Job Description

MORE THAN YOU EXPECTED

Grant Thornton UK LLP is part of a global network of independent audit, tax and advisory firms, made up of some 58,000 people in over 135 countries. We're a team of independent thinkers who put quality, inclusion and integrity first. All around the world we bring a different experience to our clients. A better experience. One that delivers the expertise they need in a way that goes beyond. Personal, proactive, and agile. That's Grant Thornton.

NEW GROUND WON’T BREAK ITSELF.

Every day our teams help people in businesses and communities to do what is right and achieve their goals.

Grant Thornton’s Business Consulting group consists of Enterprise Applications, Technology, Finance, Operations, Deals and People focus areas. The Enterprise Applications (EA) Practice is responsible for advisory and project implementation services related to Oracle Cloud Applications and Technology in particular, and ERP/HCM applications advisory consultancy more generally.

You will undertake the role of lead consultant specialising in Oracle Cloud Procurement solution definition and implementation. Your activity for the EA Practice will include both pre-sales and post-sales assignments, with the latter in both advisory and project engagements, but with the focus on project delivery roles. Scope of engagements will include services spanning full ERP & HCM solutions, using Oracle Cloud SaaS products in the main, but extending to other parts of the Oracle Cloud footprint and other solutions and technologies where needed.

Within project engagements and sales activity, you will promote a strong working relationship and team spirit with both Grant Thornton colleagues and customer project teams. Additionally, outside specific opportunity and project activity, you will contribute particularly to solution and proposition development and business development.

We’re happy to talk flexible working and consider reduced hours and job shares, we’ll support you to balance your work and life.

A look into the role


As a Procurement Lead Functional Consultant within our Enterprise Applications  practice, you will:

Within a delivery project you will lead the Procurement solution definition and delivery (in collaboration with other senior sales and delivery leaders), able to use your knowledge of Oracle Procurement Cloud functionality to design specific client solutions, and to convince customers of the appropriateness of those solutions.  You will be able to engage in the detail of Procurement solutions using your experience as a Procurement specialist implementation consultant to both lead teams and deliver specialist activity where needed. You will be able to take responsibility both for all functional aspects of an Oracle Cloud Procurement implementation, and to engage in technical discussions to support the project technical teams where needed. You will also be able to own the interaction with senior customer stakeholders, to understand their requirements and build relationships in which they buy into your solution vision. You will be part of the Enterprise Applications Practice team, taking a key role in ERP solution teams (including both on shore and off shore consultants) in the implementation of your ERP and particularly Procurement solutions. You will work collaboratively with the EA practice leaders in defining solutions and with Project Managers, Solutions Architects and implementation consultants in the delivery of customer projects. The EA team is the leading enterprise solutions team within Grant Thornton and your success will be aligned to your ability to build an internal and external brand as an established leader for Oracle Cloud Procurement solutions.

Knowing you’re right for us

Joining us as a Procurement Lead Functional Consultant , the minimum criteria you’ll need is:

Relevant Oracle certification in Cloud Procurement, and multiple years’ experience in similar Consulting/Project roles, covering both successful project delivery and related sales/practice development activity. Your experience will be as an Oracle Procurement Cloud implementation lead consultant individual contributor, with strong experience both in terms of solution design and hands on functional delivery.

It would be great if you had some of the following skills, but don’t worry if you don’t tick every box, we’ll help you develop along the way.

Wider Oracle Cloud ERP/SCM experience, with Certification and project implementation experience in multiple Oracle Cloud ERP/SCM modules Experience of building lasting relationships with C Level and Senior Solution stakeholders. Excellent verbal and written communications – and a demonstrable track record of being able to use those skills to convince customers regarding your solution vision as part of sales and delivery processes Experience in Project Delivery roles encompassing project leadership and oversight alongside your individual contributor responsibilities While much of our project work is conducted in a hybrid manner, willingness to travel to work on customer sites as needed, mostly in UK, but globally by exception, is important.

Knowing we’re right for you

Embracing uniqueness, the culture at Grant Thornton thrives on the contributions of all our people, we never settle for what is easy, we look beyond to deliver the right thing, for everyone. Building an inclusive culture, where we value difference and respect our colleagues helps our people to perform at the best of their ability and realise their potential.

Our open and accessible culture means you’ll interact with leaders who are interested in you and everything you bring to our firm. The things that set you apart, we value them. That’s why we give you the freedom to bring your whole self to work and pursue your passions inside and outside of work.

Beyond the job

Life is more than work. The things you do, and the people you’re with outside of work matter, that’s why we’re happy to look at flexible working options for all our roles, and we’ll always do our best to keep your work and life in balance.

The impact you can make here will go far beyond your day job. From secondments, to fundraising for local charities, or investing in entrepreneurs in the developing world, you’ll be giving back to society. It’s that drive to do the right thing that runs through our every move, grounded in our CLEARR values – Collaboration, Leadership, Excellence, Agility, Respect and Responsibility.

We’re looking for people who want to contribute, spark fresh ideas and go beyond expectations. People who want to be able to proudly do what’s right, for the firm, our clients, our people and themselves. It’s how it should be.
