Job description

Role Summary

Paralucent is seeking a Senior Delivery Manager to lead a multi-workstream enterprise modernization program in financial services. You will turn an established future-state vision into an executable roadmap, coordinate business and technology teams, manage dependencies and controls, and guide incremental releases through testing, approval, deployment and stabilization.

This role is for a hands-on leader who creates clarity, raises risks early and keeps teams focused on measurable outcomes.

What You’ll Do

• Own the integrated delivery plan across business process, user experience, workflow/case management, integrations, AI/document intelligence, security, testing and release workstreams.

• Translate program outcomes into increments, milestones, release plans, dependencies, decision points and acceptance evidence.

• Operate within an Agile or hybrid enterprise delivery model, including backlog readiness, sprint/release planning, demonstrations, retrospectives and production governance.

• Maintain disciplined RAID, decision, change, action and dependency management; surface material issues early with options and recommendations.

• Coordinate architecture, cybersecurity, privacy, records management, Responsible AI, operations and production-readiness reviews.

• Manage client and Paralucent governance, status reporting, financial tracking, forecasting, resource planning and milestone acceptance.

• Ensure requirements-to-test-to-evidence traceability and that no prototype is represented as production-ready.

• Plan cutover, pilot, hypercare, transition-to-support and progressive knowledge transfer.

• Create a high-accountability team environment with clear owners, due dates and escalation paths.

What Success Looks Like

• A credible integrated plan, governance cadence and decision model are operating early.

• Milestones are achieved with transparent scope, budget, quality and risk reporting.

• Dependencies on enterprise teams and legacy-system owners are identified before they block delivery.

• Working end-to-end increments reach pilot and production with complete approval and test evidence.

• Operational teams are prepared to adopt, support and improve the solution after launch.

• 8+ years leading enterprise software, digital transformation or workflow/case-management delivery, including several years in senior delivery or program leadership.

• Demonstrated success delivering complex solutions into production in banking, financial services or another highly regulated industry.

• Strong command of Agile delivery, release planning, dependency management, change control, financial management and executive reporting.

• Experience coordinating architecture, security, privacy, records, compliance, operations and technology stakeholders.

• Ability to manage multiple vendors, distributed teams and cross-functional workstreams without losing end-to-end accountability.

• Strong written and verbal communication, including concise executive reporting and difficult escalation conversations.

• Practical understanding of cloud applications, enterprise integration, workflow, AI governance and production-readiness controls.

Preferred Experience

• Experience with Canadian banking environments and enterprise risk/governance processes.

• Experience delivering high-volume operational workflow, document-processing or regulated case-management solutions.

• PMP, PMI-ACP, Scrum, SAFe or comparable delivery certification.

• Experience using EOS-style scorecards, clear seat accountability and issue-solving disciplines.

Role Scorecard: Illustrative Measures

Final targets and cadence will be confirmed for the specific assignment. Typical measures include:

• Milestone predictability and release readiness

• Budget and capacity variance

• Age and closure rate of critical RAID items

• Decision and dependency turnaround

• Defect escape and production-stability trends

• Stakeholder confidence and acceptance timeliness

• Knowledge-transfer and operational-readiness completion
