Program Summary:
MUFG Americas is embarking on a business and technology transformation program to effectively deliver five key business imperatives: compliance, growth, business agility, client experience, and collaboration. The program is structured into four primary pillars, each focused on a critical outcome necessary to meet the transformation objectives: a) core banking transformation; b) data strategy & governance; c) technology modernization; and d) agile transformation.
As we begin implementation of this ambitious initiative, we are creating a Transformation Program Office (TPO) with senior leaders representing the business, technology, and program management to oversee the program. The mandate of the new TPO is to act as the ‘nerve center’ that cuts across our three transformation pillars, ensures coordination of efforts, and enables rapid issue escalation and resolution. To achieve this, the TPO will work closely with the leaders of our transformation pillars, business lines, and corporate functions as they build their teams. The TPO will develop a new operating rhythm, characterized by:
• An agile cadence, with regular meetings, rapid decision-making, and frequent iteration
• A “challenge” mindset that collectively pushes us as a team
• A sense of urgency to drive change quickly (and seek “how to” vs. “why not”)
• Prioritization of efforts that matter
• A focus on execution excellence
Role Summary:
The transformation program office is seeking a transformation roadmap lead to join the technology team within the TPO. The transformation roadmap lead develops and manages the strategic delivery roadmap, working closely with the transformation pillars to turn the plan into reality.
Major Responsibilities:
• Manage the transformation program’s overall delivery roadmap, applying technical insights to de-risk the effort
• Identify the transformation program’s critical path and dependencies, working with the execution pillars to unblock issues and ensure delivery
• Keep key stakeholders informed, making complicated issues understandable for non-technologists
• Orchestrate and lead cross-functional teams to deliver critical outcomes and analysis for the transformation program
Qualifications
• Bachelor’s degree in computer science or related field, or equivalent professional experience
• 8+ years technical program management experience within a high integrity, and/or regulated environment (government, healthcare, financial sectors)
• Track record of delivering complex technical systems
• Experience creating successful strategic implementation plans
• Able to navigate technical architecture and design topics, facilitating resolution
• An instinctual eye for the critical path, and the risks it faces, particularly those technical in nature
• Able to comfortably manage more simultaneous threads than most
• Strong attention to detail
• Interest in adapting to new technologies
• Comfort with ambiguity; the ability to find the correct path given limited guidance
• Ability to create insightful visualizations to convey complicated data and concepts succinctly
• Strong communication & presentation skills
• Experience leading software development, systems, or infrastructure engineering teams
• Completion of PMP or other equivalent PM certification
• Demonstrated innovation, creativity and an entrepreneurial mindset
• Ability to travel, including out of state and internationally
