• Hands-on experience maintaining project risk registers and issue logs, with a track record of catching and mitigating risk before it hits delivery.
• Working knowledge of software testing phases (unit, integration, system, regression, UAT) and how each fits into an implementation timeline.
• Working knowledge of both Agile/Scrum and Waterfall delivery approaches, and judgment on when to apply each.

Responsibilities

• Develop and review business cases – lead the formulation and evaluation of comprehensive project business cases including ROI calculations and detailed costing.
• Plan and drive delivery — build project plans, work breakdown structures, and schedules for digital/software implementation projects, from initiation through go-live and hypercare.
• Manage scope, schedule, and budget — track progress against baseline, manage the change-control process for scope changes, and report cost and schedule variances.
• Coordinate cross-functional delivery — align business analysts, developers, QA, vendors, and operations teams around a shared plan and shared milestones.
• Apply testing-phase knowledge — understand unit, integration, system, regression, and UAT testing phases well enough to plan realistic test cycles and set clear exit criteria for each stage.
• Partner with vendor and QA teams — work closely with vendor delivery teams and internal QA to make sure test coverage spans all angles — functional, integration, performance, security, and regression — not just the happy path.
• Validate go-live readiness — review test results and defect burn-down against agreed exit criteria, and confirm sign-offs are in place before approving deployment.
• Identify risks early — proactively surface technical, resourcing, vendor, and dependency risks during planning and throughout delivery, not just when they materialize.
• Maintain a live risk register — log each risk with owner, likelihood, impact, and mitigation/contingency plan; review and update it on a regular cadence.
• Track and elevate — monitor risk status through to closure, accelerate material risks to sponsors and steering committees promptly, and report issue logs with root cause and resolution status.
• Manage dependencies — map cross-project and cross-team dependencies and sequence delivery to avoid downstream schedule risk.
• Project Checklists, Compliance & Governance — maintain checklists covering compliance, security, data privacy, and operational readiness at milestones.
• Change Management & Readiness — coordinate training, SOP updates, and readiness sign-off.
• Qualifications & Skills — project management certification preferred.
• Proficient in English and Bahasa Malaysia. Mandarin proficiency is an added advantage.
