SVP, Enterprise Applications

We are seeking a seasoned executive to build and lead FOX’s enterprise applications modernization program across all business units, simplifying and modernizing enterprise workflows, integrations, reporting, and automation to deliver measurable improvements in cycle time, data quality, and operating effectiveness.

Requirements

• Build and lead FOX’s enterprise applications modernization program
• Simplify and modernize enterprise workflows, integrations, reporting, and automation
• Deep expertise in enterprise financial systems, processes, and controls
• Protect the CFO’s non-negotiables through disciplined cutovers, parallel runs where required, and transparent risk management
• 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
• Run vendors as outcomes-based partners, accountable to delivery, quality, cost, and speed while keeping FOX in control of architecture and data
• Executive presence with CIO/CFO/CHRO: simplifies complexity, makes tradeoffs explicit, and translates business strategy into shipped capabilities and measurable results
• 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
