Oracle is leading the digital revolution. We are empowering nearly half a million businesses across the globe to turn untapped potential into real business value. Kick-start your career with some real responsibility and an incredible learning experience.

What is OWL?

Oracle Women’s Leadership (OWL) began in 2006 as a grassroots effort in response to overwhelming demand from our female employees to offer greater opportunity to enhance skills and develop leadership potential. OWL has evolved into a global program within the Learning and Development function dedicated to leadership development of Oracle women across the globe.

Each region has an OWL Regional Lead who reports into the Executive Director of OWL. This global team is responsible for the coordination of the strategy and objectives of OWL. Within each region, local communities are led by inspiring Community Leaders who volunteer their time to coordinate and host events for their local community.

This role reports into the OWL Regional Lead for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and will help to support a community of over 35 Community Leaders across over 40 countries. Within this role, there is always something new to learn and no day is the same; the number of OWL communities across the region is ever growing and the work you will do with these communities will be diverse, challenging and rewarding. The OWL role is constantly evolving meaning you will have the flexibility to take the initiative and drive your own projects.
