Future; Bath; Hybrid; GBP 50,000 - 60,000; Full time

Job description

We are looking for an Agile Delivery Manager to join our Technical Delivery team, where you’ll play a key role in delivering our next-generation of platform capabilities. You’ll sit at the intersection of Product, Engineering, and Brand—driving clarity, alignment, and execution across teams.

You'll be instrumental in driving some of our strategic growth initiatives, focused on supporting dedicated teams in the development of innovative digital products and experiences across our portfolio of high-profile web properties. If you're passionate about Agile methodologies and delivering impactful projects in a media publishing environment, we encourage you to apply.

Reporting to the Tech Delivery Director, you will lead Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, daily stand-ups, reviews, and retrospectives. You will manage project scope and timelines, defining requirements, creating detailed roadmaps, and tracking progress against important milestones. Working with teams—developers, designers, product owners, and stakeholders—you'll ensure seamless collaboration and agreement throughout the project lifecycle.

You will identify and mitigate risks, ensuring projects are delivered on time and to a high standard. You’ll foster a culture of continuous improvement, encouraging collaboration, knowledge sharing, and process optimization to lead team performance. Stakeholder communication is important, as you’ll provide regular updates on status, risks, and dependencies. Additionally, you’ll help establish and refine agile delivery governance, contributing to the development of best practices and frameworks that enhance delivery efficiency and consistency across the organization.

Experience that will put you ahead of the curve

• Experience as an Agile Delivery Manager within a tech-oriented organisation.
• Experience leading cross-functional teams delivering digital products or platforms—preferably in a high-traffic B2C.
• Expertise in Agile project management methodologies (e.g., SCRUM, Lean, Kanban), and the flexibility to adapt them to team needs.
• Proficient in using collaboration and project management tools, with hands-on experience with the Atlassian/Jira suite to lead delivery and transparency across teams.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with experience interfacing directly with senior Product and Engineering leadership.
• Cognizance of the Product Development lifecycle, and understanding of how Product & Delivery functions intertwine for success.

What's in it for you

The expected range for this role is £50,000 - £60,000.

This is a Hybrid role from either our London Paddington or Bath office, working three days from the office, two from home.

… Plus more great perks, which include:

• Uncapped leave, because we trust you to manage your workload and time.
