Oracle Fusion Project Manager - Contract Inside IR35 - Staffordshire, UK

Role Summary

The Oracle Fusion Project Manager owns end-to-end project management and delivery of Oracle Cloud engagements. This is a delivery-accountable role requiring the individual to personally produce, maintain, and defend project artefacts - not delegate their creation - while tracking schedule, cost, and quality outcomes, and acting as the primary customer-facing representative of Mastek at the project level.

Key Responsibilities

1. Project Governance & Artefacts

• Personally author and maintain the Project Charter, Project Plan, and RAID log (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) - not merely review artefacts produced by others
• Establish and run project governance cadence: steering committees, status reporting, gate reviews
• Maintain a single source of truth for project scope, baseline, and change control

2. Delivery & Schedule Management

• Track delivery of milestones against the agreed schedule across all Oracle Cloud workstreams (eg, HCM, Payroll)
• Proactively identify schedule slippage, root-cause it, and drive corrective action plans
• Manage the critical path and dependencies across functional and technical streams

3. Financial Management

• Review and own project financial KPIs - budget vs. actual, margin, effort burn, invoicing milestones
• Flag financial risks early and work with the Programme Manager on mitigation and forecasting
• Support commercial governance including change requests and scope-related cost impacts

4. Risk & Issue Management

• Own the RAID log end-to-end: identify, log, assess impact, assign owners, and drive closure
• Escalate appropriately to the Programme Manager with clear options and recommendations, not just problem statements

5. Stakeholder & Customer Management

• Act as the primary representative of Mastek in all customer interactions at the project level
• Build and maintain trusted relationships with client project sponsors, workstream leads, and delivery counterparts
• Manage customer expectations proactively, ensuring transparency on progress, risks, and issues

6. Team & Delivery Leadership

• Coordinate and direct functional/technical consultants and workstream leads to ensure delivery against plan
• Ensure quality of deliverables through structured review checkpoints
• Support resource planning and utilisation in coordination with delivery leadership
