We are seeking an experienced SAP EWM Functional Consultant for a 12-month extendable contract supporting an SAP S/4HANA warehouse-management transformation. The role is hybrid, with three days per week onsite in either the Netherlands or Luxembourg.
Job title – SAP EWM Functional Consultant

Project focus
You will support the design, configuration, testing and deployment of SAP Extended Warehouse Management within an SAP S/4HANA transformation programme.
The assignment will focus on improving warehouse and logistics processes across areas such as inbound delivery, goods receipt, putaway, internal movements, replenishment, picking, packing, staging, goods issue and outbound delivery.
You will work closely with warehouse operations, business-process owners, SAP delivery teams and technical colleagues to translate operational requirements into practical EWM solutions. The role will also support integration with SAP MM, SD, PP, QM and, where relevant, SAP TM and warehouse automation systems.
The successful consultant will be involved through functional design, configuration, testing, UAT, cutover, go-live and hypercare. This is a hands-on project role rather than a general SAP support position.
