Regional Project Management Officer, IFRS 17 & IFRS 9

A leading regional insurer is seeking a hands-on Project Management Officer to support a multi-year, multi-entity IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 transformation programme.

Working closely with the PMO Lead, you will provide structure, governance and visibility across Finance, Actuarial, IT, regional business units and external implementation partners.

This is not a passive project-tracking position. You will be expected to assess delivery updates critically, challenge plans and assumptions, identify risks and dependencies, and ensure that practical recovery actions are implemented when delivery moves off track.

Key Responsibilities

Maintain integrated project plans, milestones, baselines, dependencies and critical paths
Review and challenge workstream plans, timelines, assumptions and resource requirements
Identify schedule variances, delivery risks and cross-workstream dependencies
Analyse project issues by assessing root cause, impact, available options and required actions
Drive recovery actions and hold delivery owners accountable for agreed timelines
Consolidate updates across Finance, Actuarial, IT, business and vendor workstreams
Maintain RAID logs, action logs, decision registers and change-request records
Prepare project dashboards, status reports and SteerCo materials
Highlight key risks, decisions, escalations and areas requiring management attention
Coordinate governance meetings, workshops, testing activities and planning sessions
Monitor vendor deliverables, commitments and project milestones
Maintain project documentation, approvals, sign-offs, meeting minutes and audit trails
Support alignment across IFRS 17, IFRS 9, GL, financial reporting and regulatory reporting workstreams

Skills And Experience

Approximately 3 to 5 years of experience in PMO, project management, consulting or transformation
MUST have exposure to IFRS 17, IFRS 9, insurance or regulatory transformation
Experience working within a structured project-governance environment
Hands-on experience maintaining project plans, RAID logs, action trackers, decision registers and SteerCo reporting
Strong structured problem-solving skills, with the ability to assess root causes, impacts and recovery options
Confidence challenging unrealistic delivery plans and following up with workstream owners
Ability to identify and manage risks, issues and dependencies before they affect key milestones
Experience coordinating across Finance, Actuarial, IT, business teams and external vendors
Strong Excel and PowerPoint skills, with experience using Teams, SharePoint, Planner, Azure Boards or similar project tools
Strong communication, organisation and stakeholder-management skills
High attention to detail and a governance-focused mindset

The successful candidate will go beyond collecting project updates. You should be able to understand what is affecting delivery, challenge stakeholders constructively and help drive the programme back on track.
