Lead the finance and procurement workstream of a major Oracle Fusion transformation
This is an opportunity to play a pivotal role in a large-scale Oracle Fusion ERP transformation programme within a complex, security-conscious public sector organisation.
As the Oracle Fusion Finance & Procurement Lead, you'll provide functional leadership across the Finance and Procurement workstream, ensuring Oracle Fusion Cloud is designed and implemented to support both organisational objectives and statutory requirements.
This is much more than a systems implementation role. You'll shape future business processes, influence solution design and act as the critical link between business stakeholders and the implementation partner, ensuring the solution delivers meaningful operational improvements rather than simply replicating legacy ways of working.
The opportunity
Working alongside senior finance leaders, programme leadership and implementation partners, you'll lead the end-to-end design and implementation of Oracle Fusion Finance and Procurement.
You'll help define future operating models, guide functional design, support solution configuration and ensure successful testing, business readiness and adoption. Throughout the programme you'll champion an "adopt before adapt" approach, helping the organisation maximise the value of Oracle Fusion while balancing operational, financial and regulatory requirements.
You'll also play a key role in ensuring finance, purchasing and procurement processes are integrated, well governed and capable of supporting the organisation long after go-live.
The person
We're looking for someone who combines deep Oracle Fusion Finance expertise with the confidence to influence senior stakeholders and challenge implementation partners where appropriate.
You'll have successfully delivered multiple Oracle Fusion Finance implementations and understand how to redesign finance and procurement processes to take advantage of modern ERP capabilities.
You'll be equally comfortable leading design workshops, supporting configuration, overseeing testing and helping business users prepare for change.
Experience within the public sector or another highly regulated environment would be particularly valuable.
Experience
We're particularly interested in hearing from candidates who can demonstrate experience of:
- Leading multiple Oracle Fusion Finance implementations from design through to go-live.
- Oracle Fusion Finance, Purchasing and Procurement modules.
- Chart of Accounts design, financial controls and reporting.
- Business process redesign and operating model transformation.
- Working closely with implementation partners and system integrators.
- Leading workshops, testing, business readiness and user adoption.
- Public sector or other highly regulated environments.
- A recognised professional accountancy qualification (CCAB, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent).
Given the nature of the organisation and the work involved, you'll either hold, or be willing and able to obtain, the appropriate security vetting required for the assignment.
Why apply?
This is an opportunity to lead one of the most significant workstreams within a major Oracle Fusion transformation programme, shaping how finance and procurement services operate for years to come.
If you're looking for an assignment where you'll influence strategic design decisions, work alongside senior stakeholders and leave a lasting legacy, we'd love to hear from you.
