Be a Part Of Something Big

The Director, Strategic Insights and Performance Management leads a department within the Group Chief Corporate Office responsible for enterprise insight, performance management, and analytics capability across the six functions of the office: Procurement, Legal, Risk & Compliance, Property, Global Business Services, and Corporate Centre Transformation.

Reporting to the Head, Corporate Centre Transformation, the department delivers strategic insight, performance synthesis, enterprise reporting standards, and analytics capability to the Group Chief Corporate Officer (GCCO), the six function heads, and the wider Group. It operates as a lean, leverage-oriented function—a small team of senior managers delivering enterprise capability that would otherwise require multiples in headcount.

The department leads two integrated capabilities: (a) enterprise performance management across the Group Chief Corporate Office portfolio—including the office’s contribution to annual and mid-term planning, KPI governance, and performance reporting; and (b) strategic insight and decision support across the six functions. Through the team, the department also directs the modernization of enterprise analytics—leveraging Databricks, enterprise BI, and AI-enabled tooling to shift management visibility from fragmented reporting into a forward-looking, insight-led operating model.

The role shapes—not simply reports on—the strategic priorities of the Group Chief Corporate Office and drives Group functions and OpCos to adopt common performance management discipline, KPI governance, and decision-grade reporting standards. It supports decision-making at the Corporate Management Committee, Group Management Committee, and Singtel Board Committees, with fiduciary discretion appropriate to the sensitivity of the material involved.

Success is measured by the quality and timeliness of enterprise decisions across the Group Chief Corporate Office, the realised modernization of enterprise analytics, and the enterprise-wide adoption of a trusted single source of truth.

• Champion forward-looking, predictive insight over retrospective reporting.
