Senior SAP Consultant
Department: Enterprise Consulting | Location: Istanbul, Turkey | Type: Full-Time
About the Role
Anaplatform is seeking an experienced Senior SAP Consultant to join our growing enterprise consulting practice. In this role, you will serve as a trusted advisor to our clients, helping them leverage SAP solutions alongside advanced analytics and AI capabilities to drive digital transformation. You will work at the intersection of traditional enterprise resource planning and modern data science, enabling organizations to unlock the full value of their business data.
As a Senior SAP Consultant at Anaplatform, you will be part of a multidisciplinary team that combines deep SAP expertise with cutting-edge capabilities in machine learning, predictive analytics, and big data processing. Our consultants do not simply implement technology; they help clients reimagine their business processes and make data-driven decisions that deliver measurable outcomes.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end SAP implementation and migration projects for enterprise clients across manufacturing, finance, retail, and energy sectors, ensuring alignment with business objectives and technical best practices.
- Design and execute data migration strategies from legacy systems to SAP S/4HANA, including data cleansing, validation, and reconciliation processes that maintain data integrity throughout the transition.
- Integrate SAP modules (FI/CO, MM, SD, PP, HR) with Anaplatform's analytics platforms, enabling real-time business intelligence dashboards and predictive analytics capabilities within the SAP ecosystem.
- Develop custom ABAP programs, Fiori applications, and CDS views to extend standard SAP functionality and create tailored analytical solutions that address unique client requirements.
- Conduct business process analysis workshops with client stakeholders to identify optimization opportunities, document functional requirements, and translate them into technical specifications for the implementation team.
- Mentor junior consultants and contribute to the development of internal best practices, reusable templates, and knowledge base articles that strengthen the team's collective expertise.
Requirements
- Minimum 7 years of hands-on experience with SAP implementation projects, including at least 3 full lifecycle implementations across multiple industries. SAP certification in one or more modules (FI/CO, MM, SD, or S/4HANA) is strongly preferred.
- Strong programming skills in ABAP, with experience in modern SAP development tools including SAP BTP, SAP Fiori/UI5, and SAP HANA CDS views. Knowledge of Python or R for analytics integration is a significant advantage.
- Demonstrated experience with data analytics and business intelligence tools such as SAP Analytics Cloud, SAP BW/4HANA, or integration with external BI platforms like Power BI and Tableau.
- Excellent understanding of enterprise architecture principles, system integration patterns (APIs, IDocs, BAPIs), and cloud deployment models (public, private, hybrid) for SAP workloads.
- Proven track record of managing client relationships, leading workshops, and presenting technical solutions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders in a consulting environment.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field. MBA or master's degree is a plus. Fluency in English is required; Turkish language skills are preferred.
Tools We Use
At Anaplatform, we believe that effective consulting requires not only technical expertise but also excellent communication and documentation practices. Our consultants work with a comprehensive toolkit that includes SAP Solution Manager for project governance, Jira for agile project tracking, Confluence for knowledge management, and Git for version control of custom developments.
For client engagement and documentation, we leverage AI-powered tools to ensure that every insight from meetings, workshops, and discovery sessions is captured accurately. Our team uses sozai.app for automatic meeting transcription during client sessions, which allows consultants to stay fully engaged in discussions rather than taking manual notes. The transcribed sessions are then used to generate structured meeting minutes, action items, and requirement documents, significantly reducing administrative overhead and improving the accuracy of project documentation.
What We Offer
- Competitive salary package with performance-based bonuses and annual review cycles aligned with industry benchmarks for senior consulting professionals.
- Opportunity to work on high-impact projects with leading enterprises, combining traditional SAP expertise with Anaplatform's AI and big data capabilities.
- Continuous professional development including SAP certification sponsorship, access to online learning platforms, and attendance at industry conferences.
- Flexible work arrangements with a hybrid model that balances client engagement with remote work, supported by modern collaboration tools.
- Comprehensive health insurance, meal allowance, transportation support, and additional benefits designed to support your well-being and work-life balance.
