Oracle Fusion Finance Consultant

Provide senior Oracle Fusion Financials expertise to protect the quality of the Group ERP template, review and challenge the implementation partner's work, and progressively support internal ownership of Finance configuration and country rollouts. The role transfers design decisions, configurations, testing assets and operating knowledge to the internal Finance Lead and academy resources. Functional scope: General Ledger, Payables, Receivables, Cash Management, Fixed Assets, Expenses, Tax, Lease Accounting, intercompany and related financial controls.

• →Global Design and solution quality: review and challenge the Financials Global Design; validate the Group Finance template (Chart of Accounts, ledgers, legal entities, business units, calendars, intercompany, workflows, tax, closing); assess country statutory and tax requirements and recommend standard configuration, localisation or formal deviation.
• →Partner delivery supervision: review configuration workbooks, functional designs and deliverables; peer-review configurations before SIT, UAT and production; provide an independent internal opinion at quality gates and on Finance change requests.
• →Configuration and internal delivery: configure Oracle Fusion Financials directly as delivery responsibility transfers in-house — from review and supervision, through shadowing, to joint and internally led delivery; maintain workbooks and support defect analysis, regression, cutover readiness and go-live assessments.
• →Process design: design and optimise Record-to-Report, Procure-to-Pay, Order-to-Cash, Asset-to-Retire, Cash, Tax and closing processes; define standard controls, reconciliations and approval workflows aligned with Group Finance policies.
• →Data migration and testing: support Finance mapping, transformation rules and validation (suppliers, customers, banks, assets, opening balances, open AR / AP, tax, master data); mock and cutover loads, reconciliation and sign-off; prepare and review test scenarios, SIT execution, defect triage and UAT preparation; validate OTBI / BI Publisher outputs and Finance interfaces (OIC).
• →Knowledge transfer: maintain design decisions and the Design Deviation Log; produce reusable Finance playbooks, testing packs, cutover checklists and runbooks; mentor the internal Finance Lead and academy resources and support their Oracle certification readiness.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree (Finance, Accounting, IS, Business or Engineering); significant Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials implementation experience with at least two complete lifecycles, in multi-entity, multi-ledger or multi-country environments.
• Strong knowledge of several Financials modules (GL, AP, AR, Cash, FA, Expenses, Tax, Lease Accounting, intercompany); hands-on Functional Setup Manager configuration, fit-to-standard workshops and configuration workbooks.
• Finance data migration and FBDI; SIT / UAT / regression and defect management; roles, access and segregation-of-duties awareness; integration mapping, OTBI / BI Publisher requirements, cutover and reconciliation.
• Experience quality-assuring an implementation partner's work, with the credibility to challenge constructively and protect template integrity; strong documentation discipline and a coaching mindset; English fluent, working French a strong advantage.
• Certifications: at least one active Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials Certified Implementation Professional credential aligned with the assigned modules; General Ledger certification mandatory for the lead GL profile; Payables, Receivables or Accounting Hub credentials strongly preferred.
