Maximilian Th\u00fcr began his career at cbs in July 2015 as a working student in Corporate Sales and Marketing in Heidelberg. During this time, he wrote his master’s thesis at the company and had his first contact with SAP by becoming more deeply involved in consulting in the finance context. It then quickly became clear to him that he wanted to develop further with the trainee program, which he started in October 2016 in the Finance department. Max had already been interested in consulting beforehand, but this only really took shape during his time as a working student. He is now a Consulting Director in Finance and Controlling and has already been able to bring several groundbreaking projects to a successful conclusion at cbs.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

From trainee to Consulting Director<\/strong><\/h2>\n

After successfully completing the trainee program, Max was quickly integrated into the project at the high-tech company TRUMPF<\/a> near Stuttgart. The focus here was on harmonizing the global structures in the finance department. He was promoted to Senior Consultant when he led the project as team leader. The project took him to China, Japan, Switzerland and the USA, where he successfully carried out two go-live implementations.<\/p>\n

Immediately afterwards, he started a new project at MAN Truck & Bus in Munich, where he was promoted to manager and took over the project management for the S\/4HANA preliminary project “ONE Finance”. This project included the migration of the MAN T&B<\/span> production system. In the flagship project with SCHOTT<\/a> in Mainz, he led the Finance & Controlling team. The international glass technology specialist switched from the old SAP environment to the new, digital S\/4HANA world. This transformation digitalized the processes and enabled system-supported, forward-looking analyses – worldwide in all countries and companies. Max took over the program management a little later in the project and was also responsible for the steering committee. In addition to these large projects, he was also involved in smaller transformation projects. Since December 2021, he has been responsible as program manager and on the steering committee at Blanc & Fischer. The successful S\/4HANA go-live took place in April of this year. He is currently working with Oliver Dorsner, member of the Executive Board, on the Giesecke+Devrient<\/span> S\/4 transformation project, which is due to go live in 2025.<\/p>\n
