Enterprise Architect x2 - Oracle Fusion (ERP & EPM)

Core3 are delighted to partner with a global business in the Bristol/Bath area to hire two Enterprise Architects as part of a brand-new post-implementation architecture and systems team.

Why join our client?

Our client is a well-recognised brand based in the Bristol/Bath area, with over 2000 employees in the UK and a global footprint way beyond that.

This is a client I have personally worked with for over 10 years. What stands out to me is that this business truly cares about their people. It’s a great environment; passionate, professional, and focused on personal development at all levels.

The architecture and systems function are led by an incredibly impressive but very down-to-earth Global Director. He’s ex Oracle, with enviable industry experience and absolutely someone to learn from.

How you’ll make an impact

Our client is looking for two permanent Enterprise Architects to join the team as strategic hires, with the role responsibilities split into two; ERP and EPM.

The business implemented the complete Oracle Fusion suite early in 2024 – everything on both ERP and EPM. What they now need are skilled Oracle experts who can optimise and stabilise this system, bringing it into the UK/Europe, enhancing the user experience and unleashing its true value.

These roles will be given full autonomy on how to structure and run a design authority, build and lead a fit-for-purpose systems team and apply your knowledge of the Oracle Fusion suite to make a huge impact to successful business operations, in a role with a lot of visibility globally.

Why our client is excited about you

Our client is looking for individuals with a high level of Oracle Fusion product experience – people who have managed end-to-end system implementations in a ‘best practice’ environment and most importantly, you will have BAU experience.

You’re likely to have a mix of consulting and industry experience, but we’re very open to individuals who have gained experience from solely industry roles where you’ve been a solution owner, and/or worked in broader finance transformation roles.

• 5+ years Oracle Fusion product experience
• BAU experience optimising and stabilising Oracle Fusion in a medium-large business
• Operated at Enterprise Architect level with a broad view of either ERP or EPM modules
• Comfortable leading systems teams of 5+ headcount

What you’ll get in return

The headlines of the package for these two roles are:

• Up to £125,000 Basic Salary
• Bonus
• 10% Pension
• Private Medical Insurance
• Excellent Benefits
• Hybrid Working (3 days p/w in Bristol/Bath area)

We invite applications from all qualified candidates who believe they meet the requirements of the role, whilst supporting and promoting equality and diversity to create an inclusive working environment for all.
