This legacy platform has been running on IBM AS400 (mini mainframe) since 2000. With the shift to a shared services operating model—and due to differences in job architecture and policies—four separate instances of the payroll system were created. As part of our transformation journey, these legacy instances will be decommissioned and replaced by a modern SAP EC Payroll (SAP ECPY) solution.

To support this transition, we are seeking a seasoned SAP Testing Manager with deep expertise in SAP EC Payroll Implementation (ECPY) to lead and coordinate all end-to-end testing activities for the SAP program.

• Retroactive payroll
• Statutory compliance
• GL postings & integrations
• Accruals (Gratuity, Leave Salary, Leave Passage, Bonus, Medical Insurance, Pension/social security.etc)
• Variance report
• Leave Salary Calculation
• Final settlements
• Manage testing risks, defects, and quality metrics; run daily defect triage with client stakeholders.
• Interface with client’s business and IT teams to align on testing scope, timelines, and deliverables.
• Guide client teams and junior consultants on SAP payroll testing best practices.

• 8+ years in SAP testing with 3+ years focused on SAP Payroll (country-specific knowledge preferred: (e.g., Middle East, Asia & Africa).
• Prior consulting experience in managing SAP test cycles and deliverables in client-facing roles.
• Hands-on with tools like SAP Solution Manager, HP ALM, or Jira.
• Experience in managing payroll testing across multiple interfaces (e.g., time systems, finance, banks, tax authorities).
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.

• SAP Certification (Cloud Payroll) – Must Have
• ISTQB or similar testing qualification – Nice To Have
• Exposure to S/4HANA, SAP SuccessFactors, or third-party payroll providers – Must Have
