Jens Reichert
Last position:
Finance Transformation Director at Bauer Media Group
After several S/4 go-lives, structure, role clarity, and decision clarity were missing in Finance and IT; governance mechanisms, prioritization logic, and responsibilities were not defined well enough.
Unclear interfaces, high coordination effort, and inconsistent ways of working led to organizational instability and limited leadership and steering capability.
The existing operating model between Finance, Controlling, and IT was not working, which affected transparency, collaboration, and decision paths.
Designed the transformation and organization architecture for Finance and clarified roles, decision paths, and priorities.
Diagnosed and structured the Finance and IT organizations (DE/UK/PL), including collaboration, responsibilities, and interfaces.
Redesigned the Finance–IT operating model with a focus on governance, steering routines, and cross-functional collaboration.
Enabled leaders and teams, especially Global Process Owners, Key Users, and Finance Leads (systemic organizational development / leadership).
Steered the transformation portfolio, including clarity on risks, dependencies, and cross-functional decision processes.
Restored structural steering capability by clearly defining roles, decision paths, and priorities and anchoring them across the organization.
Strengthened governance and cross-functional collaboration in a systemic way - Finance, Controlling, and IT worked again in consistent, aligned structures; friction losses dropped measurably.
Harmonized working and communication logic, making coordination faster, more transparent, and less conflict-heavy.
Enabled the organization in a sustainable way, including the build-up of a strong Key User / Process Owner community and clearly defined steering routines.
Made the transformation structurally manageable - prioritized initiatives, clear risk and progress logic, and consistent decision formats increased execution speed.

About the technology
SAP in business systems
SAP is the core system many companies use to run finance, procurement, logistics, sales, HR, and reporting. It often sits at the center of day-to-day operations and connects to many other tools. Strong specialists know how to keep business processes stable while changing the system safely.
Common SAP areas
- SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANA support and rollout work
- ABAP development, reports, interfaces, and enhancements
- Fiori apps, authorizations, and user experience changes
- Integration with CRM, data, and warehouse systems
- Process design for finance, supply chain, and operations
When freelance help matters
Companies bring in SAP professionals for migrations, module rollouts, cleanup after old custom code, and urgent production issues. Freelancers are also useful when teams need extra hands for a short project or rare module knowledge. In Munich, this is common for firms with complex operations, shared service centers, or international SAP landscapes.
What strong specialists do
Good SAP specialists understand both the business process and the technical side. They can read existing customizations, test changes carefully, and work with key users without turning everything into jargon. They document clearly, protect data integrity, and know how to avoid breaking dependent processes.
Ecosystem and skills
SAP work often touches ABAP, Fiori, HANA, transport management, interfaces, and reporting tools. Depending on the project, specialists may also need experience with authorization concepts, data migration, and third-party integrations. The best people know where standard SAP is enough and where custom work is really needed.
Project fit and delivery
A clear scope helps a lot: module setup, troubleshooting, migration support, or process optimization. The right specialist can work remotely for analysis and configuration, then join on-site in Munich for workshops, testing, or go-live support when needed. Good delivery is visible in stable processes, clean handovers, and fewer surprises after launch.
Frequently asked questions
Curious about SAP? Here are the answers that come up again and again.
SAP is used to run core business processes such as finance, procurement, sales, logistics, production, and reporting. It is often the system that ties these workflows together, so changes in one area can affect many others. That is why companies look for specialists who understand both process and system behavior.
SAP is the vendor and ecosystem name, while ECC and S/4HANA are major product generations. ECC is the older landscape many companies still run, and S/4HANA is the newer core platform with a different data model and user experience. A strong freelancer should know which version the project uses and what that means for migration, custom code, and testing.
A good SAP specialist usually combines process knowledge with technical or functional depth. Depending on the project, that can include ABAP, Fiori, HANA, integrations, authorizations, testing, and data migration. The best candidates also communicate well with business users and can explain trade-offs in plain language.
For a small fix or a narrow support task, a focused SAP expert may be enough. For a migration, rollout, or complex integration, you usually need someone who has seen similar risks before and can spot issues early. The right level depends on scope, module complexity, and how much internal knowledge your team already has.
SAP is often chosen for large, process-heavy environments where standardization, control, and integration matter. Compared with lighter ERP tools, it usually offers deeper coverage across finance, supply chain, and enterprise operations, but it also brings more complexity. That is why experienced specialists matter when you need speed without losing control.
Much of the analysis, configuration, and development around SAP can be done remotely. On-site time in Munich helps when workshops, stakeholder alignment, testing, or go-live support need fast feedback. Many projects use a mix of both, especially when business teams and technical specialists must coordinate closely.
Look for proof that the SAP specialist has handled projects similar to yours, not just general system work. Ask how they approach testing, transport control, data safety, and handover documentation. Strong professionals can explain what they changed, why they changed it, and what risks they watched for.
Freelancers are often brought in for SAP rollouts, S/4HANA migrations, ABAP changes, interface work, master data cleanup, and production support. They are also useful when a company needs extra capacity during a busy program or a temporary gap in the team. In Munich, that often means supporting large enterprise landscapes and time-sensitive business changes.
