SAP PP Consultant UK (Fractional, Contract)

About adesso

We're on a mission to help our clients deliver results with clarity, fairness, and accountability. By combining deep technical and functional IT and digital expertise, we drive innovation, modernise systems, and strengthen the teams behind them. If you want your SAP expertise to make production and warehouse operations run better, not just configure transactions, we'd love to talk.

The Role

We're looking for an experienced SAP PP Consultant with working knowledge of SAP WM to support our client's manufacturing and supply chain operations in an SAP ECC environment. You'll work closely with business users, process owners, and technical teams to design, configure, support, and improve production planning and execution processes, and their integration with warehouse management.

This is a hands-on, business facing role for a consultant who understands how shop floor reality translates into system design.

What You'll Do

• Configure, enhance, and support SAP PP processes in SAP ECC, including master data, MRP, production orders, routings, BOMs, work centres, and capacity planning

• Support production execution and confirmation processes, including goods issue, goods receipt, and order settlement

• Work with SAP WM to support warehouse processes, including stock movements, transfer orders, storage types, and put away and picking strategies

• Manage integration between PP, WM, MM, QM, SD, and FI/CO to ensure end to end process flow

• Gather and analyse business requirements, produce functional specifications, and work with ABAP developers on enhancements and reports

• Plan and run testing, including unit, integration, and user acceptance testing, and support defect resolution

• Investigate and resolve production incidents and support tickets, finding root causes rather than quick fixes

• Support change, cutover, and release activities, and provide user training and documentation

• Contribute to process improvement and, where relevant, planning for future SAP S/4HANA migration

What You'll Bring

• Extensive hands-on experience as an SAP PP Consultant in SAP ECC environments

• Strong knowledge of production planning processes, including discrete, repetitive, or process manufacturing as relevant

• Working knowledge of SAP WM and its integration with production and logistics processes

• Good understanding of cross module integration, particularly with MM, QM, and SD

• Experience in end-to-end project delivery, including requirements, design, configuration, testing, and go live support

• Ability to write clear functional specifications and work effectively with technical teams

• Experience of SAP S/4HANA, EWM, or migration projects (desirable)

• Excellent stakeholder management, communication, and problem solving skills

• Relevant SAP certifications (desirable)

• Strong written and spoken English 

Why Join Us

We combine deep technical and functional expertise, giving our consultants the context to deliver SAP solutions that fit the business, not just the blueprint. You'll work alongside experienced consultants who value clarity, fairness, and accountability as much as you do.
