Working Style:

You'll be based in the Borough for 3 days a week, playing a key role in serving the local community. Whether you're working on the frontline or behind the scenes, you'll be part of a dedicated team making a real difference to residents' lives.

What you'll be doing:

Working closely with the Financial Reporting and Compliance Officer, you'll manage and maintain the Oracle EPM platform - including the Planning, Narrative Reporting and Workforce Modelling modules. You'll process service requests, update key data, monitor integrations and help troubleshoot system issues, liaising with our central system teams and the Oracle Help Desk when needed.

You'll also help create training content using Oracle Guided Learning (we'll give you the training you need), contribute to system documentation and user guides, and support our finance teams in training cost centre managers.

What you'll bring

You'll be AAT qualified (or bring equivalent experience), and have a relevant computing qualification or demonstrable system admin expertise. You'll know your way around Oracle EPM and understand the financial processes it supports, including planning and forecasting cycles.

A keen eye for detail and a methodical approach are key - especially when updating data, configuring systems or managing access via the Oracle OCI console. You'll also need the communication skills to support users confidently and collaborate with colleagues across departments.

Whether your background is in local government, public services or the private sector, we're looking for someone who's passionate about improving how we work and who sees the value in what great financial systems can help us achieve for our community.

Why join us

At RBKC, we're all in - investing in our people, our communities and our future.

This is a new and important role, offering you the chance to get in early and grow with us as we expand our use of Oracle EPM to include Strategic Modelling and ESG reporting.

You'll join a forward-thinking finance team that's helping shape how the Council works. You'll be part of modernising our core systems, contributing to innovation and improvement, and helping deliver better value across every service we run.
