Overview
Legend is hiring a Delivery Lead to join our team, supporting some of our most complex and strategically important areas in the Gaming Pillar. You will report into the Senior Delivery Manager for the Gaming Product Portfolio and play a key role in driving clarity, alignment, and execution across multiple fast-moving product networks. This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of high-impact initiatives, influence how we deliver at scale, and shape outcomes in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment. You will lead delivery efforts from planning through to execution, support teams in navigating complexity, and help embed strong delivery practices across multiple squads. Working closely with other Delivery Leads, Product Managers, and cross-functional development teams, you will lead projects, manage dependencies effectively, and help optimise delivery systems across the pillar. You will also contribute to broader agile transformation efforts, helping teams continuously improve how they work.

* Strong delivery and project management skills: Proven experience leading complex projects end to end, with a focus on prioritisation, risk mitigation, and delivering outcomes on time and within scope.
* Agile expertise and continuous improvement mindset: Deep understanding of agile principles and frameworks, with experience applying them pragmatically to optimise delivery processes and foster a culture of continuous learning and adaptation.
* Excellent stakeholder and relationship management: Ability to build and maintain trusted relationships across product, engineering, and business teams; adept at managing expectations, facilitating collaboration, and communicating effectively with diverse stakeholders.
* Proactive risk, issue, and dependency management: Skilled at identifying potential risks and blockers early, developing mitigation strategies, and coordinating resolution efforts across teams.
