• Work collaboratively with Finance, AP operations, Supply Chain, IT, and the ERP project team to ensure end-to-end process alignment.
• Support operational readiness, training content review, and change‑impact assessments.

• Lead and participate in System Integration Testing (SIT) by creating test scenarios, validating results, and troubleshooting process defects.
• Support User Acceptance Testing (UAT) through test coordination, execution support, and issue resolution.
• Provide critical input into cutover planning, go‑live readiness assessments, and hypercare support.

• Act as a turnkey resource to the AP Leader by temporarily supporting AP operations impacted by system changes.
• Train AP staff on new Oracle P2P features, workflows, and process changes.
• Provide process problem‑solving and rapid troubleshooting during the ERP transition period.
• Assist with knowledge transfer to permanent staff and ensure smooth handoffs.

• Proven expertise with Oracle Procurement / Procure‑to‑Pay (P2P) modules, including three‑way match, purchasing, receiving, and AP invoicing.
• Demonstrated experience supporting ERP transformation or large system implementations (Oracle Cloud ERP preferred).
• Strong understanding of AP process controls, invoice workflows, payment runs, and exception management.
• Experience writing or reviewing testing scripts for SIT/UAT.
