Acting as the key liaison between Group project sponsors, APAC leadership, and local entities across multiple Asian markets, you will ensure seamless execution, stakeholder alignment, and regulatory compliance in a dynamic B2B2C insurance environment.

Project 1: Company Restructuring

• Assess the requested changes from multiple perspectives, including customer impact (information/consent processes per local insurance regulations), partner relationships (information sharing and governance), and strict regulatory adherence.
• Identify constraints, blockers, and interdependencies that could affect the restructuring timeline, ensuring full alignment with local implementation schedules.
• Oversee the end-to-end steering of the restructuring project, including stakeholder coordination, project structuring, preparation and management of the restructuring plan, and active engagement with local representatives.

General & Strategic Oversight

• Manage conflicting priorities across multiple workstreams, identifying and mitigating risks in close collaboration with relevant stakeholders.
• Assess the strategic implications of project requests, propose necessary changes, and make informed decisions regarding cost, quality, and timelines while ensuring value creation for the business.
• Minimum of 10 years of proven experience in project management and consulting, ideally involving global or regional projects with stakeholders across multiple countries.
• Strong problem-solving, interpersonal, and communication skills, with a high degree of autonomy and the ability to engage effectively with C-level stakeholders.
• Demonstrated ability to manage conflicting priorities, assess strategic implications, and make informed decisions regarding cost, quality and timelines while ensuring business value.
• Proven track record of identifying and mitigating risks during project implementation, in close collaboration with relevant stakeholders.
• Knowledge of, and experience in, insurance operations would be considered an advantage.
• Proficiency in English and Mandarin Chinese (written and oral) is mandatory.
