Costing Process Manager, Standardization & Digital Enablement (Temporary 6 months)(30h/w)

About the role

PGS manufacturing sites build budget costs and maintain their day-to-day product (SKU) costs in different ways. This leads to inconsistent cost data, duplicated effort, and unreliable budgeted SKU costs for Commercial Finance. This role will build on the existing "golden path" documentation and site survey. The colleague will validate them with sites across the network and turn them into one agreed standard for how budget costs are built, and SKU costs are maintained. The standard will cover the full path from SAP through to GMX and downstream reporting. The role will also deliver a roadmap for rolling it out, in time for the 2028 budget cycle.

 

Key responsibilities

• Test the golden path against how sites work today, using the survey results and follow-up conversations with site finance teams.
• Design one standard process for the budget cost build and for everyday SKU costing.
• Define how costs flow from SAP into GMX and resolve the known issues at that interface.
• Review the cost center hierarchy, account maintenance, and SKU/material master maintenance, and recommend a harmonized approach.
• Find ways to cut manual and offline work through SAP, AI, and other digital tools.
• Work with Planning, Procurement, Master Data, SAP/Digital and Commercial Finance to build the standard.
• Deliver a costed, sequenced implementation roadmap.

 

Minimum Requirements

• Qualified accountant (CIMA/ACCA/ACA) or equivalent product costing experience.
• Hands-on SAP costing experience (CO-PC, CO-CCA, material master, BOMs, cost roll-ups).
• Standard costing and budget cost build experience in a multi-site manufacturing environment.
• A track record of standardizing processes across sites or entities.
• Strong analytical and process documentation skills.
• The ability to influence people across sites and functions without direct authority.
• The ability to work independently to a fixed deadline on a part-time pattern.

 

Preferred Requirements

• Familiarity with GMX, Mosaic, Hermes, and BI reporting.
• SAP S/4HANA experience.
• Experience applying AI or automation to finance processes.
• Master data governance experience.
• Experience in a regulated manufacturing environment.
