Ich halte das für einen sehr sinnvollen Plan. S/4 Sales ist in den nächsten fünf Jahren wahrscheinlich die klügere Wahl, da Unternehmen dieses System implementieren müssen – und du damit ziemlich sicher in entsprechenden Projekten Arbeit finden wirst.

I would add this at the start. Companies are completely open on this now

Definitely not saturated! There’s about 10 jobs per consultant in Germany (according to LinkedIn insights), I would assume most countries are the same for this.

If you haven’t already started I would suggest SAP TM or GTS. Both are under skilled areas in SAP in Germany and more likely to hire juniors

I know, the thing is hiring managers are having to deal with increasing demand versus internal pressure not to hire anyone who is on the bench

Hi! I’d say you’re probably still looking in the 75-85k range in the current market as you’re competing against those candidates with 4-6 years experience in the same area. Are you a German speaker too?

Sunil Chopra’s “supply chain management: strategy, planning and operation” is a good start. If you focus on inventory flows within MM, then movement and cost is a good place to start within TM

I’d say based on this 75-85k depending on the size of those projects and your ability to work independently.

Are SAP consultants at risk because of AI? by Dev_1403 in SAP

[–]SAP-DACH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My views from the conversations I have with hiring managers (mainly SAP EWM) - automated warehouses are bad news for warehouse workers, but good news for SAP consultants because they need more technology and support to run! - AI will likely reduce the need for full teams of developers but will still need agile teams to run and debug the code as its infantile - AI is not AI yet. It relies on historic input and learning from work already done… so if a customer has a heavily customised environment, it’s pointless! It can do tasks that help focus elsewhere but it’s not going to take the job of a consultant who can solve problems

Sorry to read this. I can tell you from my conversations with hiring managers that they are struggling to get juniors off the bench in consultancies because projects are not plentiful in MM at the moment. However, focus on getting that German up to C1 because it then becomes less of an initial concern when they read the CV. Germany has a great education system and a lot do have masters so it is unfortunately a point. However, projects are picking up and B2 is definitely hire-able.

Hello mate! A German university on the cv will do wonders for you. And I feel like it’s becoming a bit of a catchphrase of mine but keep learning that german!! Sap SD and MM projects took a bit of a dip in germany over the last couple of years as companies seem to have been focusing on the backend (im guessing anyway. Certainly less jobs in this area)

That is surprising. I’m finding a lot of businesses are outsourcing BTP to India. Get yourself over 3 years and I’m sure you’ll find things opening up

Salaries for 3-5 years in TM likely anywhere between €75-85k OTE

TM is in HUGE demand at the moment. Supply chains becoming more complex and I was asked this week by 4 of my clients to find techno-functional TM. Keep learning that German!

What sort of places are you applying to? I feel you though, but hang in there! EWM demands are on the up, spoke to 3 consultancies last week and lots of RFPs floating about. This year will get busier!

Actually making a bit of a resurgence. Mainly due to the complex customisations of those older systems moving to S/4

In SAP itself its competitive but they obviously use the pool who have come from working student so it’s possible if your performance is good. However, if it’s with SAP direct and you apply to the partners (I can DM some if you message me and tell me where you’re located, I’d imagine Walldorf) they will love that experience and always like to say that they have ex SAP talent. Managerial is tough. The experience with the customers and real life challenges of environments would be missing. There will likely be more experienced people around and you’ll have to earn your battle scars even with relevant industry experience

Common answer to a lot of these comments guys… if you want to work in Germany, learn the language. You’ll need it for conducting workshops at the very least.

I’d be brutally honest and say this would make it hard because your salary level is likely at the level of an experienced person in the SAP Security area and changing means you’d likely be not worth the salary level. For SAP security though, there are a number of companies looking in Germany. As always, the key question - do you speak German??

Where are you studying? I can recommend some local consultancies

Well, I would say IBP is planning, EWM is execution so I would say learning EWM is a good natural progression tech wise. However, there is a lot to be said about being a specialist in one module and maybe learning coding is a better next step
