About the Opportunity

A growing hospitality organization is replacing its legacy finance system with Oracle Fusion Cloud. An implementation partner will handle configuration and build. We are looking for a Project Manager to represent the business side: keep workstreams on track, hold the partner and internal teams to their commitments, and make sure finance is ready to run on the new platform. The finance phase runs through the end of 2027, with an HR phase planned for 2028.

What You'll Do

• Manage assigned workstreams across the finance implementation, from planning through go-live
• Follow up on deliverables, dates, and dependencies, and elevate early when something slips
• Work day to day with the implementation partner, finance leaders, and IT to keep scope and decisions moving
• Lead change management and readiness activities so finance teams are prepared for the new system
• Track risks, issues, and decisions, and report status clearly to the program lead and business stakeholders
• Ask informed questions about finance processes and data flows, and translate the answers into plan items

What You Bring

• 8+ years managing enterprise software projects, with a record of owning deliverables and holding people accountable
• Hands-on experience on a migration or implementation to Oracle Fusion Cloud, ideally finance-focused
• Working knowledge of core finance processes (for example, general ledger, payables, receivables, and period close) well enough to challenge assumptions
• Strong change management experience, including training, communications, and user adoption
• Comfort with system integrations and data conversion at a coordination level (this is not a hands-on technical role)
• Experience running structured, plan-driven (waterfall-style) delivery

Nice to Have

• Experience with Oracle Fusion HCM or another HR system migration
• Background in hospitality, travel, or multi-location businesses
