PMO – Murex Transformation Program (Geneva) in Genf

Fenixys is a Murex Official Partner Company specialising in Advisory, Project Delivery and Managed Services.

Context

Fenixys are assisting with a long-term re-platforming initiative to migrate Trading and Treasury activities to MX.3 in phased rollouts covering Front Office, Middle Office, Back Office, Risk, and part of Finance. We are seeking a seasoned Murex Technical Lead to drive technical design, interface strategy, and hands-on development throughout the program. The role is based in Geneva within a small, dynamic team and will collaborate closely with the vendor to ensure a robust, scalable implementation.

The role

We are looking for an experienced PMO to steer the governance, planning and reporting of a large Murex MX.3 transformation program for a financial institution in Geneva.

The program covers the upgrade and re-platforming of Murex across front office, risk, and middle office, with interfaces to back-office, accounting, market data and regulatory reporting systems. As PMO, you are the backbone of the program: you keep the plan honest, the risks visible and the steering committee well informed.

You will work hand in hand with the Program Director, workstream leads (business, Murex functional and technical, integration, testing, infrastructure) and the client's business sponsors.

Key responsibilities

Governance and reporting

• Run the program governance cadence: weekly workstream reviews, monthly steering committees, and ad hoc decision forums.
• Produce clear, concise dashboards and SteerCo packs on progress, milestones, budget, risks and decisions.
• Maintain the decision log and action tracker, and follow actions through to closure.

Planning and dependencies

• Build and maintain the integrated program plan across all workstreams (MX.3 configuration, interfaces, data migration, testing, cutover, decommissioning).
• Track the critical path and cross-workstream dependencies, including vendor (Murex) and infrastructure deliveries.
• Support release, testing (SIT, UAT, non-regression, parallel run) and go-live readiness planning.

Risk, issue and change control

• Own the RAID log; challenge workstream leads on mitigations, owners and due dates.
• Run the change request process and assess impact on scope, budget and timeline.

Financial and resource management

• Track program budget, actuals and forecasts, including internal staff, consultants and vendor costs.
• Manage resource planning, onboarding and timesheets across a team of internal staff and external partners.

PMO tooling and methodology

• Set up and run PMO standards, templates and tooling (e.g. Jira, Confluence, MS Project, Power BI).
• Prepare evidence and documentation for internal audit, risk and compliance reviews.

Your profile

• 7+ years of PMO or project management experience in banking or capital markets.
• At least one end-to-end Murex program (implementation, MX.3 upgrade or migration) in a PMO or project role.
• Proven experience running SteerCo reporting, RAID management and integrated planning on programs of 30+ people.
• Strong command of MS Project (or equivalent), Excel, PowerPoint and Jira/Confluence.
• Fluent English; professional French.
• Eligible to work in Switzerland (Swiss or EU/EFTA citizen, or holder of a valid permit).

Nice to have

• Solid understanding of the trade lifecycle across front, middle and back office, and of Murex modules and interfaces at a functional level.
• Experience with Swiss private or investment banks and the FINMA regulatory environment.
• PMP, PRINCE2, MSP or SAFe certification.
• Power BI or similar reporting tools.
• Structured and rigorous, with a sharp eye for inconsistencies in plans and figures.
• Confident with senior stakeholders; able to challenge workstream leads constructively.
• Clear communicator who can turn complexity into a one-page view for decision-makers.
