About Manuel

🔷 SAP GTS Consultant at EY — 3+ years in SAP, specialised in Global Trade Services since September 2025.

Currently supporting BMW Group's global trade compliance operations across Germany, GB, Hungary and the US.

What I do day to day:
▸ Export and import declarations — monitoring, incomplete documents, resolution
▸ Customs Management and Trade Preference in SAP GTS
▸ Master data maintenance — business partners, products, licences, sanctioned party lists
▸ System integration monitoring — RFC connections and IDocs across SAP modules

Before GTS, I spent 2+ years at EY supporting Radisson Hotel Group's SAP systems across 300+ properties worldwide — progressing from support consultant to leading the global payments workstream, managing client and vendor relationships weekly.

My background in hotel operations — 10+ years across 3 to 5 star properties — is what brought me into SAP in the first place. I knew how hospitality businesses worked, and that made me a better consultant from day one.

Now looking for an international SAP GTS role — implementation, migration or post go-live support. Open to relocation.
