Chief Technology Officer — Global Organisation
Location: Singapore
Our client is a rapidly scaling global organisation with significant operations across Singapore, Australia and wider APAC, including Japan, Korea and Hong Kong.
Following a period of rapid growth and acquisition, the organisation is consolidating into a more integrated, modern operating platform. Technology will be fundamental to the next stage of that journey.
Strong foundations are already in place across cybersecurity, enterprise collaboration and early AI adoption. The opportunity now is to move technology beyond a predominantly operational function and establish the strategy, capability, governance and leadership required for the next phase of growth.
This is very much a build-and-lead mandate rather than a caretaker CTO role. It could suit an accomplished technology executive ready to step into their first CTO position, or an existing CTO/CIO attracted by the opportunity to build capability and create visible impact.
The Mandate
- Technology strategy & leadership — define the enterprise technology strategy and operating model, representing technology at executive and board level.
- Transformation & modernisation — lead the evolution of ERP, CRM, data, AI and cloud capabilities across a historically federated environment.
- Operating model & governance — establish stronger demand management, prioritisation, architecture, investment and technology risk disciplines.
- Data & AI — define the enterprise data and AI roadmap, strengthen the underlying data platform and move early AI adoption into scalable business capability.
- Cybersecurity & risk — build on a strong existing security posture across multiple jurisdictions, including emerging AI governance requirements.
- People & change leadership — lead and develop an established technology team while taking business stakeholders and regional leadership on the transformation journey.
- Executive stakeholder management — influence senior leaders across multiple countries and manage strategic vendor, shareholder and board relationships.
What You'll Inherit An established technology environment spanning
Microsoft 365, core finance/ERP, HR platforms and an emerging enterprise data and reporting capability, together with an Enterprise Architecture capability being established to support the transformation.
The environment is stable — this isn't a turnaround of a broken technology function. The challenge is to
build maturity, capability and strategic direction from a relatively low base while continuing to support a rapidly growing business.
What We're Looking For - Senior technology leadership experience within a complex, multi-country organisation.
- Demonstrated delivery of significant enterprise technology transformation, rather than strategy alone.
- Strong understanding of data, AI and emerging technology, with evidence of translating these into practical business outcomes.
- Exceptional people leadership, communication and change management capability.
- Ability to influence across different countries, cultures and business units.
- Commercially minded, pragmatic and comfortable remaining hands-on when required.
- Credibility operating with CEOs, executive teams, boards and international shareholders.
- Experience within real estate, property, logistics or similarly complex multi-region environments would be advantageous, but isn't essential.
- Exposure to property or real-estate management technology platforms would also be beneficial.
Why Join? This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of technology at an important point in the organisation's evolution.
You'll have a
genuine mandate to build, rather than simply execute an inherited technology roadmap, with significant scope to shape the operating model, data and AI capability, architecture and future technology strategy.
The role offers substantial executive visibility and influence across a growing international organisation.
Remuneration is flexible and will be structured around the calibre and experience of the successful candidate.
