Oracle EPM Principal Consultant
The Role
We're hiring an Oracle EPM Principal Consultant to lead EPM Cloud Planning work in our Oracle EPM practice, with a focus on the Capital, Workforce and Projects modules. You'll own the client relationship at the executive level and lead implementations from design through go-live. You'll also mentor a growing team of EPM consultants. Clients will count on you to explain how headcount and capital spend flow into their financial plan, and to push back when a requirement doesn't hold up.
Responsibilities
- Lead EPM Cloud Planning implementations focused on Capital, Workforce and Projects, from discovery through go-live and post-launch support.
- Design Workforce Planning models for headcount, compensation, benefits and payroll taxes at the employee or job level.
- Configure Capital Planning for new asset requests, depreciation, transfers and retirements, and tie the results to the balance sheet and cash flow.
- Build Projects Planning for capital, contract and indirect projects. Set up the hand-off from capital projects to assets in Capital Planning.
- Connect Workforce, Capital and Projects to Financials so labor and asset costs land in the plan without manual adjustments.
- Write Groovy rules and calc scripts where the standard module logic falls short.
- Serve as the main client contact for CFOs, VPs of FP&A and HR leaders.
- Own delivery scope, schedule and budget, and follow R-Cubed's escalation process when risks come up.
- Mentor EPM consultants and senior consultants with technical guidance and performance feedback.
- Write proposals and estimates for Planning pursuits, and look for ways to expand scope on current accounts.
- Build reusable designs for Capital, Workforce and Projects that the practice can use on future engagements.
Qualifications
- 5+ years implementing Oracle EPM, including at least 2 years in a client-facing leadership or principal role.
- Hands-on configuration of Workforce, Capital and Projects in EPM Cloud Planning, with at least one implementation where all three were integrated.
- Working knowledge of Financials Planning and how it connects to the other modules.
- Experience with Groovy, calc scripts, Data Integration and EPM Automate.
- Understands HR cost drivers and fixed asset accounting well enough to challenge a client's requirements.
- Consulting or professional services background strongly preferred.
- Comfortable presenting to CFOs and other executives in plain business terms.
- Experience leading and developing consultants. People-management experience preferred.
- Bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, information systems or a related field preferred. MBA is a plus.
- Experience with FCC, ARCS, EPCM or EDM is a plus.
- Oracle EPM Planning certification strongly preferred.
Compensation and Benefits
- Competitive salary with a performance-based commission structure
- Medical, vision, and dental insurance for employees and eligible dependents
- 401(k) plan
- Paid time off
- Life and disability insurance
- A collaborative, employee-centered culture that values transparency, teamwork, and professional growth
