Job Description
Your Role: Delivery Manager
This role sits within the Delivery function in Global’s Transformation team, focused on delivering Global’s Technology & Digital product roadmaps. You’ll create and execute plans to deliver key initiatives, working closely with Product, Engineering and other business and technical stakeholders.
As a Delivery Manager at Global, you’ll partner with one or more squads to identify and resolve blockers and issues, manage dependencies and ensure delivery is on time and on budget, using modern delivery approaches and AI-enabled ways of working where they add value.
Key Responsibilities
- Squad planning & delivery (35%): Work alongside Product Owners and Tech Leads to understand the “what” and “how” of the roadmap, facilitate creation of delivery plans (“when”), and manage execution, adapting as priorities and technologies evolve.
- Squad support & unblocker (25%): Work day to day with your squad(s) to ensure they are clear, unblocked and producing high-quality outputs, leveraging AI tooling where appropriate to accelerate delivery.
- Risk, issue & dependency management (20%): Identify, track and manage risks, issues and inbound/outbound dependencies. Mitigate, resolve or escalate where needed, proactively challenging legacy approaches that limit agility.
- Communication & stakeholder management (10%): Provide clear, concise updates on progress against plans, changes, and root causes to technology and business stakeholders, including during testing, deployment, post-launch and live incidents.
- Continuous improvement & ways of working (10%): Champion modern delivery practices, such as rapid prototyping, hypothesis-driven development and AI-assisted workflows. Track and communicate squad throughput and performance, using metrics and AI-driven insights to inform improvements and foster a high-performance culture.
