Digital Delivery Lead

Job Description

What You’ll Do as Digital Delivery Lead

In your role, you’ll collaborate with different people across a range of skillsets. Here’s a flavour of your day-to-day:

• Lead end-to-end delivery orchestration for a defined Technology or Business platform / Product sub-domain (e.g. POS, Integration, Connectivity, Digital Transact), owning and maintaining a single, transparent delivery plan with clearly identified dependencies across multiple teams.
• Coordinate cross-team execution and dependencies, ensuring full visibility of work, proactively managing internal and external dependencies, and facilitating prioritisation and sequencing to deliver changes in a structured, aligned manner.
• Drive governance, reporting and delivery performance, including running platform/product governance forums, ensuring accurate and timely reporting, and actively resolving delivery impediments and blockers through ‘team of teams’ collaboration.
• Enable effective stakeholder alignment and delivery feasibility, working closely with Product, Technology, and Business stakeholders (Heads of, Managers, Product Owners, Architects) to support transparent discussions on delivery timelines, risks, and outcomes.
• Manage delivery resources and financials, including ownership of the resource profile (internal and external) and day-to-day operational management of the platform/product change budget (typically £2m–£6m) in partnership with the Tech Portfolio team.
• Ensure risk, audit, and control compliance, by engaging with Governance, Risk & Controls teams to proactively identify, plan, and integrate risk and audit activities into the delivery roadmap, within a complex, multi-team environment without direct line management responsibility.
