Description

For us, the best' is never good enough, because nothing stays the best' forever. The fastest runner is always overtaken. The tallest building is always surpassed. The biggest ship is always superseded. We believe there's a more worthwhile ambition than wanting - or claiming - to be the best'. We are determined to get better and better because that's an unending ambition. And it makes us alert, innovative and self-critical.

We help our clients achieve better products for their customers - and better benefits for themselves. So every time we undertake a project, we continually ask ourselves hard questions. Can we do this more cost-effectively? Can we do this faster? Can we enhance the design? Can we improve on the performance? Can we increase the benefits for client and customer? And can we achieve all these advantages at the same time?

By asking such questions we find positive answers. And those answers are the foundation of our growing global reputation.

We are currently looking to recruit a Senior SAP Lead Consultant role for MP&L (PP/iPPE/APO-PPDS & Material Logistics), to support our continued growth in this territory.
