You will be part of a dynamic team that spearheads market development initiatives to grow Singapore as a leading global centre for digital payments and to build the financial ecosystem of the future.

You will formulate policies and strategies to architect the desired future state of Singapore's payment infrastructure and build a vibrant payments ecosystem that meets market participants' demands in the future state of payments (e.g. data-rich payment services, high-volume atomic settlement of transactions via tokenisation, smart contract/AI-based transactions, interoperability between traditional rails and digital asset rails). Your work will include:

  • Developing and refining policies and frameworks for better governance and risk management of our cross-border linkages.
  • Undertake holistic cross-sectoral reviews to identify where incremental value-add can be unlocked in the cross-border payments landscape, and design interventions to unlock these.
  • Crafting medium to longer-term strategies for the next phase of MAS' payments roadmap – crystallising our vision for Singapore's position as a payments and digital asset hub.

Requirements :

  • Good strategic thinking, with realistic views. Grounded in current facts, while able to see possibilities.
  • Strong analytical competence with the capacity to synthesise value from diverse, rapidly-changing sources.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and able to positively influence internal and external stakeholders.
  • Strong understanding of trends and developments in the global payments landscape.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills.
  • A good team player who is proactive and motivated, with keen interest in growing Singapore as a financial centre.
  • Background in technology will be an advantage.
