The Global Program Controls organization provides governance, reporting, controls processes, cost management support, and portfolio visibility to help Oracle Cloud Infrastructure deliver global data center programs with greater consistency, transparency, and execution discipline.
The Project Controls Program Lead will support Project Intake, cost management, reporting, data quality, and cross-functional coordination activities across the pre-execution and execution lifecycle. This role helps capture, organize, validate, and report project information, including early demand signals, letters of intent, project intake data, planning inputs, commercial status, cost assumptions, schedule milestones, risks, dependencies, stakeholder decisions, and readiness indicators.
