We’re looking for an experienced Engagement & Delivery Manager to join a growing technology consultancy. This is a permanent opportunity for someone who enjoys being close to clients and delivery teams while also taking ownership of the commercial health of engagements.
You’ll lead complex technology engagements from initial discovery through to delivery, working closely with clients to understand their needs, shape solutions and turn business goals into clear delivery plans. A key part of the role will be leading the delivery of bespoke/custom software solutions, working with clients, consultants and engineering teams throughout the delivery lifecycle.
The role is hands-on and will see you managing delivery plans, backlogs, milestones, risks and dependencies, using Agile, hybrid or structured delivery depending on the engagement. You’ll lead multidisciplinary teams and may manage several client engagements at the same time.
There is also a strong commercial element, including forecasting, burn tracking, scope, resourcing and engagement performance. You’ll build trusted client relationships and help identify opportunities for further work and longer-term partnerships.
