Technology Portfolio Operations (Middle Level)

About the Role

InnovestX is looking for a Technology Portfolio Operations Lead to strengthen the operating cadence of the Technology BU. This role helps ensure that initiatives, budgets, KPIs, risks, decisions, and governance commitments are visible, structured, and followed through with discipline. You will be part of the Technology Security and Governance team and work closely with the CTO and senior technology leaders across the Technology BU. This is an individual contributor role built for someone who thinks structurally, communicates concisely, follows through with discipline, and uses AI as a practical force multiplier.

Responsibilities

• Portfolio and Budget Operations: Track and maintain the Technology BU initiative portfolio; coordinate procurement workflows and ensure timely visibility of purchase requests, contract status, approval bottlenecks, and budget impact; monitor budget consumption, vendor contracts, and CAPEX and OPEX commitments; prepare portfolio and budget dashboards for CTO review; flag risks, overruns, and dependencies before they become problems.
• Performance Tracking: Run BU-level performance cadence — track KPIs and OKRs against targets, surface trends, maintain BU performance dashboards as the integrated decision-ready view, and synthesize performance signals into decision-ready insights for the CTO and senior technology leaders.
• Execution and Coordination: Facilitate and maintain visibility of follow-through on Technology BU strategic initiatives; support coordination of cross-BU initiatives with Business, Product, Risk, Compliance, and Finance teams; track action items, decisions, and outcomes, surface blockers and escalate as required.
• Structural Thinking and Planning: Break down complex problems into MECE structures for executive decision-making; prepare briefing materials, talking points, and decision memos; synthesise inputs from senior technology leaders into clear, decision-ready outputs for CTO and senior leadership review.
• Technology Governance Support: Use AI tools to accelerate preparation of governance documentation, policy drafts, audit preparation materials, and compliance-related inputs; track remediation timelines and governance action items across the Technology BU without duplicating first line responsibilities; identify opportunities to automate or streamline recurring governance workflows using AI agents and tools.
• AI-Powered Execution: Design and deploy practical AI-enabled workflows, reusable prompts, skills, or lightweight agents that reduce recurring manual effort and continuously raise how the Technology BU operates with AI.

Qualifications

• Required: Track record of driving cross-functional initiatives to completion without direct authority; demonstrable structural thinking — Pyramid Principle, MECE, executive-grade communication; working knowledge of how technology organizations operate, including software delivery, cloud, and infrastructure basics; proven AI fluency — experience building practical AI workflows, reusable prompts, skills, or lightweight agents that others can actually use; good command of English.
• Preferred: Experience in financial services, securities trading, or fintech; familiarity with portfolio and budget tracking at scale; background in programmed management, technology operations, or management consulting.
