OQEMA is a top-ten European chemical distributor with 1,000+ employees operating across life-science, technical, and environmental applications. Their tech stack is heavily SAP-centric (R/3, S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition, SAP Global Trade Services, SAP SD) paired with Salesforce and ATOSS for workforce management—a configuration typical of large-scale logistics and supply-chain operations. Active projects reveal a multi-year platform consolidation: global S/4HANA Cloud rollout, migration from legacy systems to SAP GTS, and Salesforce integration across markets. Hiring is sales-led (7 open roles) and steady, suggesting execution of expansion rather than crisis hiring.
