About Us

Hengbao International (HBI) is the Singapore-based global arm of Hengbao Co Ltd (SZSE: ), a publicly listed high-tech leader with over 30 years of smart-card, digital-payment and IoT innovation. Backed by advanced R&D and production hubs in SEA and China, our solutions stem from contactless IC cards and payment terminals to scalable ticketing systems and cybersecurity platforms, power banking, telecom, transport, public services and fintech around the world.

Join our 1,500-strong team to drive high-impact deployments across APAC & EMEA, and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of secure, connected ecosystems.

The Role

You're the project glue, the person who keeps plans, people, and progress aligned so work actually ships. You'll sit between product, tech, operations, and sales: run meetings, capture decisions, assign owners and dates, and follow up until actions close. This is not a management-trainee rotation. It's a strategic project/PMO path with real delivery responsibilities. As you grow, you can move into Product , Technical Support/Solutions , or Sales/Go-to-Market .

Choose your starting focus (pick one)

  • Fintech – payment tech, currency tech, RWA, Digital Assets, Blockchain etc.
  • IoT – devices, connectivity, field deployments, SIM/eSIM etc.

What you'll do

  • Run high-level meetings : set agendas, keep time, capture decisions, actions, owners, and dates; send clear minutes soon after.
  • Own follow-through : track actions, surface blockers early, and coordinate across teams so nothing falls through the cracks.
  • Keep the project house in order : create/maintain project charters , RAID logs, timelines, change requests, and weekly status updates.
  • Support delivery : coordinate sprints/ceremonies, prep stakeholder readouts, and keep dashboards/docs current and accurate.
  • Enable the org : after ramp-up, lead short internal trainings on how we plan, track, and communicate projects.
  • Be the source of truth : know the in-and-outs of your projects so information isn't lost after meetings.

What growth looks like (first year)

  • Ramp-up : you independently run meetings, publish crisp minutes, and maintain reliable trackers.
  • Ownership : you manage 1–2 workstreams end-to-end with steady stakeholder confidence.
  • Enablement : you lead a short internal training and help improve one process/template that the team adopts.
  • Certification : company-sponsored PMP/PgMP learning (after probation & approval).

You'll thrive here if you…

  • Like tech and can explain complex things simply.
  • Write clearly, think in structure, and care about details.
  • Are persistent (polite, but you always close the loop).
  • Enjoy organising docs, plans, templates, and keeping them tidy.
  • Are curious and action-oriented: you ask "why?" then make a plan.

Must-haves

  • Degree in IT/CS/Engineering/IS (or strong technical exposure). MBA is a plus, not a must.
  • Excellent command of English for executive-level communication, minute-taking, and stakeholder updates.
  • Comfortable with Google Sheets/Excel (filters, lookups) and Slides/PowerPoint.
  • Willing and able to travel regionally (SEA & MEA) for projects.
  • Right to work in Singapore.
