The successful candidate will lead business analysis activities across Finance transformation, regulatory, operational improvement, and system enhancement initiatives.

This position is open to remote candidates within the US.

• Independently drive end-to-end business analysis activities across initiatives, including requirement gathering, analysis, documentation of clear system requirements for delivery by IT teams, validation, prioritization, and traceability across complex initiatives
• Act as a trusted advisor and one of the key interfaces between Business and IT - ensuring clarity of requirements, strong documentation, alignment of expectations, and informed decision-making throughout the delivery lifecycle
• Own the design, testing, and rollout of system solutions across Oracle E-Business Suite (R12) and custom-developed/bespoke solutions, applying functional expertise across Finance modules (such as AP, AR, GL, and Cash Management) to ensure solutions align with business processes and control requirements
• Own the successful delivery of system enhancements and initiatives, proactively managing scope, risks, dependencies, and stakeholder alignment to ensure timely delivery of high-quality solutions
• Lead and coordinate activities within the IT Global Quarterly Release process, ensuring readiness, quality validation, impact assessment, and smooth deployment of enhancements
• Evaluate alternative solution designs and re-engineered processes, providing recommendations based on solution feasibility, operational effectiveness, financial controls, and long-term scalability
• Identify and drive process optimization and standardization opportunities across Finance systems and workflows
• Ensure SOX and governance compliance by ensuring all system changes adhere to defined governance, documentation, and approval processes
• Partner with offshore delivery and support teams to ensure high service quality, effective issue resolution, and continuous operational stability
• Provide guidance and mentorship to team members, promoting best practices in requirements management and stakeholder engagement

• Strong understanding of Finance Business Processes like Procure-to-Pay (P2P), Order-to-Cash (O2C), Record-to-Report (R2R), with demonstrable experience in analyzing processes and recommending practical improvements
• Demonstrated experience leading complex, large-scale, cross-functional, multi-regional Finance IT initiatives, with the ability to influence senior stakeholders and drive alignment across Business, IT, and external teams
• Strong experience driving end-to‑end requirements lifecycle management, including requirement gathering, analysis, documentation, validation, and translating requirements into clear system specifications
