• Job Description
• Senior Oracle EPM Cloud (Planning) Functional Consultant
• YOU MUST BE SC CLEARED OR ELIGIBLE FOR CTC CLEARANCE. TO BE ELIGIBLE YOU MUST HAVE LIVED IN THE UK FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS.
• Deliver. Own. Lead.
• This role is for an Oracle EPM Planning expert who takes ownership.
• 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.
• 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.
• The Opportunity
• 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.
• You’ll work directly with Finance and FP&A stakeholders, translating business needs into robust technical solutions — and then building them yourself.
• While you may mentor or guide others when appropriate, the expectation is clear: you can independently deliver complete Planning Cloud solutions end to end.
• What You’ll Be Responsible For
• Leading and delivering full lifecycle Oracle Planning Cloud implementations
• Designing and building planning models, metadata, forms, dashboards, and user experiences
• Developing and optimising complex business rules, allocations, calculations, and Groovy scripts
• Building and managing integrations using Data Management, EPM Automate, and automation tooling
• Working closely with Finance and FP&A teams to design driver-based planning, forecasting, and reporting processes
• Running workshops, gathering requirements, and communicating clearly with senior stakeholders
• Producing high-quality documentation and supporting testing and go-live activities
• Supporting quarterly Oracle updates, regression testing, and ongoing enhancements
• Qualifications
• What We’re Looking For
• A minimum of 3 end-to-end Oracle Planning Cloud implementations delivered
• Strong hands-on experience across configuration, calculations, integrations, and automation

Proven capability with

• Oracle Planning Cloud (PBCS / EPBCS)
• Smart View
• Data Management
• EPM Automate
• Groovy scripting (highly desirable)
• Excellent communication skills — able to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences
• Comfortable working independently while collaborating effectively within delivery teams
• Highly organised, proactive, and confident managing multiple priorities
• Desirable Experience

You will have

• Finance or accountancy background and/or qualification
• Exposure to other Oracle EPM Cloud modules, including FCCS, ARCS, EDMCS, PCMCS, Narrative Reporting, or Tax Reporting
• Experience migrating from Hyperion Planning to Oracle EPM Cloud
• Why Join?
• 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.
• 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.
