Job description

About the role and the Xomnia culture

In this role, you are the connecting force between business, technology, and delivery. You help organisations translate Data & AI and digital ambitions into clear, well‑executed, and measurable outcomes. You bring structure to complexity, align stakeholders around shared goals, and ensure initiatives move from vision to impact with clarity, continuity, and momentum. You anticipate challenges and combine strategic thinking with hands‑on delivery leadership.

At Xomnia the culture thrives on curiosity, shared ownership, and the courage to challenge assumptions. We value people who enjoy experimenting, sharing knowledge, and working together to create AI solutions that last.

Are you ready to take on this challenge?

If you are strategic, pragmatic, and outcome‑oriented this role is for you. You thrive in environments where priorities evolve, perspectives differ, and clarity needs to be created continuously. You make sure the project is delivered on time and within budget.

You know how to bring people together, build trust across teams, and create momentum. You work collaboratively with sales on proposals and of course with engineers, consultants, and clients to ensure delivery remains aligned, predictable, and impactful.

Your role

As Delivery Lead, you are responsible for the end‑to‑end orchestration and governance of complex client projects:

• Lead the business and delivery side of complex Data & AI and digital transformation initiatives.
• Define and maintain project structures, governance models, ownership, and decision‑making processes to deliver project milestones within time and budget.
• Coordinate multiple workstreams and ensure alignment across teams, phases, and dependencies.
• Safeguard smooth and intentional transitions between delivery phases to maintain continuity and momentum.
• Build trusted relationships with stakeholders at senior and executive level.
• Identify and proactively manage risks, dependencies, and expectation gaps before they affect delivery.
• Collaborate closely with business, sales, and technical teams to ensure continuity throughout the full engagement lifecycle.
• Drive pre‑sales activities by interpreting client challenges and translating them into defined, viable approaches and commercial proposals.
• Contribute to the development of delivery frameworks, best practices, and ways of working that support scalable and sustainable growth.

What you bring to the table

• 7+ years of experience in delivery management, project leadership, or technology‑driven environments.
• Strong experience leading phased delivery programs and maintaining momentum across complex project stages.
• Comfortable operating at the intersection of business, technology, and delivery, with a strong affinity for Data & AI.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with experience navigating complex, multi‑stakeholder environments.
• An ownership mindset focused on outcomes, combined with the ability to bring clarity and structure to ambiguous or fast‑changing situations.
• Professional proficiency in English and full fluency in Dutch are mandatory.

What’s in it for you?

We invest in our people and offer a package that supports your professional development, well‑being, and work‑life balance.

• A monthly salary between €6,200 and €7,800 (based on a 40‑hour work week, excluding holiday allowance).
• €5,000 annual personal development budget.
• 25 vacation days.
• Strong secondary benefits, including pension and flexible working arrangements.
• Hybrid working and the option to take unpaid leave.
• A mobility package tailored to your seniority level.
• Inspiring company trips and team activities.
• Long‑term incentive opportunities (such as SAR participation).
• A culture centered around learning, collaboration, knowledge sharing, and continuous improvement.
