SAP Sourcing & Procurement Consultant

Lead with expertise, drive innovation.

Are you an experienced SAP Sourcing & Procurement professional ready to help organizations transform the way they source, procure and manage spend?

At Accenture the Netherlands, we are looking for an SAP Sourcing & Procurement Consultant who combines strong Source-to-Pay expertise with hands-on experience in SAP procurement technologies. You will work on complex transformation programs for leading national and international organizations, translating business requirements into scalable solutions that deliver measurable value.

This role is based in the Netherlands and offers a hybrid way of working. We are particularly interested in professionals with substantial exposure to the European market and experience working with EU-based clients, stakeholders or transformation programs.

What you'll do

• Advise clients on the transformation and optimization of their Source-to-Pay and procurement processes.
• Design and implement SAP-based sourcing and procurement solutions, particularly across SAP S/4HANA, SAP MM and SAP Ariba.
• Contribute throughout the implementation lifecycle, including blueprinting, requirements analysis, solution design, realization, testing and delivery.
• Translate complex business and procurement requirements into effective technology solutions.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary and international teams, client stakeholders and technology specialists.
• Support clients in selecting the right procurement technologies and approaches for their transformation ambitions, including SAP solutions and platforms such as Coupa, where relevant.
• Bring insights from your experience with European organizations and markets to help clients navigate complex, international transformation environments.

The new Experienced template calls for five core responsibilities followed by the “How We Reinvent” section.  I retained a slightly broader seven-point responsibilities section because the former vacancy contains several distinct SAP and Source-to-Pay responsibilities worth preserving.

How We Reinvent

At Accenture, our teams bring together deep industry knowledge and technology expertise to help organizations reinvent how they operate. You will work alongside consultants, SAP specialists, architects and other technology professionals to solve complex business challenges and turn new technology possibilities into tangible outcomes.

You will contribute to transforming clients' digital cores and procurement capabilities, combining functional Source-to-Pay knowledge with technologies such as SAP S/4HANA and SAP Ariba.

Our teams collaborate across disciplines, industries and geographies, supported by Accenture's global delivery network and technology ecosystem. This combination enables you to work on challenging transformation programs while continuously developing your expertise.
