Senior Manager - Global Transition Services

What this job involves:

Providing a roadmap for success

Working with a team, you'll set the vision for every project and enforce a process that helps everyone get to the finish line. This entails exploring stakeholders' needs through due diligence meetings with relevant parties (clients, consultants, contractors, agencies), as well as doing the necessary follow-through research and analysis. Afterward, you'll get down to the project's nitty gritty--such as the corresponding roadmap, cost, schedule, success criteria's and financial benefits . And then you'll proceed to creating the execution plan that ensures delivery of outputs to the stakeholders' expectations and meets our own commercial objectives.



While formulating strategies that will lead to the project's success, you'll also closely manage the team and keep track of the project's progress--from diagnosis, solution design development, implementation, knowledge transfer, ramp-up , PGLS and handover to BAU. Likewise, you'll be expected to light the way during monitoring & control phases, and review all pending issues with the project team. You'll need to collaborate effectively with a range of stakeholders, leading from the front while also taking the time to understand their point of view.



Of course, as you represent our clients' best interests, you'll also keep in mind JLL's own business needs--and, thereby, strive to achieve an ideal balance between the two.



Manning people and operations

You'll lead by example by showing your team that you're a confident and proactive leader. You'll need to establish a dynamic environment that promotes the sharing of ideas and employee growth, upholds the firm's values and culture, and aligns with our purpose of shaping the future of real estate for a better world.



Core to our reputation is our strong focus on predictable outcome and on sustainability of solutions implemented, and you'll be expected to keep these front-of-mind at all times.



On a weekly basis, you'll sit down with clients, consultants, contractors and agencies to review the progress of a project. You'll also review project status reports during each operational phase, and hold a project control group meeting. Creating project monthly and weekly status reports as well as project risk register and HS reports is also on you. In the case of exceptions and remediation's, you'll need to report them, as necessary. As needed, you--together with the business development manager and other resources --will also prepare proposals, case studies, presentations and lessons learned.
