About The Position

The Record to Report (R2R) Global Process Owner is responsible for designing, standardizing, and governing the end-to-end global R2R process across all three business units. Reporting directly to the Business Process Optimization (BPO), this position owns the R2R workstream within the company’s JDE ERP global blueprint. The role is responsible for partnering closely with business unit finance leaders, operational stakeholders, and regional teams to collaboratively define future-state process and system requirements, translate those requirements into detailed JDE configurations, develop comprehensive test scripts, lead user acceptance testing (UAT), and drive organization-wide training and change adoption. Working in close partnership with the selected System Integrator (SI), the R2R Global Process Owner ensures a high-quality, business-aligned rollout—one business unit at a time—while harmonizing previously site-specific master data, customizations, and processes into a unified global design. A critical focus of the role is to design and implement strong, system-enabled financial controls within the JDE environment to establish a robust internal control framework to be public company ready, including readiness for SOX 404 compliance, external audit scrutiny, and sustained regulatory reporting obligations. This position plays a pivotal role in the finance transformation program, ensuring seamless integration with new process, while delivering faster, more accurate, compliant, and publicly company-ready financial close, consolidation, reporting, and governance capabilities.
