Job Description

n

Senior Oracle EPM Cloud (Planning) Functional Consultant

n

YOU MUST BE SC CLEARED OR ELIGIBLE FOR CTC CLEARANCE. TO BE ELIGIBLE YOU MUST HAVE LIVED IN THE UK FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS.

n

Deliver. Own. Lead.

n

This role is for an Oracle EPM Planning expert who takes ownership.

n

We’re looking for a Senior Oracle EPM Cloud Planning Consultant with deep functional expertise and strong hands-on technical capability — someone who has personally delivered multiple end-to-end Oracle Planning Cloud implementations and is comfortable being accountable for the outcome.

n

This is not a design-only or oversight role. You’ll be hands-on throughout the lifecycle, building high-quality, scalable planning solutions that Finance teams genuinely rely on.

n

The Opportunity

n

As a Senior Oracle EPM Cloud Planning Consultant, you’ll deliver Oracle Planning Cloud (PBCS / EPBCS) solutions from initial requirements through design, build, integration, testing, and post-go-live support.

n

You’ll work directly with Finance and FP&A stakeholders, translating business needs into robust technical solutions — and then building them yourself.

n

While you may mentor or guide others when appropriate, the expectation is clear: you can independently deliver complete Planning Cloud solutions end to end.

n

What You’ll Be Responsible For

n

n
• Leading and delivering full lifecycle Oracle Planning Cloud implementations

n

• Designing and building planning models, metadata, forms, dashboards, and user experiences

n

• Developing and optimising complex business rules, allocations, calculations, and Groovy scripts

n

• Building and managing integrations using Data Management, EPM Automate, and automation tooling

n

• Working closely with Finance and FP&A teams to design driver-based planning, forecasting, and reporting processes

n

• Running workshops, gathering requirements, and communicating clearly with senior stakeholders

n

• Producing high-quality documentation and supporting testing and go-live activities

n

• Supporting quarterly Oracle updates, regression testing, and ongoing enhancements

n

n

Qualifications

n

What We’re Looking For

n

n
• A minimum of 3 end-to-end Oracle Planning Cloud implementations delivered

n

• Strong hands-on experience across configuration, calculations, integrations, and automation

n

• Proven capability with: n
  n
  • Oracle Planning Cloud (PBCS / EPBCS)

  n

  • Smart View

  n

  • Data Management

  n

  • EPM Automate

  n

  • Groovy scripting (highly desirable)

  n

n

• Excellent communication skills — able to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences

n

• Comfortable working independently while collaborating effectively within delivery teams

n

• Highly organised, proactive, and confident managing multiple priorities

n

n

Desirable Experience

n

You will have:

n

n
• Finance or accountancy background and/or qualification

n

• Exposure to other Oracle EPM Cloud modules, including FCCS, ARCS, EDMCS, PCMCS, Narrative Reporting, or Tax Reporting

n

• Experience migrating from Hyperion Planning to Oracle EPM Cloud

n

n

Why Join?

n

This is a true delivery role for experienced Oracle EPM Planning consultants who want responsibility, autonomy, and the opportunity to work on meaningful, complex programmes.

n

If you’re someone who enjoys owning solutions, solving real FP&A problems, and seeing your work go live and deliver value, this role offers exactly that.
