Accenture's Oracle practice - and we make the new happen now. Every day, we imagine the future and bring it to life using design thinking, agile development methodologies, and smart technology including IoT, automation, and AI.

These companies face the same technology, data, AI, cybersecurity, and productivity challenges as large enterprises, but need solutions that are faster to deploy, more repeatable, and right-sized for their scale. Accenture Edge integrates seamlessly with Avanade, our joint venture with Microsoft, delivering deep cloud, AI, and security expertise so clients can adopt AI at speed.

You Are:

A senior Oracle Financials deployment authority who has landed complex go-lives and knows exactly what it takes to get an organization across the line safely. You command the full cutover lifecycle - cutover planning, mock cutovers, hypercare, and stabilization - and you bring the functional depth in Oracle Fusion Financials to anticipate, diagnose, and resolve issues before they become go-live risks.

At the Senior Manager level, you orchestrate program-wide deployment governance, align multi-workstream teams to a single cutover clock, and give client executives the confidence to press go. You do not just manage deployments - you own them.

The Work:

• Own the end-to-end deployment strategy for Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials implementations - defining the cutover approach, sequencing, runbook structure, and go-live readiness framework across all work streams

• Develop, maintain, and execute the master cutover plan and runbook, including detailed task sequencing, ownership assignments, duration estimates, critical path analysis, and rollback triggers

• Lead two or more mock cutovers - simulate the full go-live sequence end-to-end, identify gaps, refine timing, and incorporate lessons learned into the production cutover plan

• Serve as the senior functional voice on Oracle Financials deployment decisions - apply deep knowledge of Oracle Fusion to resolve cutover sequencing, balancing, and reconciliation issues in real time

• Coordinate across all work streams - integrations, data migration, security, testing, change management, and infrastructure - to align dependencies and eliminate deployment-day surprises

• Define and govern cutover entry and exit criteria; chair cutover command center during go-live execution and make or accelerate go/no-go decisions with full transparency to client and program leadership

• Lead data migration cutover activities - validate final data loads, reconcile migrated balances to source systems, and sign off on opening balance integrity for Financials go-live

• Produce executive-ready deployment status reporting - milestone burn-down, cutover readiness dashboards, and risk registers updated to the day

• Identify, elevate, and resolve deployment risks and cross-stream dependencies proactively; present mitigation options to client leadership and Accenture program management

• Contribute to Accenture Edge deployment accelerator development - reusable cutover runbook templates, readiness checklists, and hypercare playbooks for mid-market Oracle Financials deployments

• Mentor and develop deployment analysts and functional consultants on cutover planning discipline, Oracle Financials go-live patterns, and structured deployment execution

  Travel may be required for this role. The amount of travel will vary from 0 to 100% depending on business need and client requirements
