    "What You'll Be Doing"

    What You'll Be Doing

    Manage end-to-end delivery for three development teams, covering planning, execution, releases and post-release follow-up, ensuring clear priorities, timelines and ownership.

    Lead approved strategic initiatives that span multiple teams, from scoping and planning through development, rollout and closure, keeping stakeholders aligned and managing dependencies so work doesn't stall between teams.

    Maintain a rolling delivery roadmap in Jira and Plans, planning team capacity, tracking commitments, and keeping timelines realistic.

    Keep delivery progress visible through RAG statuses, brief weekly updates, and regular syncs with direction leads, the CTO, and Product.

    Identify risks, blockers and dependencies early, resolving what's possible within the teams and escalating the rest with proposed solutions.

    Partner with the Program Manager to build and refine delivery processes, including Definition of Ready, Definition of Done, Jira workflows, planning routines, and retrospectives.

    Track delivery metrics such as lead time, cycle time, throughput and predictability to identify bottlenecks and areas for improvement.

    Maintain Jira as the single source of truth for delivery and Confluence for documentation and decisions, helping standardize Jira project structures and keep information current.

    Work closely with senior management, keeping them informed on progress, risks, trade-offs and decisions requiring their input.

    What We're Looking For

    5+ years of experience in Project / Delivery Management in IT product companies.

    Proven experience managing multiple development teams simultaneously and leading complex cross-team initiatives involving multiple teams, departments and stakeholders.

    Strong understanding of SDLC, PDLC, Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban), and end-to-end product development and delivery processes.

    Proven ability to manage end-to-end delivery, from requirements gathering and planning to release and post-release activities.

    Strong skills in project planning, prioritization, resource allocation, capacity planning and dependency management.

    Ability to proactively identify and resolve risks, blockers and delivery bottlenecks.

    Experience establishing and improving delivery processes, ensuring transparency and predictability.

    Strong understanding of delivery metrics (agile metrics, lead time, cycle time, throughput, delivery predictability).

    Excellent stakeholder management skills, including communication with senior management.

    Ability to work autonomously, make decisions, challenge priorities, and drive initiatives to completion.

    Advanced proficiency with Atlassian products (Jira, Confluence) and experience using Plans or BigPicture for project planning, resource management and cross-team coordination.

    English proficiency at B2 level.
