SAP Senior Analytics Consultant

Alicia Brandau

"How do I make data available in a way that makes it reportable? SAP BW and analytics provide the right answers here."

This is Alicia

"If a number doesn't fit, I like to dive deep into the tables," says Alicia. With this remark, she reveals a lot about herself, about her passion for numbers and data, for example, but also about the persistence of tinkering with a problem until it is solved. She has always loved to "handle" dates and numbers, she adds, and therefore decided to study and pursue a career in which she can pursue this passion. After studying business administration in Bielefeld, Mainz and Warsaw, she worked for Hans Turck GmbH & Co KG and Fujitsu TDS. Subsequently, Alicia worked as Senior SAP BW Inhouse Consultant at ThyssenKrupp Industrial Solution in Essen. She joined GAMBIT at the beginning of 2020 and is working in the fields of Business Warehouse, Business Intelligence and SAP BPC. "What appealed to me about this task was above all the fact that I could help to build up the analytics area at GAMBIT", she says, "but also that the traveling activity is limited due to the remote work compared to other consulting companies". After work, Alicia likes to walk at home along the Phoenix Lake in Dortmund or through the Romberg Park in the south of the city. "But you can't do this without a running clock - after all, a lot of data accumulates when you run.“
