Senior Technical Delivery Manager (Agile / SaaS / Multi-Squad Ownership)
Permanent | London (2-3 Days Per Week Onsite)
We are partnering with a large global technology organisation delivering cloud-based SaaS and bespoke software solutions to more than 20 million users worldwide.
As part of continued growth across Product and Engineering, they are looking for a Senior Technical Delivery Manager to lead complex engineering delivery across multiple squads within a large-scale, dependency-heavy environment.
Important
This role requires strong technical delivery expertise. While not a hands-on engineering role, you must be technically credible and comfortable working closely with Engineering Managers and Architects across complex software environments.
You should have a solid understanding of APIs, microservices, cloud platforms, CI/CD, technical dependencies, and the delivery challenges associated with large-scale engineering environments.
This role is focused on engineering delivery leadership rather than governance-led project management. Candidates whose experience is primarily centered around PMO coordination, milestone tracking, or governance-only delivery are unlikely to be a fit.
Reporting to the VP of Delivery, you will help drive execution maturity, delivery predictability, and cross-team coordination across product, platform, and operational initiatives.
Key Responsibilities
* Own delivery across 3–4 engineering squads
* Drive clarity around priorities, scope, sequencing, and execution
* Manage delivery across feature work, technical debt, platform initiatives, and operational issues
* Coordinate cross-team and transversal initiatives
* Identify and manage delivery risks, dependencies, and technical constraints
* Work closely with Engineering, Architecture, and Product teams
* Improve delivery predictability, transparency, and execution maturity
* Coach teams toward stronger collaboration, accountability, and delivery practices
What We’re Looking For
* Significant experience within Technical Delivery, Agile Delivery, or Engineering Delivery environments
* Experience managing delivery across multiple engineering squads
* Proven delivery experience within SaaS or bespoke software environments
* Strong understanding of modern software delivery practices and cloud-based systems
* Experience managing complex dependencies and delivery risk
* Ability to balance feature delivery against technical debt and platform stability
* Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
* Agile or Project Management certification (Scrum, SAFe, PRINCE2, PMP or equivalent)
This role will suit a senior delivery professional who combines strong execution leadership with genuine technical understanding and is comfortable operating close to engineering teams in complex software delivery environments.
