    Our Leaders

    See Wai Hun

    CEO and Visionary

    Holding a degree in Business Computing from University of Winnipeg with Gold Medal honours, Wai Hun started her career in Ernst & Young (EY) in consulting and implementation of enterprise systems.

In crisis there is opportunity holds true for Wai Hun as she secured her first deal with a large multi-national bank to provide a crucial recovery solution for the Bank.

    With passion for product innovation and zeal for culture building, Wai Hun is constantly scaling new heights for JurisTech. Drawing strength from her Christian faith, Wai Hun is a pillar of positive energy and commitment for Jurisians. “When Wai Hun is in the room, you can feel the energy and vibrancy that bubbles up from her!” – this remark was made years ago by a programmer and echoed by all Jurisians who have ever worked with her.
