You will lead a blended team of internal analysts and external delivery partners while working closely with business and IT leaders across a complex global organization. This role requires a leader with deep project-accounting functional expertise, strong implementation and production-support experience, and the technical fluency to partner effectively with development, integration, reporting, and architecture teams.

This position will offer flexibility for hybrid work schedules to include both in-office presence and telecommute/virtual work, to be based from either Houston or Dallas, TX.

Own the stability, security, performance, and supportability of project applications, including incidents, service requests, recurring-problem resolution, enhancements, change control, access requests, audits, and corrective actions.
Provide functional leadership for Oracle Projects and related project-accounting processes, such as project costing, project billing, revenue generation, AutoAccounting, burdening, transfer pricing, and cross-charge.
Lead implementations, conversions, migrations, and major enhancements from requirements and solution design through configuration, testing, deployment, and post-production stabilization.
Maintain a 12-month operational and enhancement roadmap, contribute to resource and budget planning, and align longer-term technology plans with business priorities.
Partner with technical teams on application architecture, integrations, reporting, data, and scalable solutions while maintaining effective change-control and implementation practices.
Build trusted relationships across business and IT teams, translate business needs into actionable solutions, support multiple business groups and country-specific localizations, and identify opportunities to improve application efficiency and user experience.

Experience owning production application support, including incident and service-request management, recurring-problem resolution, enhancements, change control, access, and audit support.
Experience leading internal teams, vendors, or outsourced delivery partners, including responsibility for delivery quality, capacity, performance, and service-level compliance.
Strong executive communication, facilitation, and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to influence business leaders and drive alignment across cross-functional teams.

Preferred Qualifications

Hands-on functional experience with Oracle E-Business Suite Projects or Oracle Fusion Cloud Project Management/PPM, including Project Costing and Project Billing.
Experience supporting enterprise applications across multiple business groups and country-specific localizations within a large, global, project-based organization.
