Delivery Manager
About the role
A large housing association is seeking an experienced Delivery Manager to drive the successful delivery of complex change programmes.
This is a hands-on role for someone who can bring structure, pace, and clarity across multiple workstreams, teams, and suppliers. You will coordinate delivery across digital, data, design, change, and operational teams, ensuring plans are clear, risks are managed, dependencies are understood, and delivery remains focused on outcomes.
The role requires someone who is pragmatic, resilient, and confident working with senior stakeholders. You will need to challenge constructively, hold people accountable, and keep delivery moving in a pressured, regulated environment.
This is not a traditional project tracking role. The emphasis is on delivery flow, integration, dependencies, readiness, and outcomes.
Salary: £50,000 - £60,000 pa neg on experience plus benefits
Location: Remote-first, with occasional travel to London or Yorkshire
Sector: Housing Association / Social Housing / Care
What you'll do
- Lead delivery across assigned projects, workstreams, or complex delivery streams.
- Maintain plans, milestones, RAID logs, dependency trackers, and delivery reporting.
- Coordinate activity across digital, data, design, change, operational teams, and suppliers.
- Manage blockers, hand-offs, and dependencies to maintain delivery momentum.
- Work across Agile, Waterfall, and hybrid delivery approaches.
- Partner with Product Owners to maintain scope, priorities, and backlog readiness.
- Provide clear, insight-led reporting for programme leaders and senior stakeholders.
- Escalate risks early, with evidence, options, and recommended actions.
- Support readiness, adoption, operational continuity, and safe delivery.
