Job Summary
Finance and Administration, Procurement Office is seeking a salaried Academic Wage: Procure to Pay Project Team Lead ( AMP ). This is a full-time (1.00 FTE ), 12-month, fixed-term position. This position is anticipated to last until 01/01/2027.
This position will be used to backfill for those supporting the Administrative Modernization Project ( AMP ) and is anticipated to last for up to two years; however, staffing needs may dictate flexibility in the appointment’s duration.
As a key contributor of the Oregon State University ( OSU ) digital and business transformation effort, the Project Team Lead role will assist in a key phase of OSU’s Administrative Modernization Program ( AMP ). Following initial design and the development of configuration workbooks, the work of AMP moves towards testing and technical readiness for implementation.
The AMP Procure to Pay Project Team Lead will report to the Chief Procurement Officer and be dedicated and assigned to work that supports AMP and the Procure to Pay project area in particular. This position works closely with theDirector ofVendor Payment Strategies.
This role will be responsible for understanding the Workday design, testing, and validation. With support from and in collaboration with the AMP Finance Program Lead and AMP external partners, this position will execute OSU test scenarios in each tenant build and be responsible for understanding the functional configuration in Workday specific to Procure to Pay.
This position will verify help text, validation rules, and notifications to support configuration and will be responsible for updating documentation related to configuration changes (including Future State Process Designs, process flows, configuration workbooks) throughout the implementation. This position works in alignment with the overall AMP program and closely collaborates and partners with the AMP Finance Program Lead to engage stakeholders and experts across the university to assist with communication and change management activities.
AMP will transform OSU into a fully digital university, rebuilding its entire administrative technology environment to facilitate efficient and modern transactions among staff, students, and faculty. This effort will modernize the university’s Enterprise Resource Planning ( ERP ) system (replacing Banner and additional applications), re-engineer core administrative HR, finance, planning and budgeting, post-award grant management, and student tools and processes, and deploy automated workflows in the cloud. This process will also include documenting and updating any new or existing policies associated with these processes. This light and lean cloud-based approach enables better institutional agility and adaptability, exceptionally user-friendly design for students, faculty, staff, and administration who interact with OSU . It also provides OSU the opportunity to lower the cost and time burden of administrative processes.
OSU’s approach will reimagine and redesign all HR, finance, research administration, and budget/planning processes with a human centric design framework based on full automation, alignment with industry best practices, and desired customer journeys. This approach will require significant organizational change management, community member engagement across and outside of the organization, and a strong commitment to equity, inclusivity, and accessibility to design solutions for a broad and diverse collection of customers and community members. We will not undertake this ambitious work alone – OSU will collaborate with industry partners specializing in higher education to deliver on our pioneering vision. We will document every step of our process to support and guide other Oregon institutions who may pursue similar transformative efforts.
