What this job involves:

Directing projects every step of the way

You'll develop big ideas that will spark the effective management and successful execution of all phases of a project—from initiating to final handover to the client. You'll need to carefully identify and take note of our clients' needs, and figure out what exactly needs to be done. This involves defining the scope of the work and expected outcome, at the same time detailing all the necessary objectives to get there. While you do all of these, you'll need to keep tabs on company resources and allocate them effectively to finish projects within budget. From onset to completion of the project, you'll represent our clients, helping them organise and analyse tender and procurement for all contractors and suppliers.

Building strong teams and business reputation

One your main concerns will be to produce high-performing teams that drive successful project execution. You'll also represent and promote the company throughout projects, and seize additional opportunities along the road.

Sound like you? To apply you need to be:

A client-centred veteran

You must have a degree in a relevant field, and five years' experience in design, construction, project management in interior fit-out projects for multinational clients. It would be excellent if you have a strong background in all aspects of interior fit-out management—including management on schedule, quality, cost and risk management, and negotiation, to name a few. Your expertise in surveying a client's basic needs, completing commercial assessments, and preparing PM proposals will also be put to the test. Your quickness in understanding and dealing with a situation will be indispensable especially in carrying out value engineering, build ability analysis, critical reviews of design and documentation.

A business savvy and action-oriented leader

To excel in this role, you should have a high level of understanding and technical expertise in business. Are you well versed in project products, systems, processes, tools and best practices? Can you handle the site operations no matter how complex it may be? As a business expert, you should also be in the know of the trends in key industries and the local market, as well as contractual, financial and time-related goals.

Likewise, you should have a great sense of urgency when it comes to solving problems, improving products or services, finding new markets, and implementing new strategies. You should know how to negotiate to generate risk-assessed solutions, and how to handle ambiguities.

A great communicator with superb admin skills

Can you speak and write in English well? Do you have what it takes to lead and motivate your project team members? Are you capable of leading by example and fostering a creative environment? Are you also proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Project, and PowerPoint) and project-related software such as CAD? If yes, then we are very much excited to meet you
