Discussion

We are seeking an ERP Delivery Manager with strong hands-on Oracle ERP experience and a proven record of delivering large-scale, complex transformation programs. The successful candidate must translate contractual scope and business requirements into executable delivery plans, lead functional and technical teams, manage third-party vendors, and take ownership of delivery through go-live and stabilization.

This role requires active involvement in solution reviews, delivery challenges, issue resolution, and project recovery, supported by sound technical and functional judgment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead large-scale Oracle ERP programs involving multiple entities, locations, workstreams, vendors, and complex business requirements.
  • Translate contracts, proposals, statements of work, and business requirements into detailed execution plans, work packages, deliverables, milestones, and acceptance criteria.
  • Maintain traceability between contracted scope, approved requirements, assigned tasks, delivered solutions, test results, and client acceptance.
  • Apply hands-on Oracle ERP experience to challenge solution designs, assess delivery estimates, identify gaps, and guide teams toward practical solutions.
  • Lead functional and technical track leaders, assigning clear responsibilities and holding teams accountable for delivery commitments and quality.
  • Manage third-party vendors and subcontractors, including scope alignment, delivery plans, dependencies, deliverable reviews, performance, and escalations.
  • Establish an integrated program plan covering internal teams, client activities, and third-party commitments.
  • Validate progress against completed deliverables and acceptance evidence, identify slippage early, and implement corrective actions.
  • Take ownership of troubled projects by assessing root causes, establishing recovery plans, and driving execution against measurable targets.
  • Govern cross-functional business processes and resolve gaps between workstreams, systems, and organizational responsibilities.
  • Oversee configuration, development, interfaces, data migration, testing, deployment, and operational readiness.
  • Ensure realistic go-live decisions through readiness assessments, reconciliations, business acceptance, cutover rehearsals, and support preparation.
  • Control scope changes, assess their impact on cost and timelines, and secure approvals before additional work is committed.
  • Manage project budgets, resource allocation, capacity, utilization, and delivery profitability.
  • Lead client delivery meetings and steering committee discussions, presenting clear decisions, risks, dependencies, and required actions.
  • Coordinate with PMO to maintain reliable plans, risk and issue registers, decision logs, and executive reporting.
  • Oversee hypercare and transition to support, ensuring critical issues are resolved and contractual service obligations are met.
  • Support presales by validating delivery feasibility, scope assumptions, estimates, schedules, resource plans, and third-party dependencies.

Develop team capability through coaching, knowledge transfer, performance feedback, and consistent delivery standards

  • Demonstrated ability to manage cross-functional delivery across Finance, Supply Chain, HCM, and technical workstreams.
  • Proven experience managing third-party vendors, subcontractors, and delivery dependencies within a shared program.
  • Strong experience translating contractual scope into execution plans and maintaining control over requirements, deliverables, and acceptance.
  • Demonstrated success recovering delayed or underperforming projects and resolving complex delivery issues.
