Job description

Direct message the job poster from Standard Innovation

Standard Innovation helps to solve data challenges and build automation processes that move businesses forward. We believe most businesses don’t need new technology to solve their problems, they simply need clear guidance from experts who know how to use the tools to create value.

We know what works and what doesn't. Our approach is straight to the point. There's no magic here, just practical, applicable advice and expertise.

The opportunity

We’re in search of a Delivery Director to build and lead our Professional Services teams. This role is about making things happen, fast and effectively, to create the most value for our clients and their customers.

You'll be responsible for overseeing the end-to-end delivery of all of our projects, making sure we create significant customer value to a level of quality that we can be proud of.

You’ll cut through complexity, working with individuals and teams across different disciplines and keeping everyone as passionate as you are about making a difference.

This is a hands-on role. You'll be a doer and comfortable getting into the details of delivery, whilst also setting the strategic direction.

What you'll do

• Get stuck in with customer projects to understand how and where we do our best work
• Build long term, trusting relationships with clients
• Hire and motivate an exceptional team with a relentless focus on innovation and creativity
• Build a slick operational model, to create the most value for our clients with maximum efficiency and quality
• Never settle for good enough, working closely with clients and internal teams to find, design and build future opportunities where our services can benefit their business and customers
• Report on the value created for clients with clear quantifiable results and bring them to life with inspiring, factual and direct communication
• Keep up with and understand the marketplace, participating in activities where we can share how we do things to attract new clients and continue to disrupt

What you'll bring

• Relentless problem solving
• Proven ability to deliver value quickly and effectively
• Experience building and leading engaged and creative high-performing teams
• Focus on solving problems and achieving results
• Experience picking up and running with large and complex projects across multiple customers across different technical domains and verticals
• The ability to translate complex themes into straightforward language for different audiences, being candid and honest.
• Experience developing business cases that clearly articulate the value and realistic ROI of any given project
• The way you do anything is the way you do everything. You’ll demand the highest quality from your team and for clients and their customers
• Commitment to the growth of the colleagues and clients you work with

What we offer

• Good pay (salary, bonus based on results, opportunity for meaningful equity)
• A real chance to shape how our company grows
• A fast-moving, high performing team
• The opportunity to make a meaningful difference to our clients
