It Project Manager

Description:

About the Role:

As the IT Project Manager, you will play a pivotal role in the successful planning and execution of IT programs and projects across APAC.

Reporting to the Regional Head of Solution Design and Delivery, you will oversee, coordinate and take accountability of the delivery of projects to time, budget, and scope in line with the appropriate project management methodology, processes, templates, policies, and controls. Having a true business partner mindset is required in order to work closely and understand the business requirements, and where needed, recommend different approaches. Furthermore, you will collaborate with regional and global functional heads to ensure the targeted solution is in alignment (and remains in alignment) with Global IT architecture and strategies.

Whilst this is a project manager role, it will require you to roll up your sleeves, managing the day-to-day project resources, stakeholder communication and scope dependencies. This requires the attitude of someone who enjoys being involved in the daily details of each project.

With our Global and Regional initiatives ‘Transform Olympus’ and ‘Transform Asia’, this is a truly remarkable opportunity to join a leading Global med-tech organisation.
