We're looking for an experienced Senior Delivery Manager to join our growing team and help lead the delivery of enterprise data, transformation, and visualisation products and services.
In this pivotal role, you'll work within a product-focused, cross-functional team delivering application and enterprise-level data capabilities, including data warehousing, transformation, reporting, and insight solutions.

Facilitate effective delivery through strong planning, dependency management, risk management, and stakeholder engagement.
Help teams optimise flow, improve predictability, and continuously improve ways of working.
Own and support release and delivery management processes, ensuring robust governance and successful product launches.
Collaborate closely with Product Owners and Technical leads to support prioritisation, road-mapping, budgeting, and strategic planning.
