Summary

With my many years of SAP experience across many SAP modules and expert-level know-how in SAP BW/BI/SEM, I see myself ideally as a go-between and coordinator between the business departments (BW/BI source systems) and the Business Warehouse.

Alongside the technical skills that are a natural foundation, I would like to present my soft skills, gained over the years on numerous projects: teamwork, a systematic approach, proactive and goal-oriented communication, adaptability, tact, and professional crisis management to achieve the intended success in a wide range of situations.

Know-how: SAP BW/BI, SAP BW/BI training.

My goal is to work independently in an SAP BW/BI environment (project work, maintenance/operations).

Thank you in advance for your interest in me. I look forward to a productive and long-term collaboration.
