What you will be doing
- Track delivery milestones against the requirements and start criteria of the downstream programme; maintain a detailed dependency map.

- Essential: Demonstrated dependency and critical-path management across teams that do not report to you (influence, not authority); experience on system separation, decommissioning, carve-out or migration work, or programmes with hard external predecessors; comfortable with technical delivery detail; strong structuring and written communication for senior audiences; hands-on with delivery tooling (e.g. Jira, Confluence) and strong PowerPoint/Excel
- Nice to have: Domain exposure to customer account platforms, payments, wallets or ledgers; hybrid agile delivery experience and familiarity with agile governance; experience working alongside operations teams through technical change; Hong Kong delivery experience and spoken Cantonese/Mandarin
- Sector background: Exposure to payments or other regulated financial platforms is preferred but not essential
