Skills & experience required bullet points

  • Significant experience leading complex digital delivery at Senior Delivery Manager level, ideally in a multi-supplier or managed-service environment.

    • Proven ability to mobilise delivery arrangements quickly and establish proportionate governance, reporting, controls and ways of working.

    • Strong supplier management and coordination skills, with experience aligning multiple organisations around shared priorities, outcomes and delivery plans.

    • Demonstrable experience managing cross-team dependencies, risks, issues, blockers, resourcing and delivery spend, with timely escalation where required.

    • Ability to provide clear, concise and evidence-based reporting to senior stakeholders, creating visibility of progress, constraints, decisions and financial position.

    • Strong leadership, facilitation and relationship-building skills, with the ability to create effective collaboration between supplier teams and civil service colleagues.

    • Sound judgement in a fast-paced and ambiguous environment, balancing pace, delivery assurance and proportionate control.

    • Experience of knowledge transfer, capability handover and embedding sustainable delivery practices before exiting a time-limited engagement.

    • A strong understanding of agile and user-centred digital delivery, with the ability to adapt methods to the context rather than apply process mechanically.

    • Experience of working in government or another complex, regulated organisation is desirable.
