About Creation Technology
Creation Technology is a specialist Salesforce consultancy focused on the Higher Education sector. We design, implement and optimise Salesforce Education Cloud solutions that transform student recruitment, admissions, student success, advancement and institutional operations for universities around the world.
As our business continues to grow both in the UK & internationally, we are looking for an exceptional Delivery Lead to manage our delivery organisation and ensure every customer receives an outstanding implementation experience. This is a strategic leadership role responsible for ensuring that every project is delivered successfully, profitably and in line with the commitments made during the sales process.
Role Overview
The Delivery Lead is accountable for the successful delivery of Creation's global Salesforce Education Cloud implementation projects. The role provides high level oversight across the entire project lifecycle, from supporting Sales with Scope of Works and project estimation, through project mobilisation and delivery, to successful customer adoption and project closure.
Working closely with Sales, Project Managers, Delivery Consultants and Senior Leadership, the Delivery Lead ensures that projects remain aligned with contractual scope, commercial expectations, timelines and quality standards. Where projects diverge from the agreed Scope of Works, the Delivery Lead proactively identifies the impact, works with customers and project teams to define appropriate Change Requests, and manages the commercial and operational process through to approval.
Beyond project oversight, this role is responsible for continuously improving Creation's delivery capability by developing scalable delivery methodologies, strengthening governance, embedding AI-enabled delivery practices and ensuring Creation remains one of the leading Salesforce Education Cloud implementation partners globally.
