Cutover & Release Manager | Oracle Cloud ERP | Contract

Our client is midway through a major Oracle ERP transformation — replacing legacy finance and operational systems with a up-to-date Oracle Cloud ERP platform. The program needs an experienced Cutover/Release Manager to join the test workstream and take ownership of cutover and release planning through UAT to go-live.

This program has fallen behind where it needs to be, so we need someone who can hit the ground running — mapping out cutover coordination, building the plans and processes that don't yet exist, and being the calm, decisive presence in the room when things go wrong at go-live.

What you'll be doing:

- Planning and owning the end-to-end cutover/release schedule, from lead-up through to go-live
- Defining go-live roles so every team knows exactly what they're doing, and when
- Setting up go-live coordination processes, including standing up and managing the ticket/issue queue
- Building detailed cutover plans,



run sheets and support material to the level of granularity a complex ERP go-live demands
- Managing major issues in real time during launch — thinking on your feet and adapting the plan as needed
- Mapping out and coordinating activity across multiple work areas ahead of go-live
- Supporting the Program Manager and working closely with the UAT Lead through cutover, go-live and into early life support

What we're looking for:

- Proven Cutover/Release Manager experience on large-scale ERP programs (Oracle Cloud ERP highly regarded)
- A track record of planning and running go-live events for complex, multi-workstream programs
- Experience setting up and running issue/ticket management processes during go-live
- Someone highly responsive, calm under pressure and comfortable changing plans on the spot
- Available to start immediately

Contract, initially through to end of November 2026 (extension likely depending on program progress). Apply today!
