About The Position

The Finance Systems & Planning Governance team sits at the intersection of Finance, Technology, and Data Management, ensuring the integrity, scalability, and effectiveness of the company’s planning ecosystem. The team is responsible for Oracle EPM governance, planning processes, master data management, forecasting controls, and continuous systems improvement. Working closely with Accounting, Corporate Systems/IT, HR, Procurement, and FP&A teams, the group enables accurate forecasting, reliable financial reporting, and strong data quality through effective platform stewardship, operational discipline, and cross-functional partnership. We are seeking a Finance Systems leader to serve as the functional owner of our Oracle EPM platform and enterprise planning processes. This is not a traditional FP&A role focused on financial analysis; instead, it combines Finance expertise with Oracle EPM administration, planning governance, master data stewardship, and systems optimization. You will be responsible for ensuring the planning environment supports scalable forecasting, accurate financial reporting, and strong controls across the organization. Key responsibilities include ownership of planning calendars and processes, forecasting models, business rules, chart of accounts governance, reference data management, security and user access administration, UAT leadership, and Finance-facing system support. Acting as the primary liaison between Finance and IT, you will drive platform enhancements, automation initiatives, and roadmap priorities while leading a small team responsible for system operations, data validation, and reporting support.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Information Systems, or a related field.
• 4–6+ years of experience in Oracle EPM administration, financial systems, Enterprise Performance Management, or FP&A systems environments.
• Hands-on experience with Oracle EPM (preferred), Anaplan, or similar enterprise planning platforms.
• Strong knowledge of planning processes, forecasting cycles, and financial reporting requirements.
• Proven experience managing EPM metadata, hierarchies, business rules, workflows, and security frameworks.
• Experience owning Chart of Accounts (COA) structures, master data governance, and reference data management.
• Ability to translate Finance and business requirements into scalable system solutions and process improvements.
• Experience leading user acceptance testing, system enhancements, integrations, and release management activities.
• Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to partner effectively across Finance, Accounting, HR, Procurement, and IT.
