As the Head of Project Management for Retail Branches and Wealth Management Centre, you will lead the end-to-end design, project delivery, and transformation of DBS’s retail branch footprint and flagship Wealth Management centers in Hong Kong.

Vendor & Supplier Management: Lead procurement, tender evaluation, and contract negotiations. Build and manage a robust network of consultants and suppliers while implementing strict performance metrics and risk management.
Financial Control & Governance: Manage the multi-million-dollar retail CAPEX budget, establishing rigorous cost control, change order management, and financial forecasting protocols.
Regulatory Compliance: Ensure all fit-out projects comply with Hong Kong regulatory and statutory requirements (e.g., BD, FSD, EMSD, BFA, MOE, BEEO, OSH, PNAP) and maintain accurate documentation for audits.
Sustainable Real Estate: Embed ESG and sustainability principles (e.g., LEED, BEAM) into all branch designs and fit-outs.
Stakeholder Management: Regularly engage with Consumer Banking, Finance, and Facility Management on network distribution planning and business case preparation.
Resource Planning: Plan and allocate team resources effectively, considering individual strengths to meet project timelines.

Experience: 12+ years of progressive project delivery experience within Corporate Real Estate, with at least 5 years leading Hong Kong Retail Banking fit-outs or Wealth Management Centre programs.
Track Record: Proven success delivering complex, high-spec retail build-outs from budget to handover.
Domain Knowledge: Strong technical knowledge of interior fitting-out, retail banking design (critical for HK regulatory/statutory requirements), security systems, and digital AV/VC integrations.
