual traded volume, including 30+ CPE pricing routines for crude and refined products and risk-reporting enhancements that moved reporting from T+2 to intraday. I’ve also resolved SAP TM failures affecting approximately 3,500 daily shipments, reducing freight-planning effort by around 40% and annual transport spend by approximately EUR 21 million.
I bring early hands-on SAP Business AI experience, piloting Joule, BTP machine-learning services, and MCP-based agentic integration for contract, pricing, risk, and trade-compliance processes. Across 30+ years and more than 10 countries, I combine functional leadership with ABAP, integration, Fiori, migration, and clean-core delivery.
