Role: APAC Regional Project Manager, Merger Integration

Location Sydney, Australia

Work Mode: Remote

Full Time

Description:

The Regional Project Manager will support a large-scale merger integration, focused on business and process integration across global regions. This role is responsible for driving execution within the APAC region, ensuring alignment to global integration milestones and maintaining rigorous control over deliverables, risks, and dependencies.

The role is considered remote but there could be key project milestones or events that require the consultant to visit the client office in Sydney. Any travel related costs for someone outside Sydney would be reimbursed.

This is a hands-on execution role. The candidate is expected to actively drive progress, follow up with stakeholders, and ensure regional commitments are delivered — not just report status.

In addition, the role will support local execution of change management activities, partnering with the central change team to ensure adoption and readiness at the regional level.

- Governance & Reporting:



Provide accurate status updates; support governance forums; escalate risks and issues as needed
- Stakeholder Management: Drive accountability across regional stakeholders through structured follow-ups and action tracking
- Change Execution Support: Execute regional change activities (e.g., communications, training coordination, readiness tracking) in alignment with the central change team

Required Qualifications

- 10+ years of project management experience in large-scale transformation or integration programs
- Proven ability to drive execution across multiple stakeholders and geographies
- Solid experience managing detailed plans, milestones, and dependencies
- Hands-on experience managing RAID and driving issue resolution
- Experience working across global, cross-functional teams
- Ability to support execution of change activities in coordination with a central team
- Proficiency in tools such as Smartsheet, MS Project, Jira, or Azure DevOps
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
