Head of Strategy and Transformation
Xinni Tian joined Steamships in February 2025 as Group Head of Strategy and Transformation, bringing over 10 years of experience in strategy delivery and organisational transformation, both in the public and private sectors.
Earlier in her career, Xinni was part of the Future Leadership Programme with the Singapore Government, where she held leadership roles in education reform, public service transformation, and strategic change initiatives. Her work was recognised with multiple Public Service Awards for Service Excellence, Innovation, and Outstanding Contributions. She has since worked across a diverse range of industries, including government, finance, startups, and education.

Working with teams across Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America, and Canada, Xinni brings a people-centred approach to her work — drawing on systems and design thinking to help organisations align strategy, improve delivery and lead through change.
In close partnership with the senior leadership team, Xinni will support the formulation and execution of Steamships' strategy and help improve operational efficiencies as we prepare for a period of sustained growth across the business.
