Summary

About The Role:

Join our dedicated project team and play a key role in transforming NEXT Finance through the implementation of a world-class Oracle Fusion ERP system. This is your opportunity to lead the design and delivery of core finance processes in a high-impact, business-critical project.

As the Oracle Fusion ERP P2P Lead, you’ll take ownership of designing and implementing processes within the Procure-to-Pay (P2P) modules — with a particular focus on Payables Invoices. You’ll also consider the wider impacts on Supplier Onboarding, Supplier Data Model, and Payments.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Defining the “to-be” P2P processes and embedding strong financial controls that align with regulatory and operational requirements.

  • Making and documenting key design decisions to create a clear roadmap for system integration.

  • Collaborating with data migration, reporting, and change management teams to ensure smooth delivery across the project lifecycle.

  • Contributing to business impact assessments, reviewing integration documents, and supporting test planning and execution.

  • Partnering with business adoption teams to refine training materials and assist with cutover activities, ensuring a seamless transition into the warranty period.

You’ll bridge the gap between technical and business needs — ensuring the new system delivers efficient, controlled, and future-proof financial operations.

About You:

You’ll bring a strong background in Oracle Fusion ERP and P2P process design, alongside excellent communication and problem-solving skills. Specifically, you’ll have:

  • In-depth knowledge of the Oracle Payables module and a working understanding of other P2P modules.



  • Familiarity with banking standards (e.g., ISO 20022).



  • Proven experience delivering change initiatives with a focus on controls, automation, and process improvement.

  • A methodical, self-managed approach, able to balance multiple priorities and meet tight deadlines.



  • Excellent analytical and documentation skills, with the ability to identify and escalate risks appropriately.



  • Strong communication and stakeholder management abilities, working confidently across business and technical teams.



  • Competence in Excel, PowerPoint, and/or Google Workspace for analysis and presentation.
