Jobbeschreibung

We're recruiting for two Lead Delivery Managers here at Justice Digital, Data and Science to be part of our warm and collaborative Probation Digital Team, and the Office of the Chief Technology Officer.

This role aligns against Delivery Manager Profession from the Government Digital and Data Framework.

Lead Delivery Managers are accountable for effective delivery of groups of products and are responsible for the recruitment and performance management of delivery managers within their area. They also remain 'hands-on', supporting high-priority product delivery.

Lead Delivery Managers define and implement standards and processes for delivery and are experienced in leading multidisciplinary teams that build, support and continuously improve products of significant scale and complexity.

As a Lead Delivery Manager, you will have a proven ability in successfully delivering large software development projects/programmes. This is a high-impact role where you will be building, maintaining and motivating teams; protecting them and making sure the teams in your area collaborate effectively. You'll coach teams and facilitate a culture of continuous improvement, proactively managing dependencies and risks to overcome obstacles to delivery.

As an Agile delivery leader in our organisation, you will have a proven record of working with senior leaders, stakeholders and third parties to drive agile transformations at an organisational level. You will be part of our digital delivery leadership community driving cultural and procedural change and embedding Agile approaches and ways of working. With a strong background as a Scrum Master or Agile Coach (or similar roles) you will primarily focus on delivery strategy, while supporting the creation of self-organising and high-performing teams, supported closely by Senior Delivery Managers.

You will have the ability and experience of establishing/driving Agile delivery/transformations, through a solid coaching background. As well as demonstrating your leadership qualities in building new teams through hiring of FTEs but also using managed services suppliers.
