This role will commence with a 12 month fixed-term contract and will provide a good pathway to further opportunities within the group. There is a preference for the role to be based in Singapore, however candidates with relevant experience based elsewhere in the APAC region will be considered.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead all phases of security-systems projects including design, bid management, installation oversight, and final testing and commissioning for new builds and MACs across the region
• Develop detailed project plans defining scope, schedule, deliverables, resources, budget, and risk management strategies
• Design and review security system layouts (CCTV, access control, intrusion, intercom, etc.) in accordance with company standards and project requirements
• Evaluate vendor bids, manage the selection process, and oversee contractors through installation to ensure quality, compliance, and documentation accuracy
• Coordinate and lead meetings with cross-functional stakeholders (Workplace, AV, Program Delivery, IT/Network, Security Operations, GC, and integrators) to align project scope, schedule, and execution
• Oversee system testing, commissioning, and handover activities to ensure full functionality, proper documentation, and client sign-off
• Track project performance, issues, and financials — including cost and schedule variances — and apply structured change-management processes as needed
• Maintain all project documentation and ensure client satisfaction, safety, and quality throughout the project lifecycle

• 5+ years of project management experience leading enterprise-wide security-systems deployments (new builds and/or large MAC/upgrades) and construction/physical infrastructure projects
• 5+ years of experience managing vendors, including installation oversight, quality assurance, change control, commissioning, and project close-out
• Expert knowledge of Genetec VMS and Access Control, with preference for experience in cloud-based deployments
• Excellent project management skills with proficiency managing numerous concurrent project deliverables with little supervision
• Strong communicator and collaborator: able to influence cross-functional teams, engage at technical and executive levels, and drive consensus
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Project Management, or related field and PMP/CISSP certification is preferred
