Job description

Lead Delivery for a Global, AI-First Analytics Platform Used by ~300 of the Fortune 500

Technical Delivery Programme Manager | 12-Month Contract | Dublin (Hybrid)

The opportunity

This is a career-defining opportunity to own delivery of a high-visibility, enterprise-scale analytics platform inside a global, industry-leading professional services organisation. The platform puts data and actionable risk insight in front of around 300 of the Fortune 500, so every release matters.

You’ll step into the technical point-of-contact seat for a global, multidisciplinary, AI-enabled engineering team. You’ll turn ambitious business goals into clear, buildable plans, steer the team through to delivery, and learn the platform’s architecture well enough to take charge of high-level technical change, so your engineers can stay focused on building. If you’re an engineer who has moved into delivery and wants real scale, real autonomy and genuine influence, this is the one.

Why You’ll Love This Job

• Stability with a global name. A 12-month contract with an industry-leading organisation, in a hybrid Dublin setup.
• Impact you can point to. Your delivery directly supports around 300 of the world’s biggest companies as they understand and manage risk. This is work with a visible, measurable outcome.
• Autonomy from day one. You’ll work with limited supervision and be trusted to take charge of technical change, not sit on the sidelines of it.
• A seat between the business and the engineers. You’ll influence how requirements are shaped and how the team builds, and you’ll see your decisions land in production.
• An AI-first team. Join a team that actively uses AI to build and deliver. You’ll sharpen skills that are in demand across the market, and help set the standard.
• A high‑calibre environment. Collaborate with strong technical peers and experienced leadership who will challenge you and back you.
• A contractor-friendly culture. You’ll be treated as part of the team from the start.
