Lead Delivery Manager

Job description

**About the Role** As a Lead Delivery Manager, you'll be accountable for the successful delivery of complex digital projects. This could mean leading a small, intricate delivery with a focus on consultancy, a large programme with multiple delivery teams, or several smaller engagements. You may be the most senior line of project escalation or you might work with a delivery principal as part of a wider programme. You'll personify servant leadership, promoting a collaborative approach to ensure projects deliver the desired outcomes for users and customers. You'll work together with the team and stakeholders to identify and manage risks and issues. While you're an expert in agile delivery, you're also pragmatic, able to define a delivery approach and team shape that's appropriate for each specific situation, especially when working with public sector clients. You'll build trust with senior stakeholders, coaching clients throughout the delivery process and using your influence to continuously iterate and improve team processes. You'll also support Product Managers in defining and delivering against a roadmap, helping to monitor project progress and facilitate discussions about backlog priority, scope, and budget. Beyond your project work, you'll be a leader within Made Tech. This includes contributing to the Delivery Community of Practice, managing the performance and development of other delivery managers, and supporting recruitment efforts. You'll also play a key role in growing Made Tech's impact by expanding your professional network, contributing to thought leadership, and identifying new business opportunities.
