across Fortune 500 companies, service providers and the public sector. WWT is actively hiring a Senior Project

Manager based in Singapore to lead Financial Services infrastructure programmes across Asia-Pacific.

Role summary:

The Senior Project Manager is responsible for managing large and complex technical projects across multiple

workstreams, leveraging project management best practices to drive continuous improvement and consistently

deliver high-quality outcomes. Operating with significant latitude and independent judgment, the Senior PM weighs

the interests of multiple stakeholders, acts with the highest professionalism, and serves as a trusted advisor to clients

and internal partners. In this Singapore-based Financial Services role the incumbent also mentors Project Managers

and Coordinators and contributes to the health of the wider PMO practice.

Key responsibilities:

• Manage the day-to-day operational and tactical aspects of multiple concurrent projects, defining interdependencies and actively managing the critical path.
• Manage client interaction and expectations across multiple Financial Services engagements and build strong, durable customer relationships.
• Implement engagement review and quality assurance procedures in line with WWT methodology to ensure profitable, successful execution measured against regional goals and customer satisfaction.
• Proactively manage changes in project scope, identify potential crises and devise contingency plans; minimise WWT exposure and risk across the portfolio.
• Manage and analyse profitability, revenue, margins, bill rates and utilisation across projects; explain variances with root cause and drive corrective action.
• Own resource planning across the portfolio, anticipating capacity conflicts and aligning staffing to delivery priorities before gaps surface.
• Review high-level deliverables and design stakeholder-tiered communications, from delivery team status through to executive programme health briefings.
• Support the presales process, service scoping and customer relationship building.
• Coach and develop Project Managers and Project Coordinators on your engagements, delegating intentionally and giving real-time feedback.
• Contribute playbooks, retrospectives and methodology enhancements that raise delivery standards across the PMO practice.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Business, IT or a related field.
• 10+ years of project management experience with an active PMP or PRINCE2 certification.
• Prior work experience with multinational customers in Financial Services.
• Experience delivering projects or programmes with total value of US$200K - US$500K or above.
• Prior networking, data centre transformation and data centre refresh project management experience strongly desired.
• Experience working with multiple stakeholders across a diverse OEM landscape on the same project or programme.
• Delivery experience in network infrastructure and data centre hardware and software covering OEMs such as Cisco, HP, Dell, VMware, EMC and NetApp - at least two mandatory.
• Proven success managing budgeted project P&L, including changes in cost and revenue, with the ability to understand, analyse and create financial reports.
• Working knowledge of both the theoretical and practical aspects of project management.
• Proven experience in people management, strategic planning, risk management and change management.
• Proficiency with project management tooling such as Clarity, Microsoft Project, Excel and Smartsheet.
• Prior experience with a large system integrator is an added advantage (not mandatory).
• Fluency in one or more regional languages is highly desirable given Asia-Pacific portfolio coverage (not mandatory).

Knowledge, skills and capabilities:

• Strong theoretical and practical knowledge of project management, with the ability to coach others and adapt methods to the engagement context.
• High financial acumen across forecasting, profitability analysis, variance explanation and corrective action.
• Strong facilitation, stakeholder management, influencing and negotiation skills in a matrix environment.
• Excellent documentation, written, verbal and presentation communication skills, including executive-level reporting.
• Strong problem-solving and critical-thinking capability with a solutions-first approach under pressure.

Attributes we look for

• Passion to deliver on project objectives and make the customer successful.
• Willingness to roll up sleeves to get things done, and proactive initiative to implement improvements that contribute to the whole team's success.
• Ability to work independently and track aggressively to project timelines.
