Oracle Environment & Release Lead

Reading, Havant or Thatcham - Hybrid working

3 Month Contract

The Environment and Release Manager role will provide leadership and accountability for two major Oracle ERP projects. They will use their knowledge to agree and document an environment and release strategy to govern and manage the requirements for Infrastructure and Application Development for both on-premise EBS and Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications. This will require the development of schedules, coordinating changes, releases, and deployments in a complex technology landscape, implementing and managing integrated environments through the end-to-end project lifecycle.

Roles and Responsibilities:

• Lead and govern the technical release processes required to implement changes to our integrated on-premise and Cloud ERPs, whilst assuring the quality of deliverables.
• Responsible for agreeing, documenting, and managing the environment strategy, plan, and release schedule for two major projects, working with the delivery partner, project teams, support teams, and wider stakeholders.
• Develop, manage, and own the environment build process, ensuring it is repeatable, stable, and secure.
• Ensure the project environment estate is maintained and compliant with the latest Oracle releases/patching, whilst carefully managing project requirements to minimize impact.
• Work with environment owners to govern user access to environments as agreed in the environment strategy.

This role requires someone with extensive experience working within complex and integrated Oracle ERP environments. You will need to have strong interpersonal skills to collaborate with both technical and non-technical team members across several teams. This role requires a high-level understanding of the infrastructure and technologies and may require some hands-on technical support; however, this is mostly a management role. A systematic, disciplined, and analytical approach to problem-solving is also required, along with demonstrable leadership and great communication skills, particularly in presenting, collaborating, and partnering with stakeholders.

Your skillset for this role will include:

• Environment & Release management experience with Oracle EBusiness Suite.
• Environment & Release management experience with Oracle OCI & Oracle Fusion.
• Environment & Release management experience with Oracle OIC & other integration technologies.
• Experience managing multiple release streams across multiple applications, managing maintenance, vendor releases, and patches alongside project schedules.
• Experience developing a strategy, approach, and then implementing and managing fully integrated environments using Oracle EBS, OIC, and OCI/Fusion (HCM cloud) technologies.
• Experience in establishing product/delivery specific environment and release strategies and plans, confident working with a wide range of stakeholders.
