Job Description
SS&C Asset Services APAC – Software Delivery Manager ( HiTrust )
Get To Know Us:
Company Overview
SS&C is a global provider of investment and financial services and software for the financial services and healthcare industries, and employs more than 27,000 people in offices in 35 countries across the globe.
SS&C GIDS Asset Services APAC is predominantly located in Melbourne, Sydney, Thailand and India. We are the largest provider of Transfer Agency services in the region, providing an Investor, Advisor, Fund Manager and Custodian end-to-end service offering. Our HiTrust platform is delivered to installed-software customers, SaaS clients, and our internal business process outsourcing (BPO) operations.
Reports to: Senior Delivery Manager – Asset Services
Location: RSU Tower, Bangkok, Thailand
What is the opportunity?
We are looking for an experienced Software Delivery Manager to join our team within the HiTrust business of SS&C, responsible for our investment management and fund administration front ends, used primarily by investors and financial advisers.
This is a key role in enabling the successful execution of our strategy to become an industry-leading Fund Administration service in Thailand.
You will join a friendly and collaborative team that values mutual respect, continuous learning and a supportive, well-balanced working environment.
As Software Delivery Manager, you are accountable for the end-to-end delivery of the HiTrust product to our installed-software customers, SaaS clients and internal BPO operations. You will own delivery commitments – scope, timelines and quality – across your team, holding the client-facing and business conversations that go with them, including the difficult ones when priorities compete, or something is at risk. This is a non-technical role: you lead delivery through strong management and coordination rather than hands-on engineering, and you lead your delivery team without direct line-management responsibility, working through trust, clear communication and a collaborative approach.
Agile delivery is at the heart of the role. You will facilitate the team's Scrum process end to end and own the Jira delivery workflow, while also carrying the wider delivery-management responsibilities that come with a regulated financial services environment – delivery and capacity planning, release governance, effort reporting, risk management, and regular progress reporting to project managers and senior stakeholders.
AI is central to how we work. You will bring AI tooling into your day-to-day delivery management – using it to plan, forecast, report and reduce waste – and you will encourage and support the adoption of AI across the team to help improve productivity, quality and delivery pace.
Who you'll work with
You will work closely with Software Engineers, Business Analysts, QA Engineers, Solution Architects and Product Managers within your team, and with Project Managers, BPO operations, senior business stakeholders and clients across the wider organisation . You will collaborate with your peers and your manager to continuously improve delivery practices, and – as SS&C is a global company – you will regularly work with colleagues across different time zones.
