Oracle Fusion Workstream Lead | Procurement & Supply Chain

About You

You will bring strong procurement or supply chain expertise alongside experience of ERP implementation or business transformation. Just as importantly, you will be able to bring people together, navigate complexity and influence decisions across business, technical and external partner teams.

Essential:

• Strong knowledge of procurement and supply chain processes, including Procure-to-Pay (P2P), Source-to-Contract (S2C), supplier management and inventory.

• Experience leading a procurement, supply chain or supply operations workstream within a major ERP implementation or transformation programme.

• Ability to influence and collaborate with senior stakeholders, cross-functional teams, programme governance groups and external partners.

• Experience leading business engagement through solution design, testing, implementation and deployment readiness.

• Strong programme delivery and problem-solving capability, including managing competing priorities and facilitating complex decisions.

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate complex issues, risks and recommendations for different audiences.

  
  

Experience implementing Oracle Fusion Procurement or Oracle Fusion Supply Chain Management (SCM) would be valuable but is not essential. Experience working with system integrators or delivering transformation within research, science, higher education, healthcare or not-for-profit organisations would also be beneficial.

We recognise that relevant expertise can be gained in different organisations, sectors and career paths. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds and encourage you to apply if you believe your skills and experience could enable you to succeed in the role, even if you do not meet all the desirable criteria.
