Oracle Application Manager

Job Description

Oracle Applications Manager (Oracle Fusion)

\n

Location: Fairfield, OH (onsite 3 days/week required)

\n

Type: Contract-to-hire preferred, open to contractor initially 6 – 12 months

\n

\n

Overview

\n

This is less of a traditional manager role and more of a hands-on Oracle Fusion expert who can become the go-to resource for the business. The biggest need is strong Oracle Fusion knowledge and the ability to troubleshoot issues, support users, drive adoption, and help stabilize the environment post-implementation.

\n

\n

Current Environment

\n

\n
• Oracle Fusion went live at 3 sites (out of 20 planned) in Fall 2025.

\n

• Organization is currently in a stabilization and user adoption phase.

\n

• Significant need for end-user support, training, and issue resolution.

\n

• Working with an offshore MSP that currently provides support.

\n

• One Oracle Analyst currently on the team.

\n

• Approximately 300 Oracle Fusion users across Finance, Supply Chain, and Manufacturing.

\n

\n

\n

Key Gap

\n

\n
• Deep Oracle Fusion expertise, ideally someone who has supported a post go-live environment.

\n

• Needs to understand root-cause analysis and solve issues internally rather than simply routing tickets to the MSP.

\n

• Looking for a technical Oracle resource, not a people manager.

\n

• Must be comfortable owning support, troubleshooting, user training, and vendor coordination.

\n

\n

\n

What They're Looking For

\n

\n
• 7+ years Oracle ERP experience with at least 3+ years of Oracle Fusion Cloud.

\n

• Strong functional knowledge, ideally in Oracle Financials (GL, AP, AR, Fixed Assets, Cash Management).

\n

• Understanding of Supply Chain and Manufacturing integrations.

\n

• Experience managing MSPs or support vendors.

\n

• Experience with:

\n

• Incident management

\n

• Change control

\n

• Quarterly Oracle updates

\n

• Security roles and user access

\n

• User training and adoption

\n

\n

\n

Culture / Personality Fit

\n

\n
• Standex is not highly structured or process-heavy.

\n

• Employees wear multiple hats and work independently.

\n

• Someone from a large enterprise environment who expects significant support structure may struggle.

\n

• Needs to be proactive, self-sufficient, and comfortable operating with ambiguity.

\n

• Strong communication skills are critical as they will work directly with end users and business stakeholders daily.

\n

\n

\n

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

\n

\n
• Serve as the primary Oracle Fusion contact for end users.

\n

• Support users through issues, training, and process questions.

\n

• Manage and hold the offshore MSP accountable.

\n

• Help transition support knowledge from the MSP to internal resources.

\n

• Drive user adoption and reduction of workarounds/spreadsheets.

\n

• Perform root-cause analysis and coordinate fixes.

\n

• Partner with business users across Finance, Supply Chain, and Manufacturing.

\n

• Help shape the Oracle roadmap as additional sites are brought online.

\n

\n

\n
