Role Summary
We’re seeking an exceptional Delivery Manager who combines the strategic vision of a Product Manager, the empathy of a User-Centred Design leader, and the delivery discipline of an experienced Agile practitioner in the UK public sector.
You’ll be at the heart of multidisciplinary teams, delivering complex, public-facing digital services. You will balance policy requirements, user needs, technical constraints, and GDS service standards while driving iterative delivery at pace.
Key Responsibilities
Agile Delivery Leadership
Lead delivery through all phases – Discovery, Alpha, Beta, and Live.
Facilitate agile ceremonies (stand-ups, planning, retrospectives, reviews) to focus on value delivery and team wellbeing.
Drive iterative delivery with quick feedback loops and lean problem-solving.
User-Centred & Product Thinking
Act as the bridge between UCD, product, and technical teams to ensure the user voice drives design.
Align delivery outcomes with product roadmaps, policy objectives, and GOV.UK service standards.
Stakeholder Engagement
Build trust with senior stakeholders across policy, operations, and technology.
Communicate complex technical and delivery topics in clear, outcome-focused language.
Proactively manage expectations and unblock decision-making.
Delivery Governance & Reporting
Oversee governance, reporting, and risk management for multiple teams or work streams.
Prepare for GDS service assessments, spend approvals, and assurance boards.
Collaborate with finance and commercial teams to align contracts and procurement.
UCD/Product Background – experience as a product manager, user researcher, or service designer before moving into delivery.
Agile at Scale – experience leading large, multi-team programs using Scrum, Kanban, or scaled agile frameworks.
Coaching & Mentoring – proven ability to support junior DMs and foster high-performance teams.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
Resilience in politically complex environments.
Leading teams through GDS phases from Discovery to Live.
Familiarity with tools such as Jira, Trello, Miro, Mural, and Confluence.
Experience with cross-government platforms (e.g., One Login, Notify, Pay).
Involvement in GDS service assessment preparation.
Why Join Us
Work on high-impact, public-facing services that improve lives.
