      Elire LLC is a growing consulting firm that helps organizations modernize and optimize their enterprise systems and business processes. For nearly 20 years, we have partnered with clients across many industries to deliver practical, high-quality solutions spanning PeopleSoft, Oracle Cloud, Treasury, ERP, HCM, EPM, and managed services.

      Position Overview

      Elire is seeking an experienced Project Manager / Thread Lead - PeopleSoft Financials to support a large-scale, multi-pillar international PeopleSoft implementation. This is not a traditional project management role - we are looking for a seasoned PeopleSoft Financials professional who has worked their way through the suite as a functional consultant and grown into delivery leadership. You understand the modules from the inside out and can see pitfalls before they surface.

      You will serve as both the functional thread lead and project manager for the Financials workstream on a multi-year international program - accountable for delivery quality, team coordination, client confidence, and keeping the workstream aligned with overall program goals. You will work closely with the Program Manager, client stakeholders, and internal delivery leadership throughout the engagement.

      Manage the Financials workstream as a dedicated project manager, overseeing scope, schedule, resources, risks, and issues

      Coordinate with the Program Manager and other thread leads to maintain alignment across all program pillars

      Facilitate workstream planning sessions, status reporting, and client-facing milestone reviews, managing dependencies with other workstreams including HCM, ELM, and EPM

      Maintain clear documentation, action tracking, and issue resolution logs throughout the engagement
      Client Engagement & Stakeholder Management

      Serve as the trusted Financials advisor and senior point of contact for client stakeholders on the financial workstream

      Lead functional workshops, requirements discussions, and solution review sessions with client finance leadership

      Communicate progress, decisions, risks, and escalations clearly and confidently to both client and internal leadership, building credibility through deep functional knowledge and consistent delivery
      Team Leadership & Mentorship

      Lead, mentor, and guide the Financials team through all phases of the implementation, building functional problem-solving, client communication, and delivery accountability

      Promote collaboration across threads and support a high-performance team culture throughout the program
      Required Qualifications

      10+ years of PeopleSoft Financials consulting and implementation experience

      Deep hands-on functional expertise across core Financials modules (GL, AP, AR, AM, PC, or equivalent); broader Oracle or ERP ecosystem familiarity a plus

      Proven experience leading a project workstream on a large-scale PeopleSoft implementation, ideally as a Financials functional consultant who has transitioned into delivery leadership

      Strong ability to communicate complex financial system topics to both technical teams and business stakeholders

      Demonstrated ability to anticipate delivery risks and resolve issues proactively

      Experience on complex, multi-pillar enterprise implementations across the full lifecycle - fit-gap, configuration, testing, cutover, and go-live support

      Competitive compensation, bonus opportunities, Unlimited PTO, 401(k) match, medical, dental, and additional benefits

      Opportunity for long-term growth and expanded leadership responsibilities as the program scales
