This role reports to the Senior Manager, Financial Systems.

Key Responsibilities

In this role, the analyst will actively support the administration and day-to-day operations of critical financial systems, with a primary focus on application functionality, user support, performance, and stability. Responsibilities include managing user provisioning, roles, and security groups within Oracle EPM Cloud and Planning, supporting metadata updates and hierarchy maintenance, and assisting with forecasting and budgeting cycles.

Throughout all responsibilities, the analyst will collaborate closely with Finance, IT, and Compliance teams, providing responsive support to users and clear communication regarding system issues, enhancements, and ongoing operational activities.
