Process & Automation Enablement delivers assurance and advisory work in helping clients get more value out of their Enterprise data and ERP Business Management systems, specifically SAP, Oracle, and D365 as well as GRC and/or data analytical solutions. We implement, configure, manage, and risk-manage data-centric solutions, helping our clients organize, assure, and improve their data; supporting better decisions by fully harnessing the power of their data.
Our key propositions include:

As a Process and Automation Manager, you will focus on process mining and intelligence using Celonis Process Mining (EMS) technology to gain insights into how our clients operate their business.

1. Support Managers and Senior Managers in overseeing technical delivery, managing engagements, maintaining morale, and managing client relationships.
2. Build data models and dashboards on Celonis EMS that create digital twins of our business processes for analysis.
