If you're passionate about digitisation and digital tools, if you have a background in business, economics, human resources or any other related field, if you have a professional background and want to explore a digitalised sphere in order to build a solid career, then the SAP Consultant path is for you.
In this article, we'll explore in detail the top 5 reasons to choose this exciting and rewarding career.<\/p>

  1. Build up an international expertise in management standards (best practice)<\/em><\/strong><\/h5><\/li><\/ol>

    As an SAP functional consultant, you will be at the heart of ERP solutions from SAP, the world leader in business management software. You'll help customers define their needs, configure SAP modules tailored to their business processes, and set up functionalities for efficient business management. This expertise will enable you to play a crucial role in optimising business operations, which translates into a constant demand for such skills.<\/p>

    1. Become a multi-skilled or specialised expert, the choice is yours<\/em><\/strong><\/h5><\/li><\/ol>

      The job of SAP functional consultant offers remarkable versatility. You can choose to become a general expert capable of managing various aspects of SAP solutions, or specialise in specific areas such as finance, logistics or human resources. This versatility allows you to adapt your career to suit your interests and market opportunities.<\/p>

      If you opt for specialisation, you will become a sought-after expert in a specific field. For example, by becoming an SAP functional consultant specialising in finance, you'll master the intricacies of SAP Finance (SAP FI) and be able to help companies manage their accounts, financial reports and cash flows in the best possible way.<\/p>

      1. Benefit from an attractive remuneration package<\/em><\/strong><\/h5><\/li><\/ol>

        One of the most attractive benefits of working as an SAP functional consultant is the salary. According to Glassdoor, the average annual salary for an SAP functional consultant in France is \u20ac44,263, with opportunities for significant increases depending on your level of experience. Experienced consultants can even earn up to \u20ac67,500 a year. In the United States or Canada, basic pay is in the range of $86,000. In Cameroon, you will earn anything around USD 10,944 a year.<\/p>

        Your salary will depend on a number of factors, including your level of experience, your specialisation, the sector of activity in which you work and the geographical area. As you can see below, there is a difference in pay between countries. The cost and higher standard of living in certain latitudes is the main reason for this.<\/p>

        1. Responding to a growing market demand<\/em><\/strong><\/h5><\/li><\/ol>

          The SAP ERP market is constantly expanding, which means a growing demand for SAP functional consultants. Many companies are looking for experts to help them make the most of their SAP investments, ensuring a steady stream of opportunities. SAP SE estimates that more than 300,000 SAP consultants will be needed for migration projects (ECC - SAP S\/4HANA) between 2025 and 2030 in the emerging countries of Europe, America and Asia. There is also a strong demand for SAP consultants for third-party application maintenance (TAM) assignments in specific areas such as logistics, finance, distribution and production in African countries like C\u00f4te d'Ivoire, Mauritius, South Africa, Egypt, Morocco and many others.<\/span><\/p>

          1. The opportunity to choose between employee and self-employed status<\/em><\/strong><\/h5><\/li><\/ol>

            As an SAP functional consultant, you have the flexibility to work either as an employee or as a freelancer. This freedom allows you to decide on your own career path and projects. If you prefer the stability of a salaried job, many companies are looking for SAP functional consultants to join their internal teams.<\/p>

            On the other hand, if you want to be independent and manage your own projects, you can choose to work as an independent SAP functional consultant. This option allows you to set your own rates, choose the projects that interest you most and manage your own schedule.<\/p>
