• Support project accounting and billing operations within Oracle Fusion PPM, ensuring accurate and timely billing, revenue recognition, and financial tracking.

• Maintain continuity of financial operations, with particular focus on month-end close cycles, ensuring all deadlines and reporting requirements are met.
• Partner closely with the VP Finance within a VP Finance/CFO structure to ensure team performance, output consistency, and alignment with organizational goals.
• Provide light process guidance to the finance team to improve stability and efficiency without undertaking heavy process redesign.
• Navigate and leverage Oracle ERP to support financial operations, reporting, and troubleshooting in a dynamic, active environment.
• Support financial operations within a services-based, time and materials revenue model, ensuring accurate billing and revenue flows.
• Collaborate with leadership engaged in finance transformation initiatives to align day-to-day operations with broader automation and transformation goals.
• Operate effectively in a high-growth, global services business with recent organizational design changes, adapting to partially structured environments and lean teams.

Essential Skills

• Practical experience navigating and leveraging Oracle ERP for financial operations, reporting, and troubleshooting.
• Demonstrated financial leadership and team oversight experience, including managing finance managers and analysts in a lean team environment.
• Solid expertise in project accounting, including billing, revenue recognition, and financial tracking in a time and materials business model.
• Strong background in managing and maintaining operational continuity during month-end close cycles in a complex organization.
• Experience working within a services or time and materials revenue model, with a clear understanding of consulting/services-based billing environments and revenue flows.
• Prior exposure to finance transformation initiatives and process automation, with the ability to support operations while transformation work is underway.
• Experience in a global finance environment, supporting a large, multi-entity or geographically dispersed business.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and partner with senior leadership and cross-functional teams.
• Ability to step into partially structured environments and provide stability and clarity in a high-growth context.
• Comfort working with lean teams and reduced headcount while maintaining high standards of quality and timeliness.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Experience supporting a high-growth global services business, ideally around the mid-market to large-enterprise scale.
• background working in matrixed, services-based organizations with multiple stakeholders and complex reporting lines.
• Familiarity with finance transformation initiatives, including process automation and systems optimization.
• Exposure to financial planning and analysis (FP&A) activities in addition to core accounting and operations.
• Comfort operating in environments with recent organizational design changes and evolving structures.
• Ability to provide pragmatic, light-touch process guidance without overhauling existing systems or workflows.
