Developing the industry strategies for the professional services sector, with specific focus on uncovering opportunities in the more niche and/or high-growth areas within the legal, accounting, and financial services sub-sectors (e.g., sustainability, Web 3.0, Mergers & Acquisitions (“M&A”), etc).
Supporting efforts to position Singapore as the leading international legal services hub. As an industry-facing team, PSPO regularly engages and works with law firms and other industry stakeholders to support their growth within the local and regional ecosystem, and also co-shapes policies to help sharpen Singapore’s competitiveness as the legal services hub.

Industry engagement & strategy development:

Depending on the growth area, your work may involve: consulting with various internal and external stakeholders to elicit feedback and suggestions, conducting gap and data analysis, and using that to inform government interventions that may be required to address the gaps.
Securing mindshare through presentations:
You may be required to present your research, analysis, and recommendations at various governmental platforms to secure mindshare from senior management, and/or at external platforms where necessary. You may also be required to work with the relevant government agencies to translate such strategy into downstream initiatives and action. In addition, there will be opportunities to partner and co-develop industry-level solutions with industry and/or other government agency stakeholders to address transformation and capability development needs of the professional services sectors.
Support for events and meetings:
You will have the opportunity to support specific events attended by senior management or political office holders that are relevant to PSPO’s work.
