Take the Lead on a Global Oracle EBS Transformation – and Get Paid What You’re Worth

If you’re one of the few Oracle E-Business Suite Financials experts who can see the whole picture — architecture, delivery, and strategy — this is your chance to take centre stage on a high-profile, multi-year transformation with one of Version 1’s flagship global clients.

We’re talking serious influence, complex challenges, and a client that’s committed to doing things properly — with the budget, scope, and executive backing to match. You’ll own the end-to-end Financials solution architecture, shaping outcomes across GL, AP, AR, FA, CM, and iExpense, while leading a talented team of functional and technical specialists.

This isn’t a “hands-off” architecture role. You’ll be at the table for strategic decisions and rolling up your sleeves for the key design and delivery phases. The first 8 weeks will see you embedded onsite in the US Midwest (expenses covered), setting the direction and getting deep into discovery. From there, you’ll make targeted onsite visits over the next 12–18 months to keep the solution on track and the client engaged.

Why this contract is different:

• Green-lighted, potential long-term engagement – stability in a contract world.
• Executive-level buy-in – you won’t be fighting for attention or resources.
• Global scope & impact – you’ll leave your fingerprints on a business-critical ERP program.
• Top-tier team & culture – work with people who know their stuff and get things done.

If you’re ready to lead where others follow, bring your deep Oracle Financials expertise to a program that will stretch, reward, and recognise you.
