This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to a key banking technology programme spanning multiple project phases, from requirements analysis and solution design through testing, implementation and post-go-live support.

Working closely with Singapore and Head Office (HO) project teams, you will play a pivotal role in project governance, business requirements documentation, User Acceptance Testing (UAT), risk and issue tracking, and go-live readiness. The role is ideal for a hands-on professional who enjoys driving project deliverables, coordinating stakeholders and ensuring smooth implementation in a dynamic banking environment.

• Support current-state process mapping, requirements gathering, user stories, acceptance criteria and Singapore-specific localisation.
• Coordinate Functional Specification Document (FSD) and Technical Specification Document (TSD) reviews, consolidating feedback, identifying gaps and tracking changes and approvals.
• Maintain project documentation and traceability records using Jira, Confluence and controlled document repositories, ensuring proper governance and audit readiness.

2. UAT, Testing & Implementation Readiness

• Coordinate UAT planning and execution, including system access, test data, tester schedules, test cases and progress tracking.

• Support data cleansing, migration validation, dress rehearsals, cutover planning, command-centre arrangements and go-live readiness assessments.
• Coordinate post-implementation hypercare, Day 1/Day 2 outcomes, outstanding items, lessons learned and handover to Business-As-Us-ual (BAU) teams.

3. Stakeholder Engagement & Project Reporting

• Liaise closely with Singapore and Head Office project teams, business stakeholders and technology teams to maintain alignment throughout the project lifecycle.
• Maintain accurate project trackers, status reports, documentation and supporting evidence to provide clear visibility of progress and outstanding deliverables.
• Drive timely follow-up on project actions, issues, risks and dependencies, escalating material concerns to the appropriate stakeholders.
• Facilitate cross-functional discussions to resolve gaps, clarify requirements and support effective project execution.
• Support programme leadership with project coordination, implementation planning and operational readiness activities.

Requirements

• Minimum 3-5 years of relevant experience in business analysis, project delivery or Project Management Office (PMO) support within banking, payments or financial services.
• Hands-on exposure to the project lifecycle, including requirements gathering, design reviews, System Integration Testing (SIT), UAT, defect management, data migration, cutover and post-implementation support.
• Proficiency in Jira, Confluence and Microsoft Office applications, particularly Excel, PowerPoint and Word.
• Experience in project documentation, document control, status reporting, audit evidence management and deliverable tracking.
• Strong analytical, organisational and documentation skills, with excellent attention to detail.
• Effective communication and stakeholder coordination skills, with the ability to work across Singapore and Head Office teams.
• Ability to manage competing priorities, meet project deadlines and consistently follow through on deliverables.
• A structured, proactive and dependable working style, with strong problem-solving and coordination capabilities.
