Our client, that operates within the public sector domain is hiring a hands on Senior Agile Delivery Manager who has experience working with large cloud software engineering teams (Azure or AWS) within a DevOps (Terraform) environment.
This is a CRM, migration project. Non-engineering delivery is not preferred.
You can be based in Newcastle, Leeds or Birmingham for this project on a hybrid basis. Ideally the chosen candidate will have BPSS clearance.

Run sprint ceremonies (planning, stand-ups, reviews, retrospectives)
Remove blockers and manage delivery flow, scope, and priorities
Work closely with engineers, testers, DevOps, and architects
Drive delivery across technically complex areas (security, resilience, recoverability)
Engage and influence senior stakeholders with clear delivery reporting
Manage risks, dependencies, and backlog refinement
Use Jira to track, manage, and report delivery at team and programme level
Core responsibilities:
Proven hands-on agile delivery within software engineering teams
Experience operating as a Scrum Master / Delivery Manager in active build environments

Advanced Jira capability (team + programme level)
Demonstrable SFIA Level 6 capability
One stage interview, MS teams to start ASAP.
