Recently accepted a job in oracle/financial systems consulting. I have some experience in systems but mostly FP&A and operations. I have a few cloud certifications as well.

How tough will it be for me to get up to speed and are there any recommended trainings I should do? Please let me know!

Oracle trainings are across the board pretty terrible. In my experience most of your training will come on the job. A good manager will understand that you are new to Oracle and will tell you what you need to know. You literally never stop learning so just do your best to understand your process area and how it affects others at a high level.
