JOB DESCRIPTION

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are seeking a seasoned executive to build and lead FOX’s enterprise applications modernization program across all business units. Reporting to the CIO, the SVP, Enterprise Applications will own strategy and execution for mission-critical platforms including Workday (Financials, HCM, Payroll), Coupa, Graphite, Infor, Blackline, and related systems supporting complex operations across FOX Corporation.

This leader will simplify and modernize enterprise workflows, integrations, reporting, and automation to deliver measurable improvements in cycle time, data quality, and operating effectiveness without disrupting close stability, controls, compliance, or audit readiness. Success requires a builder mentality, strong vendor governance, and the ability to translate business priorities into shipped capabilities with clear outcomes across Finance, HR, and Operations.

SNAPSHOT OF YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build and lead FOX’s enterprise applications modernization program, simplifying the landscape and delivering measurable gains in cycle time, automation, and operating effectiveness.

• Deep expertise in enterprise financial systems, processes, and controls strong command of record-to-report, procure-to-pay, order-to-cash, FP&A, internal controls, compliance, and audit requirements in complex, regulated environments.

• Protect the CFO’s non-negotiables through disciplined cutovers, parallel runs where required, and transparent risk management tied to audit readiness and reporting accuracy.

• Partner with C-level stakeholders to set priorities, remove friction, and drive adoption through clear communications and measurable success metrics.

• Modernize Workday (HCM/Financials/Payroll) and Coupa by engineering durable workflows, clean data, and a release model that ships improvements continuously without disrupting close or controls.

• Create the integration + automation foundation so FOX can scale change safely across business units.

• Operationalize AI in enterprise workflows with clear guardrails (security, role-based access, auditability, vendor governance) and a focus on outcomes, not “AI-washed” features.

• Build and lead a high-leverage team of enterprise application builders (product-minded app leaders + engineers + automation/data talent) who can prototype, productionize, and scale responsibly.

• Run vendors as outcomes-based partners, accountable to delivery, quality, cost, and speed while keeping FOX in control of architecture and data.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

• Executive presence with CIO/CFO/CHRO: simplifies complexity, makes tradeoffs explicit, and translates business strategy into shipped capabilities and measurable results.

• Executive leadership owning enterprise systems in complex, matrixed organizations. Must be able to drive decisions and outcomes across Finance, HR, and Operations.

• Deep hands-on modernization experience with Workday (Financials + HCM + Payroll) and Procure-to-Pay (Coupa or equivalent), including integrations and operating model change.

• Proven ability to build and ship: create a roadmap, deliver releases continuously, and scale adoption without disrupting close, controls, reporting, or audit readiness.

• Strong integration and data architecture fluency (APIs/iPaaS, orchestration, data pipelines, workflow automation) with a track record reducing manual work and exception volume.

• Finance-grade delivery discipline: testing strategy, cutover/go-no-go criteria, parallel runs when needed, change management, and stakeholder communication that builds trust.

• Ability to recruit, lead, and retain a high-leverage team of builders (enterprise engineers, product-minded app leaders, automation/data talent).

• Strong vendor and contract leadership.

NICE TO HAVE, BUT NOT A DEALBREAKER

• Experience in media, entertainment, or multi-brand enterprises (multiple business units, shared services, competing priorities).

• Experience modernizing adjacent finance systems (e.g., record-to-report, close tooling, reconciliations, FP&A analytics) and reducing “process debt,” not just tech debt.

• AI/RPA/ML experience in production for enterprise workflows with clear governance (security, RBAC, auditability) and measurable impact (cycle time, deflection, accuracy, exception reduction).

• M&A / post-acquisition integration experience across enterprise platforms and data.

• Strong security/compliance partnership experience (SOX support, audit partnership, vendor risk management).
